Shame on you! You're talking from you experience with your wife. How does she feel despite being a sitting senator.

Useless man.

Look at what a grown up ass man and public figure said publicly.

Inferiority complex, timidity, fear and naivety have finished this man.

Worst mistake/senator to represent Enugu North.

Bush man.

In Africa, we marry for children. That is why after few years of marriage and there is no child, the extended family start exerting pressure. Questions like "what is the problem"? "When are we coming to eat rice"? Each question is alluding to your inability as a married person to produce your kind.

mmsen:


Yes. The implication of what he is saying is that Africans have no room for love.

Forever in 'survival' mode.

Third world syndrome

Naked truth. This is good summary.

affable4:
Bush man.

Why is he a bush man?
Are you married?
Do u have kids?
Pls tell me why he is a bush man.

JeffreyD1:
Well the main reason for marriage is not to make babies

But in Africa nko? The senator was talking about Africa's reason.

A Northern senator interrupted him?

The irony

I wonder the type of love a man married to more than a wife can profess to have.

And I include men with a wife and concubines.

That was before,now in africa marraige is even losing its value.men and women are now becoming baby parents,due to stress in marraiges.

SageMK:
Is he insinuating Africans are incapable of love?

Read what he said and understand his context..

JeffreyD1:

What is the main reason in Africa?

If u like fvciking .people will teh u to go and marry.can u image?

He said nothing but the truth.

If you marry as a rich man and die, your wife would claim your property and get herself another man.

If you marry as a poor man and die, your wife would run into another man's house.

Either way, everything about you is forgotten; the only legacy you may leave behind is your children.

Love is a sham, especially in Africa.

He made a very valid point. The media might use the headline to cause confusion though. Everyone should know his or her blood group from birth. And if you claim you don't marry for children, if you meet someone whose blood group and rhesus factor doesn't go with your own and you are deeply in love, please go ahead and get married but before that, do a vasectomy. Both of you. And if in the later stage you need children, there are too many children in orphanage homes that needs to be adopted

ephraim18:
He speak the truth... Typical African man

African woman nko? You're not aware that mothers are the ones who pressure their daughters the most to get married and bear grand children for her carry on her laps?
Fathers are the ones who pressure their daughters to get married asap

you know the northerners like to pretend alot, they 'll tell you it's the prophet's instruction...

Sam Egwu and Chukwuka Utazi are very very backward dunces representing their respective senatorial districts. I pity those districts. These backbenchers can never show up on anything affecting Igbo or even their zones, but only to appear and be talking of sickle cell anaemia, maybe, they are AS and foolishly married AS and now have 3 or 4 sickle cell kids.

You have your own reason why you marry,I have mine

Hahhaahahah.for some families, de love husband and wife are supposed to show on themselves, they direct all they energy on the children ,unknowingly making things difficult for the children

The senator is actually saying the truth.

Child bearing is not the main purpose of marriage though, you can still have children without marrying.

Somewhere in Nigeria, birthday control is a zero to the people, but a very big boast to number of wives and when talking of children if you can't boast of 20, you have not arrived. I don't want to be amongst those causing division in Nigeria so I am trying very hard to be careful in picking my words. I believe and hope that someday good will come to Nigeria.

EVILFOREST:

What about INDIA and CHINA
CHINA has similar Land Mass with the US and Canada...
CHINA is 1.5 Billion.
INDIA is 1.3 Billion
US is 310 million.
CANADA is 36 million.

Meanwhile these COUNTRIES are 10 Times bigger than Nigeria.
..... and NIGERIA is 200 Fucking Million.
We are Finished. .... Situation can only get worse

one black head African/Nigerian can't rule a country like Nigeria with such population..

In as much I do not support the breaking up of Nigeria, I think that will be the best option let everyone manage their own prob..

We are too large to be ruled by one black African person except the Britain will come back and take over from us..

FlordFlorez:
He's very correct

So you can marry a woman u don't love so long as she will be able to bear children for u?

There is nothing like "love" in any marriage in the world."Love" is a term created by advertisers to sell wedding dresses and rings and romance books and movies.
Getting married is strictly a political and business decision/arrangement.No emotions should be involved

mmsen:



Even worse none of those countries has a population that has doubled in 30 years like Nigeria. And even now Nigerian women refuse to embrace family planning.

Because of religion and upbringing, making learning about sex education taboo and culture of having as many kids as possible.

Psoul:


So you can marry a woman u don't love so long as she will be able to bear children for u?

will you marry that person you love is both of you are of the genotype AS.

Try to read and comprehend before throwing tantrum about an issue you know nothing about.

My Senator is absolutely correct. You will agree with him if you are married, more especially if the union is not bringing children.

Don't know about Africa ... But in Nigeria.. He is 100% correct.. You all can continue with deceit and denial all you want... Another thing is the parents see the children as an extension of their property... Who marriage hepp??

hammerP:
Marriage is for children.

That is correct.

.marriage is not only for kids okpo...anybody can have kids
