Inter-tribal Marriages In Nigeria (the Untold Story) by TheArbiter: 10:44am On Apr 07, 2012 |
The aim of this post is threefold: a. To highlight unsung Nigerians who have taken the extra step beyond tribe to find marital happiness b. To demostrate the fact that love knows not bounds. c. To demostrate the hidden view of unity among Nigeria's diverse tribes. I know there will be pessimists, tribalists, religious bigots or disenting voices to this post. Please, kindly just steer clear of the post. I'm averse to hateful, spiteful, caustic or abusive comments. I know i cant stop such comments being put up but i hope the Mods can help in censoring such comments. The families i present below are those i have known who have been married for over 5 years (no relationship to me). Interested Nairalanders can follow my format below in making their posts or devise a better format. 1. Husband(Gwari), Wife(Margi), Kids(5), Location(Lagos) Comments: Polygamous Muslim family. 2 of the kids are varsity graduands. 2.
