Your Most Cherished Nigerian Culture. by earTHMama: 10:24pm On Dec 21, 2008 |
What aspect of Nigerian culture do you love most? Can you name the culture whether it's in your tribe or not?. The food, festivals, attire, dialect, accent etc. |

respect for elders.living in this country has really made me cherish that part of our culture.(and i mean respect not fear of elders as fearing elders is different from respecting them).the kids in this country are so rude and ill mannered. |

hausa marriage |
Re: Your Most Cherished Nigerian Culture. by earTHMama: 6:45pm On Dec 22, 2008 |
hausa marriage I don't know what's lovely about 12 year old girls getting married. That is a very nasty culture and should be obliterated by every possible means. |

I think they mean the beating of the husband, Funmi Figured you'd love that |
Re: Your Most Cherished Nigerian Culture. by earTHMama: 6:59pm On Dec 22, 2008 |
I think they mean the beating of the husband, FunmiHa ha I love it like hell. I wish it'll be adopted as a national culture. I think it's a Tiv thing and not hausa. No hausa man can endure that pain. |

how abt the old women doing the oriki (what do they call the thing with the tongue sef like a song) i forgot but i can do it with my tongue. hausa wedding is fascinating to watch as long as it is not a little girl. i have seen a little girl's wedding. we were all there to sing and cheer her up. she was crying like crazy and they had to carry her with force. when they finally get her to the man's house, she was all covered only a few closed friends could see her. i was her friend too i asked her to run away in little girl's mind but too late. so i went to the wedding. her gift plenty sha many zani, dankwali, jabaki, tero, powder, materials so much. interesting to watch and could make you cry. |

I love mmanwu(masqurade). I also love igbo traditional marriage(igba nkwu nwanyi). Especially where the girls lock up the fiance and demand the money from the in laws to unlock the door so she can come and see her husband. Women can be mean in that area. |
Re: Your Most Cherished Nigerian Culture. by KarmaMod(f): 7:20pm On Dec 22, 2008 |
*Hauwa*: I like that |
Re: Your Most Cherished Nigerian Culture. by Hauwa1: 7:26pm On Dec 22, 2008 |
lol i guess that's the only fun part because you can't hear the wailing and crying only the old women tongues which overpower the little girls voice |
Re: Your Most Cherished Nigerian Culture. by AloyEmeka9: 7:29pm On Dec 22, 2008 |
Is stripping and lap dancing a Nigerian culture? |
Re: Your Most Cherished Nigerian Culture. by earTHMama: 10:27pm On Dec 22, 2008 |
hausa wedding is fascinating to watch as long as it is not a little girl.The qualifier in bold is troubling. Finally, someone is accepting the truth. Praise God. |

The last time I check, we've got no Culture |
Re: Your Most Cherished Nigerian Culture. by Hauwa1: 2:24am On Dec 23, 2008 |
Earthmama, we know the truth in nig. just that it is hard to accept. did you know that when some northern women give birth to a girl they do use egg to widen the kitten? i have seen it. i didn't say it o |
Re: Your Most Cherished Nigerian Culture. by KarmaMod(f): 2:26am On Dec 23, 2008 |
*Hauwa*: The baby girl's kitten or the mother's? |
Re: Your Most Cherished Nigerian Culture. by 4Play(m): 2:28am On Dec 23, 2008 |
Heard about pulling a baby girl's nipples so she will grow big breasts as an adult? Not something I made up, heard this in Enugu a few years ago. . . .sounds like a pedo's dream excuse. |
Re: Your Most Cherished Nigerian Culture. by Hauwa1: 2:29am On Dec 23, 2008 |
the baby's. a little rubbing movement. i heard then it helps to widen it. it is like women do to other parts of the body when a baby is born. |
Re: Your Most Cherished Nigerian Culture. by KarmaMod(f): 2:31am On Dec 23, 2008 |
so these "mothers" are aiding sexual child abuse so these men can rape them or what the hell is the reaosn for this |
Re: Your Most Cherished Nigerian Culture. by chiogo(f): 2:36am On Dec 23, 2008 |
tRoOE:Hahahahaha, lmfao!! @topic, I'm still thinking.::. .::. Oh yeah, I remember those days when we go home(village) and my siblings, cousins, and I would go to relatives' houses and the adults would give us money as a form of celebrating christmas. dunno if that is a culture. But those were fun times! |
Re: Your Most Cherished Nigerian Culture. by Hauwa1: 2:42am On Dec 23, 2008 |
who knows that's why they feel the kid is no kid because kitten already widen by mama. |

especially the market women you just got done bargaining with where you bring their ware from 1500 to 150 . as long as the abuse wasn't for you, it's so fun listening to them |
