My girlfriend (Her Dad - Igala, Her Mum - Igbo) and I have been dating for 3 years and when she informed her family of our plans to get married, they strongly opposed her. They only gave one reason - He is from Edo state. She seems to be succumbing to her family pressure and I need to do something fast before I lose her. I've met and pleaded with her mum but she remains adamant (Her Dad is late). I need some valuable advice urgently. Pls assist. |

What part of Edo state are you from? You know edo men have a certain reputation in Nigeria when it comes to how they treat their wives. |

Igarra. I guess you have to show her that you are different and that an igbo man will not guarantee that her daughter will have a happy marriage. |

Tribal problems will never end in Nigeria, cos even our generation seems to be fueling it with actions and deeds |

What part od Akoko Edo are you from? I'm Akoko Edo too and they are people friendly so i advise that you try and sit your proposed mother inlaw down and explain to her that we are not what she thinks, |

Its a very confusing situation. I've done that but she wouldnt listen. She says all Edos are the same and she doesnt like their culture. I feel so terrible |
