God! What did i just read? I cant believe that In this age and time, young enlightened ppl like the op and those liking his post are of the opinion that educating a girl child is a waste. Plz parents, if u can afford it, educate ur girl child, theres more to education than ending up with a good job and getting rich. Infact may i use this opportunity and medium to celebrate my Dad as i always do, everyday of my life. We are 6 girls and our only brother who is the last and the only one still in uni. As a matter of fact we are the ones paying his fees now cos we hv asked our parents to relax and enjoy themselves. We are all graduates and am proud to say we are all outstanding in our various fields, some of us are professionals some are not, but thats not even the remarkable thing about us. I bet u, u would never meet a group of beautiful, smart, witty, confident sisters with very high self esteem like us. Infact when our husbands come together, the unknowingly talk endlessly about us and compare us like its a game of who married the smartest sister. I thank God for our parents that believed in us especially my Dad who never considered us lesser humans because we wr girls. We are not rich (that kind of world definition of rich) our husbands are not rich either but our parents are reaping the fruits of their labour. Even my uncles hv made envious statements to my dad on several occasions. I can tell u that he raised better children and is a prouder father than most of them who had more of boys. My friends always say that i cant hv a conversation without mentioning my dad, and its true because i just cant stop celebrating the man.

Abeg give ur children, whether boy or girl the best education u can afford, make una no mind op.

Pls, take note of wat I wrote, Its written der dt "or someone beta dan her father". So if her father happens to be an irresponsible father, she will rather go for a responsible guy "someone better dan her father".

But what many girls request their BF to get them is what their father can't even dream of getting for her.

The koko is that some of them, their family can't afford 3 square meals a day, but they wanna marry super rich dude living in banana Island.
Middle class or a young man who's still trying to survive isn't for erm.

That's my point.

Ah this is lubbish o. What if she doesn't plan on getting a job, so you won't pay for her secondary school education either? Where do you draw the line? And what's to say that girls with a tonnn of education still don't want to marry "a rich man" and sit at home all day? How does it affect you? You as their future father should just do your duty and pay for the highest level of education they can/want to attain. They can work out the rest in their matrimonial houses.

Honestly, all of you that are screaming 'yes yes' over here probably don't have any kids yet so I'm not so surprised.
forget dat talk jare, y won't it affect me as a father? After taking the pains and sacrificing a lot to see my daughter through school n she ends up with one idiot dat can't even feed her and her kids, what father will be happy with that? If am educating my girl child, its for her to be up and doing by herself.

My dear, wat has been d fate of those females dt built der lives wf dose ambitious guys so far? U even juxtaposed urslf wf wat u wrote abt d wife wife being used as rituals! Are the first wives nt always d ones building "their lives" wf d so-called ambitious guys but still end up being used for rituals? Well, d best tin is to build ur life urslf wfout depending on anybody because nobody is trustworthy.

I wonder why many people hace derailed this thread with this parallel arguement.

The write up is nver about faulting the desire of a lady to be with a rich guy...for petes sake its her choice and let her achieve it or die trying...her headache.

This write up is a clarion call for the girl child in Nigeria to focus on using the same opportunity a boy child is expected to utilize to bcome that rich guy they want to also become a rich lady,an achiever,a success and having a rich man should be by chance and not a do or die thing.

I am an enterprenure and a politician and it has never for once in my life conciously or unconciouly crossed my mind that i should hook up with a rich lady or one from a rich home...that is the same spirit every female graduate should have and not make a mess up all their years of stressful education by grtaduating and starts a job of richmanhunting...it is sickening and crazy.

for those ladies out there who beliv in themselves,the achievers,those who are ready to make it a do or die affair to become successful with or without a man....those who are ready to say a BIG THANK YOU to their sponsor i say Kudos.

How much is your salary? where do you work?
Are you a Nigerian living in Nigeria?

Please just chill and go back to your foolishness.Mr Jobful man.

For the records,no one should pride himself as gainfully employed until you are your own boss cos that job can be taking away from you in a flash and that lady who married you for that job or money will leave you IF that job is no more there.

My broda i honestly dont know wat has gone wrong with the reasoning faculty of many naija ladies these days.

They usually say im against women but each thread they castigate if well comprehended is indeed beneficial to them.

I dont expect everyone to love my write ups but please if you must condemn it at least do so with the right understanding rather than misconstruing the contents.

No woman in their right senses would seek out poor/struggling dudes before the rich ones.
Sorry guys but that is the truth.
Educated or not educated, Nigerian women will always seek out men that can take care of their financial needs.
Why?
Because the misogyny in Nigeria will always keep women from being too ambitious or independent so unless it goes away then the habit of women looking for rich guys will endure.
Consider the following:
In Nigeria,
Women cannot have too much money if not people assume she sleeps around or is a prostitute.
Women cannot spend too long getting educational degrees before marriage because they will grow old and less attractive and not be able to find a husband and everyone knows that in Nigeria getting a husband is compulsory for any woman that wants to be socially accepted.
Women should not have more money than their husbands because then they will not be 'submissive' humble, simpering waifs so ladies in search of husbands look for men who are more wealthy to marry thereby making it like women are lazy or golddiggers who are always in search of men that can take care of them.

Guys accept it and move on kwo?
Because when well wishers come out to try and change the status quo and encourage ladies to have ambition instead of focusing on marriage alone, you people will start foaming at the mouths and calling them man hating feminists.

Carry your fvcking cross you misogynistic pieces of s$hit.

How can you pass exams when your observational and comprehension skills are nil?

How does my willingness not to work affect women empowerment or my status in my home or in the society? Do you think my father gives a damn about my future marital arrangements? Who the hell are you to come from nowhere to tell me what I should or shouldn't do? Or Has my future husband reported me to you?

Its far better to marry a rich man from the get go so that you can have money or clothes or things of luxury to console yourself when he starts misbehaving.
