Reasons Why You Should Not Get Married To A Nigerian Man by TheInkheart(f): 6:42pm On Apr 30, 2015
Reasons Why You Should Not Get Married To A Nigerian Man

It is no doubt that Nigerian men make wonderful lovers; they are sweet, kind, thoughtful, maybe not very romantic but romantic still and good in bed too. It is also no doubt that these men are very rare to come by in Nigeria. Maybe by default or societal conditioning, most Nigerian men are so not it; they are egoistic, chauvinistic and make terrible husband materials. You wonder why I think Nigerian men; at least most of them, won't make good husbands, read the reasons listed below:

-They Are Chauvinists: pardon the strong word "chauvinists" but Nigerian men prefer to stick to their bias opinion about women and their responsibilities in the home. The take the "head" duty way too serious and often push the women aside expecting them to follow their will and do as they say. If you marry a Nigerian man, you will probably end up as the less important voice in the home or wherever the man rather than as a partner you are to him.

- They Are Polygamous In Nature: In Nigeria, some men believe men are entitled to as many women as they can handle and so, they are free to marry more than one wife or have affairs with other women. With a Nigerian man, it is never certain that you will be the only woman in his life. To save yourself the heartbreaks of discovering condoms and hotel receipts in his pocket or worse, finding out he has secret children, please do not marry a Nigerian man.

- They Are Not Romantic: you want flowers, a guy to follow you to the salon, exotic lunches, dinners, vacations, chocolates and breakfast in bed? Then, a Nigerian man is not the man you should marry. They often consider these things as cheesy and unneccesary. Maybe they will try on your birthdays and valentine's day (that's if they don't come up with excuses to forget). The most romantic thing some Nigerian men will ever get for you is packs of food from an eatery or drinks and few back/foot rubs just right before sex.

- You Will Be A Nanny To A Grown Man: if God blesses you with a Nigerian man and a somehow scattered one, you are in soup. You've just graduated to being a nanny to a full grown man. You will pick his socks, shirts and what not after him when he gets back from work, even flush the toilet when he's done. Be ready to face a sulking man if the food is not ready on time or you try to get him to do something for you when his favourite game or tv show is on. You will have to pet and stroke his ego almost all the time to make him happy.

- They Have The Wife Beating Syndrome: either by societal conditioning or home training, some Nigerian men believe it is very normal to hit a woman; that is the only way to put them back on track when they are wrong. It is no secret that some Nigerian men will beat their wives and feel no regret about it; it is somehow the woman's fault the man is so angry to the extent he has to hit her. If you're not ready to lose your fine skin to the itchy palms of a man, please steer clear of Nigerian men.

Nigerian men are also good liars. They smoke and drink heavily and blame it on the society's deteriorating condition; they have to "keep body and soul together". Many Nigerian men have money problem; it is either they are misers or heavy spenders. Some prefer to show off the wealth they do not possess by living way beyond their standards. And the most annoying part is that many Nigerian men are Mr nice guy in public and Mr stingy in their homes which you will agree is not a very attractive trait especially in someone you want to spend the rest of your life with.

I know by now, some guys are already hissing and cursing me probably but it is undeniable that many Nigerian guys have terrible attitudes that make them really undesirable husband materials. I mean, it is tough enough we have to cope with the many issues in the country, men problems should not be added to our weighty wahala. We deserve men who understand us (at least to a reasonable extent), shower us with the affection we need, pamper us and make us feel very special and loved but how many Nigerian men can beat their chests that they can be the man of our dreams or at least, part of the dreams?!!

Is this how your father treat your mother? Just because your father treats your mom like a slave and badly, doesn't mean all Nigerian men will treat their wives badly

It is quite a big generalization but some of them are true.
You guys should stop complaining and work on the few ones that apply to you on that list.
If by any chance all of them apply to you, pls don't marry o so that you won't kill someone's daughter

I may agree with the being romantic bit but that could be said for men all over the world too and like the Poster above said, some of us Naija women are not deeply into the romance thing for whatever reason. As for the rest, I disagree. I see and have seen enough Naija men around me to dispute such grand proclamations.

The OP is being crafty. This topic with its click bait title is primarily aimed at generating traffic for her blog.

In dealing with women the key is to pay attention to what they do not what they say. While the OP is here listing reasons why members of her gender should stay clear of Nigerian men, dozens if not hundreds of women, despite countless warnings about how men are dogs etc, will be rushing to the altar to marry these men every Saturday.

Good, bad or evil, the fact remains that women need to get married to men. Especially Nigerian women. Marriage to a Nigerian man is the best chance for the average Nigerian woman to attain to that level of respectability that society, nay women themselves, have place on themselves. Through marriage she significantly increases her chances of living the "good life", the man is obligated to provide for her and her kids in exchange for sex or intimacy. For almost all women living in Nigeria their best options for marriage lie with the Nigerian man and despite all the campaign by people like the OP, he is a prized commodity.
All he needs is a bit of personal success or the appearance of it and women will be all over him like white on rice.
