I have this friend of mine who would be 24 this year and wants to get married this year.

He is financially okay. He's got two cars, a 2 bedroom flat and he runs two businesses. He's one of those lucky, young self-made millionaires around. He says he likes to do things in two's and it doesn't make any sense for him to remain single by the end of this year. So he wants to tie the knot with the Angel of his life.

He's God-fearing; and he thinks getting married would make him more focused, more productive and more responsible.

The issue is, we are both sure his parents would not buy the idea. They think he's too small for that. We were together at his family house when his mom was yelling at his uncle(her brother) becos he wanted to marry at a tender age of 30 and to a Warri chic.(They wanted him to marry from another tribe or wait till he's more matured).

He said if they could have issues with a 30 year old man who wanted to get married, how much more a 24 year old man? Presently, we are looking for ways to convince his parents and he hasn't told them yet.

Nairalanders, what thinkest ye? Please do send your candid and positive opinions on the subject matter.

Well me thinks he s gd 2 go
he s got all d potentials na
bt is he matured enuf?

OP.
There is nothing wrong in getting married at age of 24 ,since he's  mature.
You might be a 30 yrs old but still not eligible for marriage cause of your immature ,
If the guy is a mature guy,what's wrong in getting married then?
Well this depends on his parents . . .They ll have to decide for him on this . .If he's really looking their blessing.

24yrs is far too young. He's nt yet matured. Being a husband @ 24 is nt bad bt being a father @25 is somehw, think abt it.

^^Chaii . . , Nawaohh . . .So you expect him to have gotten married at age of 20 yrs.

hmmmmm, marrying at 24? U've said it all that his parent will disagreed out rightly. But my candid advise is that marriage is a thing of the mind if u want it u should be given. As ur friend want it now, he should be given the opportunity to go ahead with it. I got married at the age of 27 here in Nigeria. But with the support of my family. I was given the total support to go ahead.

If ur friend want it he should go ahead.

wish u d best.

Nothing wrong with it. He should tell his parents

Absolutely nothing wrong

LOL the guy sounds alot like myself.
He needs to be careful though. Warri girls get better crase.

marry at de age of 24 is not dat bad people marry at de age of 18 dis days.

i think it depends on how old the girl he wants to marry is

He better not marry a 19 year old girl.

They never get sense yet
