Her people were blind all these years that she was cohabiting with the said man. There was no outcry from her people even when she gave birth out of wedlock.
Her people now demand for marriage after her death.

Who are the people

midehi2:
when bride price is like 'whooping' how will a common man marry.....mtcheeeeeew tradition

viktor01:
Ibo and their culture. Am sure that man would be made to pay through his anus, In his next life, he will take to his heels on hearing the name Ebonyi.
Chai...! this is what the English man calls "hot-okro soup".

You would have just passed the thread or even input a Smiley instead of this poo!!! I am a Firstly a Nigerian from the South South Area (Niger Delta) full blooded.

Though i'm not a traditionalist but correct me if I am wrong "the woman cohabited with the man before her death" all her people want is for her brideprice to be paid so she can be given a befitting burial.

Our tradition is who we are. Forget the shiiii we are borrowing from the west.

Crucify me if you wish. IT IS FINISHED

I strongly believe this happens everywhere. Any tribe that permits a man and woman to cohabit without any rite and produce children, must imbibe this tradition, because pratically, the lady didn't die a single.

Its not new to me

Luckygurl:


I beg to disagree..
Money can't be the problem here more especially when the lady has given birth.

In my villa, as far as the lady has had children for the man, the bride price is reduced to the least amount possible....
Funny but true...

This happens every other time, two people cohabiting with kids involved. Not as if they are rich but doing well for themselves, yet to pay bride price na big wahala..

viktor01:


What's the name of that your village again make I know whether na where my Ifeoma come from.

For the record, lemme educate some fooools whose mind have started going to several stupidd places because of this thread.

The woman's family as a matter of tradition still owns the woman and her child and the woman will be buried in her fathers compound (because the man did not pay bride price) so the man is now begging to keep the child and also to get the woman back to his own fathers house to bury her there.

To sum extent u at right bt in my place even if u pay her bride in life or death she must b buried in her fathers compound.






Finally, it costs av average of 200k to complete a woman's marriage rites in igbo land.....

Fmartin:
When and where is the marriage rites gonna take place? Can't miss d jollof rice nd oda foods.......RIP to d dead wife.

Our traditions are barbaric. Before Mary Selessor came twins were being thrown into an evil forest. In some places even now Widows are made to drink water used to wash the corpse of their dead husbands and their hair is shaved off. So if this woman had been co-habiting with a foreigner overseas and her body is sent home the foreigner will be made to come to Nigeria and made to do burial rites, shee? Satanic cultures and traditions hold people in bondage. Wake up and get free

Do you think that man can claim his child if that rite is not






performed?

A people's tradition defines them.

Lemme use a little example. If you go to a drink joint and you are served a bottle of drink and in the process of you using cork screw the bottle of drink slips and shatter, wont you pay for the drink?

If my brain dey my shoe, then keep on wearing your slippers

By Ogochukwu Anioke

The family of a deceased woman has suspended her burial rites until her ‘husband’ who she was cohabiting with performs her wedding rites. The woman Chinyere Mbam was been bitten to death by a snake [/b]while returning from the wake-keep of her friend, Oge Ogashi who passed on.

[b]She was taken to a traditional healing home in the area for treatment and thereafter back to the husband’s home where she gave up the ghost when she could not respond to the treatment.

Her uncle, Ishiali Ikwe confirmed her death.

But the deceased’s family have mandated his ‘husband’ Stephen Mbam of Enyi Igwe village Ezzainyimagu community in Izzi local government area of Ebonyi State, to carry out her traditional marriage rites before she is buried. It was gathered that the woman had been co-habiting with Stephen for three years and their relationship produced a child even though he did not fulfill her marriage rites.

According to the Uncle, the family has put the burial on hold until Mbam performs traditional marriage on the deceased. He further said that Mbam’s family, in line with the tradition of the land, have scheduled a date for payment of the bride price to be preceded by the wedding.
