Why? because they might marry more than one wife?
I can sit here and list men I have met from more than 4 non-Edo tribes (by the way, Edo state is not homogeneous) that had more than one wife. Even those wey dey siddon for front seat for church.
Know the individual you are getting involved with and his family's background.

Lol
tnx

I'm so sorry to tell you that your 'husband' is married to someone else in Nigeria. He just needs you to legalise his stay in America. I have seen numerous cases like yours.

You really need to grow up kid. How dare you jump into conclusion like that You want to destroy a home. You need to display a high level of tact next time when you see issue like this or you keep shot.

Hello
I am new here but hoping to find someone who can help me. I am not sure if this is the right section but let me try any ways.
I am an American woman and married my Nigerian husband about a year and a half ago. Recently i found pictures online of him and another woman of what appears to be a traditional wedding. I have googled Edo weddings and got some information. I have confronted my husband with the issue.
He has explained that he didn't marry the girl despite they are dressed in Orange beads and kissing that he done an introduction ceremony only so that he could pass from a boy to a man to gain other rights.
Sorry if this is not very clear as i know no technical words to describe this situation and don't clearly understand what has been done.
But i am hoping someone can explain to me how to tell if it was only an introduction or if it was a traditional marriage and how do i find out from the USA if he is married.
Thanks for any help

The first thing you need to do is be the best wife you can be
If you are a good wife the dude will forget about any woman in Nigeria
If you are helping him with GC don't use that opportunity to try control the relationship
If you do
You will pay for it
Re: Traditional Edo Wedding Or Introduction by nickxtra(m): 2:49pm On Jan 14, 2015
@findingtruth, pls now that you have gotten several conflicting comments on whether your hubby is married or not, can you now bring him on this Forum, to enable him read what his fellow Nigerians have said concerning the rites? I think inviting him here will enable him to tell members of this forum what actually transpired and I believe his denial and explanations to members will give you a reprief of the impending catastrophic heart problem that the purported marriage would have occassioned to you.

@ poster just be strong. You should expect anything from Nigerian men especially when they want to get something from you.
The truth must be told. Your husband is married to someone else especially the exchange of drinks thats a sign that they have tied the knot and it is well recognized here in africa. please dont go and kill your self o else the new wife will just enjoy everything. take care of yourself and unborn bay and please for the sake of the child dont do anything funny.

else the wife will come there and join you people and he will tell you is the sister. #na lie#

una wey don show here kon defend the man. You are seen

No couple wears matching attire during introduction. It is done at the traditional wedding after bride-price things plus other formalities have taken place.
