The first thing my mum told me ever about relationship was that dont bring any OGUN STATE lady especially from IJEBU & ABEOKUTA to our house. She told me they do control there husbands n make sure d man forget to take care of his family.

Some of my friends also attest to d fact their parent told dem not marry any gal from ogun state especially Abeoukuta.

Just want u nairalanders to share ur experience with ogun state ladies, cuz d few ones I have encountered proves all d stories I hav been hearing right

booked

Alikaxon: booked

do something about the topic or f*ck off.

possibilita: do something about the topic or f*ck off.

Lol! NO mind d guy

But lets be serious guys

Your myth and our cultural bias is what is making Nigeria a one divided nation. You might be right but I have an uncle who get married to an Ibadan lady over 50 yrs ago, he has no trace to his family again which is from Ogun state, Ijebu to be precise. then who is dominating who. Aya rere se fee, Ana buruku ni ko daa.

the lady might be good but d family might be otherwise. To me,a happy marriage is as a result of the unison between not only d couple but their families.

@Op,if Funkybaby catch u eehn...u won't like urself ooo

I've heard this too from many people• And they can't all be lying

Am not cultural bias, sorry if u frm ogun state, but I dnt tink almost every can be lying. ]

i heard the same shiit from a neighbor of mine about ijebu girls

SAme shit people keep saying about ijebu gurls.no tribe in this nigeria that their girls didnt have any negative thingy.is it osun,ibadan or ondo gurls that didnt have problem?
The mistake we guys make whenever we are in relationship is that we failed to know the family of the girl in the aspect of their believe,relationship with their married daughter.if any and their background.to some family it is a normal routine for divorce and other stuff.

i have heard this from married igbo men that had them as girlfriends and even from abeokuta elders. but one thing i have seen is they tend to leave the marriage when things aint rossy anymore. re-marrying is one common thing about abeokuta women.

It's not by state or tribe, marry someone who will give u happiness, else, u are finished completely!

You lot and your silly labels, Stereotype, ethnic profiling, go get a life!

Stuffs like this has no place in the 21st century.

Yesss.......Yesssss.......Yesssss.....The problem with the abeokuta own is that the brides family intrudes into the matrimonial home. The mother in laws will find a means of staying with the daughter ni. I gat 1001 evidences. As for the ijebus na party and awo ebi be dem own wahala.

I don't know about Ijebu but Abeokuta ladies/women aren't bad at all.Abeokuta ladies/women are very hard working,not the type you can easily relegate to the kitchen.The control thingy starts when she's taking 60% responsibilities in the house or in the relationship,which is applicable to any other lady/woman from another part.

Yea I think its more of the family than the actual lady]

it happened to my uncle,he travelled to ijebu to look for greener pasture but got married to a local and never did visit home for about 6yrs until someone told my granny about it so my granny summon him home but he brought the girl with him,this girl started to behave like someone who has never touch dirt in my village and my uncle was forced to send her away and divorce her

You can marry from ABEOKUTA or IJEBU, its your choice. We have some good wives and family there, don't judge with your friends or brothers experience.

These are those stereotypes usually associated with some groups. Every group is stereotyped one way or the other and you shouldn't base your thoughts on stereotypes. Just get to know the person you're getting married to. You're marrying an individual and not a community.
