Lols supreme court is just wasting its time because no Igbo man will regard this. A female child will only inherit her father's estate if she happens to be the only child of the man and also, if the father when alive willed some part or any of his properties to her. In a similar situation, the brothers may still decide to include or assign some part of any of the properties to their sisters.

MrColdsweat:


You don't know your culture.

Yorubas bury their obas with 7 heads.

Provide me with evidence biko or do you expect readers to just swallow your gibberish?

Pheww, some ppl sef!

PrudencyFeats:


We talk so much about southern Nigeria customs not to supersed Nigerian constitution.

In the north, sharia laws supercedes the Nigerian construction, why

Where? I biliv you knw that if you leave in the north, no one can charge u to sharia court.


Meanwhile, its for your own good if you start admitting your wrongdoings and take responsibilities for your inadequacies. Rather than blaming others for ur mistakes.

This thread is an access to insult igbo people but guess what, we don't care what you people think. Customs and traditions reign supreme.

Custom.and tradition can never supercede the law

AmazonTopaz:


Lol.Thanks for the advice.I prefer the igbo women yoruba men combination.

No one cares! If you like marry a hobbit. No igbo man will lose sleep over your choice.

BabaRamota1980:


We do not practice discrimination in my tribe.

So which tribe is that uncle?

This judgement will definitely give room to more divorce cases since the lady knows that she still has an inheritance in her father's house so she can leave her matrimonial home anytime she wants just like people around the Southwest does

BabaRamota1980:
They want to rule Nigeria but in 2020 still treating women as second class citizens, denying women from inheritance. Very backward people. No Ibo will rule this country in 2023.

Idiotttttttt LIKE YOU. EZI BIDA

weman oya e don happen water don pass gari

I will finish reading this article is by weekend and comment by September.

Oga speak for yourself abeg.
There is no need for regard the man just has to follow the law and include his daughters to avoid wahala if it is challenged in court.
So all these your excuses changes nothing women have a right to inheritance and cannot be denied them on basis of gender.
It has started happening in the igbo land you claim you know

They treat their women like owned properties but they will only see faults in other tribes while heir own house is on fire.
They have no respect for women. I once worked with an Igbo guy in the US and he hates taking orders from our boss who happened to be a woman.
Any idiot can give him orders as long as it's not coming from a woman. Can you imagine that.
Bunch of tribal and religious hypocrites,

Custom.and tradition can never supercede the law

I don't know where you come from and I don't care but in my community, customs and traditions reign supreme.

All those against the judgement should get ready for jail

If every community's traditions and cultures are to pass through the eyes of the law and constitution, almost every tradition/customs will be abolished.

It will be wickedness for Kingship to be inherited
It will be so bad ban women in participating in some certain culture as they have the right to join whatever they want
It will be bad to tell a woman to to see some certain masquerade or not to wear the masquerade regalia.
It will be wrong to tell people not to eat new yam until the elders perform the rituals associated to it.

So many things will be wrong in the eyes of the law.

It is those prohibitions that make culture and traditions what they are.

Involve the law and the law will reign supreme nothing can ever change that.
The law remains supreme don't justify backwardness and tell us your tradition made it so.
It holds no water your community belongs to the government

What took them so long?

A law that Moses voided in the wilderness.

Nigerian courts always known for being sluggish

ZZ22:
I won't be surprised if you have not step a foot in Igbo land but vomiting all these trash. You might even be talking from what you have watched in the movies and taking it for reality.
How do you chase someone away from the properties she has its papers intact or are you trying to tell me Igbos will their properties to their brothers instead of their wives.

The Fulani supreme court can't decide the way we will our properties here in the east.

The igbo men will keep getting rejected for their backwardness.
Keep crying

Its high time we do away with some cultures and traditions. we are lagging behind

Are you Igbo?

Shiloh awaits you

Liposure:
does the law supersede traditional wedding

That one is customary and the people have chosen to see it as good.
But then in Nigeria when you marry under the law(registry)it is legal and that is the marriage recognised by the state.
They are the ones giving certificates traditional weddings don't give certificates and it is not recognised outside the immediate family.
To show you are truly married maybe when going abroad as a couple you show your certificate which the law gives

csamii:

Very much igbo.

That shiloh talk is CRAP and does not affect or concern me go and feed that rubbish talk to someone else interested in hearing it

BabaRamota1980:

And they practice discrimination,
Is that why you're feeling so pained?

Yeye tribe. They're always quick to insult the Hausas and Islam, yet these people are way better than them. Backward YEast.

In my community, we are just and learned. I don't know the cave you come from but don't equate the backwardness of your people to others.

Bunch of tribal and religious hypocrites,

They dont value their girls at all, but like you said they will jump on Hausa case and demonize them on girl child abuse.

AmazonTopaz:

@bold,I am igbo and you are so right I cannot marry an Igbo man.I agree with all you have said.

Wow.

It is forbidden in the Nigerian constitution not to take alcoholic beverages at some locations?

Mind you, I never mentioned anything wrong with the judgement. Just the I want you to clarify why down in the south, our customs as being threatened as against sharia
