Bitter truth, especially the igbo and Akwa ibom women

Marriages in igbo land aren't expensive.

U speak outta gross ignorance.

That explains why I have never heard of him. He must really suck at his job.
failure.

Lavoca:
This one is a misogynist

Misogynist ke?

How?

Because he said bride price is akin to buying a wife?

He doesn't support abuse he proffered a solution he thinks would work: No to bride price/ excessive ones.

Foodforthought:

Husbands refund the dowry as soon as the marriage rites are completed... they even add to it. Allowing the woman to pay the dowry first is part of the marriage rites.

Just hearing this.

Ozkar:
really? You can't buy a human being? You mean the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade never happened?

Your mind is really a multiverse.

Bride price....

ZombieTAMER:
Feminists right now

Lol. Imagine "men that bought them"

Tor, the problem with these type of men is that when God blesses them with a submissive wife they would start complaining that the responsibility is too much.

eyeview:
The truth is this: any girl not ready to be submissive to her husband should stay in her father's house

Agree or not, he's right. It's called "bride price" for a reason.

Ignorance? Or you're the one deceiving yourself.

Is it what we all know or is there something else? Haven't you seen the list of igbo or Akwa ibom bride price on Nairaland front page several times and how expensive they are?

You're the ignorant person here Oga.

Banter1:
How? lol

It's like they paused the match due to some interruption and then your bookie(thE betting site you used) then took Advantage of the situation quickly and remove the match for you,they did it wittyly to reduce your winnings

>Bride price isn't the major factor that pushes men to raise their hands on their wives.

>No man will ever raise his hand on his respectful and loyal wife. It is IMPOSSIBLE.

NAGGING is the major thing that engineers domestic violence. Nothing else. I mean, nothing else.

Because, RESPECT and LOYALTY are the major things a husband wants from his wife, while respect is the last thing a NAGGING wife will want to give to her husband without attaching annoying attitudes.

may God richly bless you for writing the simple truth

when you try so hard to sound intellectual but end up fooling urself.

first of all why did he allude to a lady been free to MISBEHAVE only when cohabiting? why did u chose misbehave?

second, except u just landed from the moon, there is no culture in nigeria where a father has the sole decision when it comes to giving out his daughter out in marriage. in fact the LIST is not even prepared by the father of the bride, he has little or no say in what is on the list. all he can do is to negotiate with his kinsmen on how to curtail the items on the list.

foolish ugly comedian.

You must be one of those lazy jobless village drunkards who wait for young girls to get married so they can milk their suitors dry. It's not as if you contributed anything into the development of the lady while growing up, now that she's all grown up, you want to exchange her for yams, drinks and money.

Better go and get something doing and stop selling the female children of your relatives.

lol...who says no man will raise his hands on a respectful wife? Even some evil men will raise their hands on a respectful, quiet, meek woman that doesn't talk much and still foot the bill....there is no excuse for domestic violence, whether it comes from the woman or man so we should try to stop giving excuses for it

2. Men are prideful...and many of them hate correction and tend to see it as insubordination. The day men begin to respect their wives and their opinions, communicate better with them is the day nagging will be reduced. When the man was growing up and his mom kept using koboko to scold him, did he beat her?
The day couples understand that as soon as they take their vows they have become 1, anything that affects one affects the other, that is the day genuine happiness in marriage will begin

I think he is confused or just did this for attention. All what he said is just bull crap...he is a comedian after all, we shouldn't take him seriousness

Why should I believe useless lists uploaded here on nairaland by idiots n silly bloggers who know nothing about my marriage traditional rights. U can't be Afonja n tell me how I married out my 2 junior sisters, isn't it odd that ur trying to do so?


In igbo land we have Welders, Bus conductors, bricklayers, daily pay labourers, shoemakers, etc and they all get married. Ask ur self, If those lists n the stories surrounding it are true, Then how do these poor people get married here?

Oloriburuku! ole! Thief! Barawo!

You are just a worthless, lazy, village drunkard. With no iota of shame. You and your evil kinds want to be selling your relations daughters that you didn't spend money bringing up.

Where were you when the father was training up his child, If the father had been a lazy drunkard like you, would he have bought his daughter up to become a responsible lady like that?

A useless pig like you with the brain of mustard seed can never comprehend that the value of a lady is not measured in yams and drinks.

I live and work in Abuja and have seen a senator give out his daughter's hand in marraige. The senator didn't allow any useless, lazy village drunkard like your stoopeed self to come and sell his precious daughter.

Go and get a job and stop looking for who you will sell to make money for your drunken habit.

Nagging is also domestic violence.
