Mrs.Chima:
There is no such thing as early nor late marriages. There is no time frame when a person should marry and each marriage is tailor to the couple not the spectators.

ebamma: early marriage or late marriage doesn't matter,what matters is love and understanding between the man and the woman

wynezz: its depends on d individual,ma gf is already pressuring me 4 marriage despite d fact that she is 22 and am 27 and we both doin youth service.i jst normal for female to be tinkin abt marriage afta nysc while guy tink abt gud job and money.

Agimor: This topic seem to be very vast as different folks hold diverse opinion about it and also have a lot to do with the individual male or female is said to have the right to take or make decisions that pertains to how he or she wants to live his or her life.some desire to marry early to build their lives together,while others want to meet up with life demands before getting another person involved in their life's affairs.whether you marry early or not,you both need all it takes to make the marriage workout.and this open the podium for my question which do you prefer nairalanders share your views.

76Naira: If you plan to have kids, the earlier the better.
They need you strong and youthful as they grow. A mother at 28 to 33 is way better than at 40 unless you just couldn't help it.
A father at 29 to 33 is way better than 42.

My wife was 24.5 years old and I, 29 when we got married. We have had our planned 2 kids and my wife just turned 30.

If you generally don't have your priorities right, adding age would not necessarily help.

If you have to marry late, stay fit enough to manage tantrums and sleepless nights for they are as sure as time!

F00028: my uncle married his first wife in her early teens. by the time she was thirty she had given birth to her last child.

in her forties now, her daughters look like her sisters and she looks ten years younger than most people her age.

the earlier the better!

obowunmi:

When did he marry the second wife?

M M M: None

chucky234: Early marriage is no doubt the best as they will afford you enough time to support your children and watch them grow into the adult you want them to be.
I got married at 32 and was just too late for me but I only realised how late it was when I saw my younger sister's daughter who is 13 this year while my first child is just 3 years age,few years from now my younger sister will probably be nursing her first grandchild while my daughter is still in primary school.
I sincerely advice people to marry early if you are able to find that special one early enough,don't think twice oooo

^ Your view is very Non-Nigerian (western).

@OP, Definitely early marriage (girl should be between 22-25, the guy should be between 27-32).
All things being equal, it gives the couple ample time to be with/enjoy their children. You don't wanna be old and senile when you give birth to your first child. etc.

nanaman: Lateness no dey for marriage,early or late God's time is the best..If you marry early and u no get early pinkin nko?? abi no be pinkin we all dey find for marriage before happiness..mcheew..ONPE

black_beau: I think the age you marry should depend on your level of maturity
