I met a lady while i was in A.B.U Zaria as a student and we both fell in love. This relationship had been going on for 4 years before an uncle of mine informed me that he would be visiting me at home. i was eager to introduce my wife to be to him. This uncle is just about 8 years older than me and had been married for about 2 years when he visited. when he saw my fiance he looked shocked and i thought maybe he mistook her for somebody else or that they have heard relationship in the past. to be brief, my lady happened to be his wife's younger sister. I called my parents to inform them and i was shocked about what i heard from them. they said the tradition forbids such union that i should break my relationship of many years. it is very hard for me to do as well as for my lady.
We are resolute to proceed with our wedding with or without our parents consent. We are hopping to go to the registry by July,2010 ending.
I have serious pains in my heart now about this and Please i need your candid advice. thank you

I laugh in yoruba! Im not yoruba so cant say 4 sure bt its left 4 u to verify and get their consents b4 doing anything! Let me share a sma£ tori wit u. During my service year, i v corp member girl who was a yoruba, she was opposed marrying a guy (stil from yoruba) by d her parents just dis your case, after persistent pleas and dragings, d duo went and got married in a friends church who is a pastor plus their court marriage to give it legal backing! In d far north, where we served, d man once came and visited her, dnt forget that every night with d help of midnight calls, they will always pray to bind and cast watever against their union from 12.30 to 4.30am. D judgement day came, after d man's visit, d woman took in, later on, she fell sick and despite all that was done to save her, my neighbour just died like that. As if it was not enough, d parents said they wil take d corpse as they never recognised any marriage that took place. So my dear b wise if u lv your gal and ursf. There might be something that they have seen that u hv not seen! Tread with caution.

otukpo:

i trust them babes.

otukpo:

i sorry for the poster. U no go fit leave the babe.
Is it their delicacy or their bedmatic abilities?
They know how to snatch a married man's heart not to talk of a single one.
Once u are hooked, no going back. and i wonder the Y girl dt will beat her to it.

Mine is kind of unique, i have been going out with a girl who is yoruba as myself only she is ijebu, which didnt go down well with my parent. dey tried to put an end to our relationship but we endured. We started our relationship 11 years ago when both families were family friends, but when my parent discovered that we had something going the family friendship ended, it has been arunning battle since then.

A lot transpired along the way, my parent claiming that dey have prayed about it that there is nothing that wil come out of the union, but today, i have a son and we will be making our union legal very very soon. my parent hostility towards her has reduced, she even calls my wife behind my back to ask of her well being. IT PAID OFF

Akosbaba:
