It's too early,maybe 25 yes.You need to be mature though and have a stable means of income.

If you have the money to cater for a family why not.

For those saying a man is not matured enough at 22years,they should understand maturity has absolutely nothing to do with age

Maturity doesn’t mean age; it means sensitivity, manners, and how you react.

However,whatever you think I still maintain that 22 is too early.Let me give you homework at what age does an average Nigerian man obtain first degree? Physically speaking is or can a 22 years old man be deemed to be mature?

dont look at it from that point.
mind you,many Nigerians doesn't need a degree
to run their own things.
just give your reason why its not advisable.

Laughs,and when has the acquisition of a first degree become a requirement to get married(not everyone will go to school).

Well obviously your statistic is based on the AVERAGE nigerian,you may have the point (average nigerian doesnt apply to the whole nation).

There are people who are financial independent at 22(ofcourse they may be rare)

Think about this,a student enters the university at 15years,graduates at 19years(ofcourse I have a cousin who will be graduating next month and he is only 19years and 4months,so I know what I'm saying)
Does his nysc by 20years.Imagine having a well to do father or gets a high paying job,so tell me why he wont be financial independent.

Too early. . .
Maturity doesnt mean experienced.
Re: Is It Advisable To Marry At 22-25 As A Man? by Okijajuju1(m): 9:20am On Oct 29, 2012
IMO

Nobody should marry under the age of 25... Both male & female..

Marry wen u feel u are ready. In the UK people marry as early as 19. Some fail some don't. Some also marry @ 40 and still fail.

Yes its a very good idea to marry at 22 years, because by 45 you already have a child that is a graduate, young enough to have good time with your grand children.

But for most Nigerians guys, at 60 to 70 years they are still paying school fees

Thier's nothing wrong with it if both partie's are mentally ready, i know a guy that got married at the age of 23, and he's taking good care of his family; were as i know other guy's who are financially capable and between the age 37 and 40, yet they hav'nt settled down; so believe me marriage realy isn't about old age.
Re: Is It Advisable To Marry At 22-25 As A Man? by joey4jo: 9:36am On Oct 29, 2012
May I add that my room mate in school is 23 and would have gotten married this december if all had gone well.. Its like a tradition in their family.
In university I had course mates and friends that got married and still came to school, and yes there were guys..
The girls I can't even count them.

Maturity doesnt come with age...it comes with enlightenment......life experience....and knowledge.

There are certain decisions in ones life that should never be opened to the gallery, and this is one of them.
Marriage is a serious matter, and with a 50% (or higher) failure rate, do it only when you are absolutely certain you are ready.

Marry when you are ready and can afford a family of your own without depending on parents.

There is no need for a man so young to marry. If someone is trying to pressurize you into marriage then put some distance between yourself and that person.

Re: Is It Advisable To Marry At 22-25 As A Man? by overkillR(f): 9:50am On Oct 29, 2012
Are u comparing us to the whites who are mostly independent at the age of 18?

I bet most 25yr olds in Nigeria still lives with their parents and still take instructions from them.

All I'm trying to say is that in our country an average 25 year old isn't matured enough(financially or otherwise) for such commitment.

eduson55: what about the whites that do it,or are we different?

I know of a boy of 16 the parents married for because he is an only son. Another resisted his mom's pressure until he married at about 30. I think you are still the one to make the decision. Just make sure you prayerfully choose the woman so that you and ur mom will not know sorrow. Marriage is for life! Shine ur eye!
