American Dating Venda Bae Preps for Lobola Talks in TikTok Video: "Uncles Will Be Flying to SA"

• A gent was honing his negotiation skills when he purchased fruit at the market
• The American guy is dating a babe from Mzansi, and he hopes that his successful skills will help him score a wife when he negotiates Lobola
• Netizens rushed to the comment section to give him their two cents on the matter

An American fellow practised his lobola negotiation skills by negotiating prices of fresh produce.

His facial reactions may hint that his skills are on the right track, but are they enough to convince the uncles to give their daughter away? Only time will tell.

@beyondborder_jh’s video on Tiktok had other men dating South Africans hoping their skills were as top-notch as his. The chap sharpens his negotiation skills by haggling with a fruit vendor selling watermelon. Although the watermelon sells at R30, the man gets a 33.3% discount when the lady sells it for R20.

If this video indicates his lobola readiness, all he needs now is to bring his uncles over so that they can also sharpen their skills. He might have to be educated on the lobola process, as the process requires that he send his uncles to his bae’s home so they can negotiate the lobola on his behalf.

The gent, dating a Venda woman, recently trended for experiencing loadshedding in the country. This was a unique experience for him, considering that he is from the United States and loadshedding essentially doesn’t exist for them.
