What Are Some Traditions In Nigerian Culture You’d Like To See Gone? by Abiodun0202(m): 3:15pm On Sep 20, 2019
There are still some traditions in Nigeria that would make you suffocate just by hearing it grin grin

Which of these acts would you want out?..

1. Bride Price
2. Inheritance Customs
3. Maltreatment of windows
4. Female Genital Circumcision

So, let's explain a bit....
Bride price: I could rant for hours about this tradition. It’s essentially a transfer of the ownership of a woman, from her father to her husband. Some people believe that the price should be really low, preferably paid in rare denominations. They say this portrays a woman as rare and invaluable. I think bride price in any form (money, livestock, clothing etc) objectifies women, and I’d like to see it gone.

++ Inheritance customs that favour sons: A mother of three girls was still mourning her husband, when news broke that he had fathered a son with some other woman. This widow was expected to relinquish her house, because the custom was that a man’s house belongs to his first son at death. Rubbish! Beyond material things, the custom of treating the first son as the head of the family, sometimes even giving such sons precedence over their mothers. That needs to go too.

++ Maltreatment of widows: ...

you know what, get more of it here...

Please Mr Op

There is nothing like Nigerian culture. The country Nigeria doesn't have any culture.

This is just a British creation or experiment where many people are currently trapped and want out..

If you want to talk select your ethnic group and talk about the bad culture been practiced.

What is Nigerian culture. Such sentence doesn't exist pls.


Nothing like that.


Nigeria been created has no culture.
