In a vast majority of the cases the men are spilling money on old expired oloshos who are actually used up old hags.... what they are celebrating, I do not know!

I just don't want to shake tables in this aspect.

I have a thread in my head about this but I won't create it cos it will break the Internet.

Lol @ break the Internet.

I gave up on that shit called white wedding the day my boss, with no car and living in room & parlor self con, calculated more than #2m as money being spent for his wedding. That couple still lives in a rented apartment and has no car till now, imagine what #2m can do for a family.

You can have it. It's simple mindset

TheOldGods:


just like your moniker say is you're a big jack ass. You mother is also beneath me. So as you. I done have your time. I only talk with men not girls in form of men

you will be taken seriously when you do stop quoting females and replying. For now you are just groaning and spitting all over the place

Bobmarie:
Over it

You can tell your mom and sister to help you understand what logical reasoning is. You’ll get over it.

Some blind Native African's will still fight headon to thing the white ceremonial dress is suitable for him than her own beautiful traditional attire...

Kissmyassbiach:


The people who made the religion are the same people who made the rule. It’s now you want to do, “let’s not follow the white man”.

It’s not everything in the “scripture” that’s practiced, the same way it’s not every y’all practice today that’s in the scripture. It’s still a part of the religion regardless.

Problem for religious people. Thank God for the Holy spirit. Let no man put you on pressure or make you do what they think it's right but not consistent with the scripture

There is nothing like white wedding, and it's not in the Bible all that is required is blessings from both parent which is tradition. Most people don't know the meaning of tradition biko consult you dictionary for more advice.
You here tradition and you head tell you it's festish. Rubbish

I am a Jehovah's Witness and we are admonished to have only one: either the traditional or the white wedding. We are not to do both as it's a waste of money.

What most important is that the marriage is registered. So, even a low key registry wedding is okay. The reason why court is important is that we have to abide by Caesers laws (Read Roman's 13:1-7, Titus 3:1). Once you've done the court wedding you're considered married even if you decide not to do a traditional or white wedding.

Guy if you no get money hid your face and allow those who want to celebrate church wedding do so. Couples can actually go for blessings in the white gown and suit without the elaborate receiption ceremony.
If you have the money to do white wedding based on your faith, it's not a waste of money and time.
@Op if you have attended a white wedding and ate their "rice" then I do not know if to say...na amadioha go judge your matter.

Nice one

Divoc19:
Waste of time in deed.
I didn't do any of both self because I don't like the crowd for marriage thing.
What a lucky guy he is

Or you marry SAPA man hahaha

chaseblack:
White wedding isn't the problem ,Nigerians oversabi is the problem.
Study how an average white man performs his white wedding and compare it with what Nigerians desire and you'll notice where the fault is.
Copy copy sprinkled with a touch of oversabi

You are absolutely correct. God bless you.

More devil's advocacy and the need to try so hard to be different.

If there were money available, half the people against it would be for it.

Plus, all this is just a desperate bid to give support to polygamy, cheating, and refusal to pay alimony by claiming African traditions. That's why local Nigerian men hate court unions and what they call white weddings. It's nothing about traditions. Just trying to escape responsibility by bringing out the savagery of "I did a traditional wedding so I can..."

You'll wonder if they hate modern education, church, phones, clothes and other things they've copied from white people. Because they're also a waste of time and money.

WisdomHunter:
I have said this many years ago

White wedding is an European culture, their tradition wedding

But because they brought this Christianity that we carry for head that is putting many confusion in our society and attached their tradition marriage to it, it automatically becomes our a must do.

How is it their tradition? Is Europe one culture/tradition?Or you think each European country doesn't have its own traditional wedding rites? You people just like spreading falsehoods because the idea of a wedding where men have all the rights is appealing to you via the so called traditional wedding. You can do your traditional wedding without trying to discredit what you call the white wedding every single time.

The "white" wedding is simply a unification of several cultures under one banner.

The topic is an overflogged pointless one.

Na poverty the course all this thing oo
Something wey we the do for a long time now


Poverty don make us condemn am

Toks2008:
To think that some Pastors preach that until you do a white wedding also known as "Church wedding".. You are not considered married...

I call this foolishness that has no basis in our tradition as Africans or even in the Scriptures.

I will advise any man to focus on the traditional wedding and go ahead to register the wedding if they want but if the lady insists on having a white wedding, let her take care of the entire financial demands except you have enough money to throw away.

May we be emancipated from mental slavery

We ALL waste money, don't teach others how to waste money cos they didn't choose your ways of wasting money. We ALL waste money on things like:

1. Data

2. Alcohol

3. DStv subscription

4. Parties

5. Food

6. Clothes/Shoes/Wristwatches/Perfume

7. Gadgets etc

A senseless being thinking she's sensible.

God bless you sir.

so in her soakaway mind, the Master turnd water into wine in a white wedding?

Kissmyassbiach:


You claim it’s because white weddings are not a part of the religion when really you’re just broke, and I’m the one to be mute? Don’t start arguments you cannot defend. Have a wonderful day.

Shut up your dirty mouth...
This is probably a jobless unmarried thing. Na dem dey first call person broke...

Stankovic22:


You are just a religion follower and not a Christian.

If at all you are a Christian you would have studied the wedding of Isaac to Rebecca and how Abraham your Christian father paid dowry and and Isaac went with his wife.

Scriptures made it clear countless times of the need for dowry to be paid. Don't confuse wedding with marriage

Was Abraham a Christian...?

And was it written in the Bible where white wedding is compulsory... Did Abraham wedded his wife Sarah in the church if yes give me verses to read

Nigerian men are daft !..the stupidity running through your ram brain is second to none - all of you

most Nigerian girl don’t even know what it means to love. You are blind by love for his money. A man buys expensive things for a girl and gives her money because he loves her but what do we get from Nigerian girls love for his money and not the man. I do advise my friends to go to neighboring countries if they cannot afford to go far and they will get better women in Cameroon, Benin, Niger, Togo, Ivory Coast . Like I got mine from Guinea Conakry with a different mentality

Yeah u maybe right but everyone with is own choice of the ladie

junique629:
She bends down to pee makes you better or smarter, people like you simply irritate me. If you learnt your history well, you would know Nigeria was colonized by the British and as such it is only natural that a few of their customs rubbed off on us. Only a poverty stricken individual such as yourself wouldn't admit how beautiful the white wedding event is and the fact that it is worth adopting. Shove that up you ass, you chauvinistic psychopath

You haven't understood these type of guys/men, they can't do without woman for second, and many of them are in hopeless situation, often, they comment on female comment to get her attention and they do that by posting negative comment.

If it's possible all females leave nairaland, they too will disappear from the forum.

Next time don't chuck your dirty mouth in something you have zero knowledge about..it won't help your future.. better listen and learn

PlayMaker14:
Just small argument and you are throwing insults.... So much for Christianity.



This only shows that you're a daft unintelligent fellow and I bid you goodnight.
