This is most interesting topic i ve ever read on this forum. i cherish sincere opinions and contributions made so far.
Most female graduate have this mentality of 'NEVER' to non graduate but it was done on me that destiny does not based on certificates.
And marriage should not be structure on academics but love & compartibilty.
please note that it is a priviledge to be educated, some drop out of school not because their not intelligent but due to one problem or the other.
if a guy has a vision, regardless his age he can still be a graduate after marriage with help of his partner, its a matter of time.
Afterall, Obasanjo is just trying to be a graduate.

It depends.
Some of the smartest, successful and interesting people I've met never even set foot in college. I used to trip like shage for this one Naija guy that didn't make it to college because his family was really poor. That boy always made it to top of our class and if I'd stayed in Naija I would have pursued a relationship with him no question even though he would have been at home while I was in university! He's just now going to school for his bachelors in Chemistry in St Croix to become a doctor when he graduates. Like someone mentioned, Bill Gates dropped out of college and some of the world's most influential people don't have a higher degree. Intelligence is not necessarily based on education. Naija peeps just like bookwork.

It's ok for a womam to be with a man with no degree. But chai Love or no love, religious or not. You are in for nagging and sometime over controlling man. Cos 99.9% of the time he is battling inferiority complex and he will do all it takes to grow his ego.

All said and done it can be catastrophic. I for one will not marry a man that is not a graduate. My Aunt a lawyer married a man that is not a graduate. My mum told her not to.My mums argument was that the guy my develop an inferiority complex with time and moreover their thinking will be on different levels. My aunt went ahead and got married and it almost cost her her life. It got to a stage where if she goes to see a male client he will accuse her of having an affair. It all came to a head when he poured petrol on her and tried to set her ablaze. You might argue and say its him as an individual but I tell u it was a gradual process that started off with his feeling inferior

Whoever findeth a wife, findeth favour in the Lord- not a graduate or trophy wife. As for me, I can marry a non grad. I was not born a graduate. Word bro. I think this topic is actually meant for me. i am not a graduate but i ve a graduate as a GF, a lawyer for that matter. I think what really matters is if the Guy has got a clear vision in life.

Nigerians Believe in paper qualification too much. well as it has been said there would always be class struggle according to Karl Marx "the history of any existing society is the history of class struggle" I can marry any set either graduate or non grad. so far there is love inbetween. Life goes on.

well, i thank god for you and i wish you all the best. the problem at hand also has to do with the guys mentality, there is no denying the fact that most uneducated guys even without knowing it act out their felling of inferiority in different ways. they tend to read meaning in anything their patner says, and their reaction is most time detrimental to the relationship. in as much as education should not be the basis of any relationship, its effect cannot be over looked. i must sincere to let you know that out of every ten cases of such relationship, seven is bound to fail. to me its a risk not worth taking.

frank 3.16 there is no denying the fact that most uneducated guys even without knowing it act out their felling of inferiority in different ways r u saying that even educated guys don't have or exhibit inferiority complex as well? despite their Bsc,Mba, Phd Guy see the most important is your mind set and focus ability, because most guys in this situation find themselves there for some reason that was outside their control as at then. Using myself as an example:being the first child, I had to drop out of school (UI) to work n support my mum so we can send my younger ones to school because my mum's financial muscles were not strong enough. now let me ask u a qtion, Is there always room for improvment in every aspect of life? think about it n let the answer remain with you.
