Of course grin

Woooh woooh

Let's start killing twins again grin

We have to keep out tradition alive

Do try to be reasonable dear,killing of twins was stopped because it's barbaric,why didn't the white people try to stop bride price when they came, or were people not getting married then?

don't let go of your heritage because you want to be like the foreigners,you'd only be colonizing yourself.
If you really want to let go of everything your ancestors did.....start with the food,songs,dances etc,then we know you are pure oyibo.

Bride price is not a problem,without it,you are only cohabiting.

Darling, there's sth. like culture change. There are stuffs that our fore fathers did, that you won't want to do. This is a part of life and it's called evolving. It's not up to YOU to decide which part of my culture I'd rather not be a part in.

Do not talk to me about acting like an oyibo, if you'd rather wear a suit instead of an ankara to an interview, wear a wig instead of your afro, speak English instead of your mother tongue, worship a foreign religion instead of the gods your fore fathers did etc.

Just like YOU chose which tradition you want to continue, I've chosen mine and that should be none of your business

It's an Africa thing.

Only Nigeria... and to some extent Ghana (only because of Sakawa)
9ja is the only country that has a scam named after her.
Everybody knows what "Nigerian scam" is.
