No. 8 sums up everything. Which is? These guidelines were created by men to have unlimited access over women i.e their wives are just like zombie or doormat to 'em. Full control kawai kaman TV da remote control!

all these rubbish above is just what it is.
do you even know the way the organiza their family units?
let me tell you.
they are mostly polygamous, each wife has her room where she raises her children. (mind you, just one room)
the man has his own room, which also doubles as his sitting room, with bed, chair and tv all in the same space.
if the chair is not enough, others sit on the bed, i had done that times without number while there.
so, which of the beds is considered the matrimonal bed?
and kpekus dey flow morning, afternoon, night.

Indirect sharia!

All what they do is prevent adultery/fornication.

Maintain pedigree/integrity/respect.



How are these different from sharia?

If you feel not absolutely ready to be faithful and submissive to a man, don't marry. Better yet, don't marry an edo man. However, you don't know what love is until you've been loved by an edo man. proudly Esan!

Looking at the laws, you would think it's only women who exist in the world.A lot of oppression and hatred towards women.

Thank God for feminism and education that has been teaching women that this treatment is wrong and should not be tolerated.

Everyone should be held to the same standards and should be treated equally regardless of their genders!
my dear if you want to know if all this rule are real or not please come and marry real esan man, you are talking of gender equality, those that make you to comment adultry bcuz u wnt equal rite wit ur husband, all this still happened in were I came frm in Edo state the rule this pason laid or gave out hia is just the tip of the iceberg.

Bro it's not superstition oh. It's very true. That's why you hardly see an a woman married to an Ishan man or an ishan woman cheat.

Gender equality means that both adult men and women are treated equally regardless of gender.

I have no problem if these rules apply to both MEN and WOMEN.

My dear, wish you can tell same to the men... why are all the rules about women? They're just giving liberty to the men to cheat while having a lot of evil lined up for woman who a man touches as small as her wrapper. ..

A woman can't spit on her husband but her husband can bath her with spit...wetin person no go hear grin grin

You educated Esan women should stand up against those barbaric cultures. You ain't anybody's doormat. ..

If they can't get rid of the rules, then it should be adjusted to suit both men and women. . Faithfulness in marriage is for both genders!

3 and 4 Is very Similar to The Anioma People Tradition in Delta State.

But that 4 Bloody....What if the Woman get bad mind and Refuses to Say? Na So Husband and Pikin Go waste like that
cry

Almost all of them are similar to a lot of traditions of Anioma tribes in Delta state.

Hilarious story: no. 9 was used by a friend to be mischievous to his wife. He solemnly bought a bucket home one day and placed it in reverent care in their bathroom... where they have a posh bathtub. He refused to answer and waited till weekend when he saw her soaking some clothes in the bucket (she did it deliberately). He then started "raking" and vexing and saying the gods must be appeased by her letting him control the remote control all weekend grin the tout had lost a bet earlier before and she was going to make him miss all EPL matches as punishment. So he used this to get back at her. Those 2 are agbayas eh....

"Though your sins are like scarlet, I will make them as white as snow...," says the Lord.(Isaiah 1:18)
If God can forgive murder cases, the tradition of innocent children dying by adultery committed by their
mother must be looked into and reversed by this generation. I am convinced it is the witches and wizards
in Ishan land in the old days that must have come into that abominable covenant so that they can give
dog a bad name in order to hang it.
Re: 9 Marriage Taboo Ishan People Have That Will Amaze You by Nobody: 3:00pm On Feb 24, 2016
No her marriage is not stable because she snatched him

Well I am Esan and I have never heard of this superstition called taboo, all thanks to Christianity

You people that are so particular about the men ,let me simply it affect the men the eyes that sees and refuses to talk goes down as well. You see a married woman with another man in a compromising way and you refuse to talk when you had the chance you will die within seven days without being able to say a word.
