really op no one is focusing you to do a white wedding.
just say you don't want to do it, than coming here to rant that it's unafrican. There is always a court marriage which is way much cheaper and faster, if that's your problem.

the trad marriage does it offer a certificate to prove that you are both married? i think not correct me if am wrong. that the most important thing in a wedding the marriage certificate.



There are many things we do in Africa that's not a part of our culture from the beginning. you may as well throw your college degree in to the bin since it's un African. you may as well stop typing in English and start typing in your native dialect because every other thing is unafrican. you may as well stop wearing western attire because its unafrican. you may as well drop your religion and go back to the African religion of sango and all because its unAfrican.

if you claim you want to boost the African culture.


ladies who tend to just be normal and don't apply facial makeup are seen as members of the s.u. when she does she is suffering from cultural slavery.
The generalization in your post irritates me.
i know some ladies who prefer trad wedding to the white one.

everyone knows that the white wedding isn't from Christianity. so what exactly are you blabbing about?

inferiority complex
i laugh in Swahili ain't you part of those Africans?
who discriminate others who are trying to continue the old culture by referring to some of things done has barbaric? you will be the first to point fingers at people who decided to wore bare on their feet and tie wrapper.

#smh

hypocrisy at it's peak.

i get that, but whose fault is that?

ask yourself that question.

no one is putting anything above the culture if we were, there will be no trad wedding at all to begin with.


like i mentioned earlier a certificate is not issued after a trad wedding so indirectly when you sleep with her after the trad, it is seen as not right. As you guys are according to the law not married.

white wedding is purely useless.

A wedding should be done the african as independent Africans...the English man would not do his wedding the African way
We are not slavesbut if u choose to be a slave, don't come here deceiving people about certificate because you can get marriage certificates from traditional weddings

joywendy:


did u read my post?

correct me if am wrong. do you get a certificate from a traditional marriage?

thanks for the correction and you too alexchoce

Why would the English man do his wedding in the African way when he isn't African?
Are we not the ones who want do it their way?

if you choose to do a trad wedding and then getting a certificate, fine!

it's better than coming here to rant that the white wedding is useless, no one is focusing you people to do one.



we are as africans are not yet independent we still depend alot on the west than ourselves am not saying because of this we should abandon our culture no.

we are the roots of our own problem. We place too much emphasis on things that we shouldn't even be looking at, instead of solving and facing the real problems at hand.

i'm not a slave neither am i deceiving anyone here.
i just gave my own personal opinion and the truth. You are entitled to yours.

have a lovely night.

Who said it is a sin to sleep with your wife when her bride price has been paid and other necessary rites performed??

Smh. Colonial mentality

A pastor, Pastor Chris Ojigbani said white wedding is not biblical, and I agree with him totally. The weddings done in times past were done in jewish traditional customs, so who can now tell me traditional/customary weddings is not necessary? What rubbish. I have made up my mind a long time ago that I am not doing a 'white wedding'.
