To be candid, I can marry an uneducated man only on the following conditions.

If he's stinkingly rich.
If I like and love him.
If he's a bornagain.

Any random, average and non-bornagain man with no formal education, is a no no. I mean, wetin I wan take console myself?

All I'm simply saying is having everything balanced out.

I'm out!

Success is not just about the amount of money in your bank account.

[s]Being educated especially tertiary education goes beyond just learning how to read & express yourself. It opens up your mind, makes you exposed and builds your character. That's why University degree certificates say you've been found worthy in "character and learning". No amount of money or maturity gives you these attributes..[/s]

Marriage is a very complex union that the couple must be vibing at very intricate levels, which might be a problem if they're not matched educationally.

It's her choice why argue with her?

Meanwhile I support her because most men in the uneducated category have serious case of insecurity and trust issues when dealing with their educated wives.
That na the only thing you note of the "uneducated/unenlightened" Nigerian mind? undecided

How do I know?Well, I have no degree and trust me,you really won't notice if I don't tell you.
And I mean in all aspects of life,the whole nine yards.
There's no exposure education can give you that you can't give yourself if you add value to yourself and work through the ranks.
I would love to go back to school,not for societal acceptance but for my love for mathematics and maybe participate in more complex solutions/things asides running a trading enterprise.

That "educationally" you talked about does not necessarily translate to holding a degree or classroom curricular activities.
There are some really smart people in this world,degree or no degree.
Money is not a criterion for intelligence as any idiot can make it by chance,true no doubt about that but value and continuity is.
Do you know the kind of strategic thinking,advanced calculations and scheming ,lobbying,interactions it takes to build a succesful enterprise?How many of the so called "literates" can do that?
Have you ever thought to yourself how some supposed "illiterates" run succesful engineering firms and businesses?
Now would you say someone that has built such value chain isn't educated because he has no degree?
Do you know the kind of people he/she mingles with and thr places they've been?
What sort of exposure do you people keep talking about that you can get in school that these people don't have?
The stereotype of seeing the so called "illiterates" as not exposed is really naive if you ask me .

So you do have some formal education. That's different from what I had asked the other guy about. undecided

By the way, it isn't that reasoning of the average Nigerian graduate is much greater than your typical high-school holder - my opinion. undecided

Honestly, it will depend on the connection i have with each of them.

Naturally, i would want to go with the one with education but occasionally, you come accross individuals are exceptional even without a formal education.

I think it will be a case by case basis consideration.
When it comes to man making the choice, Most times you see educated men marrying a good non-educated lady.

But I wouldn't advise a non-educated man to go in with an educated lady...When she is in her female element, one day one day, she will rub it on him...With that statement " I don't blame you, because I agreed to marry you".

Again going tertiary institution comes with certain exposure to navigate life..In this modern times, a lot is needed to swim the waters of life.

Again, lets talk about the social life in school that is extend even after graduation..Imagine the educated lady running into a former coursemate and exchange greetings and hugs, haa!! The non-educated husband will be feeling a bit insecure...

I have experienced this, a lady told me she doesn't Allow men sit in front of car because the husband easily accuse her of having something to do with the man involved... grin smh

When I checked, the guy is a successful guy but no tertiary education, in my mind I said na dem.

Again, there will be limitations to her social functions..We live in Nigeria where anything can be misjudged.

In summary;
Educated Man Vs Educated Lady....Excellent.

Non-educated Man Vs Non-Educated lady...better.

Educated Man Vs Non-Educated lady....Good.


Non-educated Man VS Educated lady....Hmmmmm!!! cheesy Dicy.

I understand your stand point but please let's not make it seem like we're undermining the abilities of non-graduates, that's far from what I have in mind. My take is on a person's reasoning and mentality influenced by years of attaining formal education up to tertiary levels. This has its bearing on decision making in marriages and how couples relate with one another.

Like you said in response to someone you have already acquired tertiary education to an extent thus you don't even come close to these category of persons.

Just last December I know a lady who's husband divorced after years of a toxic marriage that was fuelled by the difference in educational status between her and the husband, the man in question is an Omata (don't know if I got the spelling right) as in Igbo land those guys that left for business training early in life as against going to the University. This is just a marriage of less than 6 years with 3 children.

The level of distrust & insecurities by the ex-husband which ultimately ended the marriage would have been avoided if he was up to par with the lady educationally.

No one is saying it can't. The problem is those without some substantial level of formal education - at least some college education in Nigeria - generally struggle to reason at the same level those who do. undecided

You don't find that many exceptional minds walking the streets of Nigeria like you would say the streets streets Japan, Europe or even the U.S. undecided
