She's going to resent you sha. It will get worse over time as she sees her friends do lavish marriages. Just keep your game tight and do not slip, because on that day, you go hear things. Wishing you all the my brother.


I understand.

At least I will give her the privilege to wear wedding gown and me a suit and we snap together. We will have little get together in the house. Just me, my family, her family and just few closed friends.

If she isn't satisfied with that then she should go look for a richer man.

Thanks

In theime in memorial ths black want to be like the white people yeah, in style, way of life, manners, every black want to travel overseas to experience green pastures even when the cost is high..

Blacks want to drive the latest care not caring if is the last naira on their pocket

They just like anything that the white are doing they just want to be like the white, speak like the white... So many things they are willing to forsake their own religion, faith and say of life to be in the atmosphere of the white culture.

I hope we don't forget our heritage and rich culture.

Don't forget bleaching cream and fake accents (from those who have never crossed Murtala Mohammed international airport).

Nigerians still see white people as gods. That's why an average white has more rights in Nigeria than Nigerians.

1- White wedding came with Christianity. As a Christian, one feels fulfilled been joined in the church.

2- Ladies always insist even when men are not interested thereby increasing the wedding budget.
. White wedding came with Christianity? Any biblical proof? The wedding that Jesus Christ attended in Canna, did it took place in church? Marriage is between both parents of couples, church has nothing to do with marriage. Can you tell me where it is written in the Bible where they did wedding in the church? Black man black sense.

Where is the lie?

Last relationship ended because she asked for my ideal wedding and I was like what wedding? Traditional na out of respect for your parents and it's a small closed gathering, after that na registry.

I don go house go sleep. If you wan do reception, odabo oh. Layo laji. She got really offended and cold. Safe to say it took me a few months but I got over it. Still single by the way. Almost all 9ja babes na the same when it comes to wedding.

Eat it all on that day and abandon the man when money no dey after all na man e be.

we know. When market value don drop.



As in ehn...

You dated a child lol.

They just want a lavish wedding to show off to ppl they don't even know and get their wedding featured on bella naija.

Bella naija and Co is their target.

Have you noticed that the ppl that had big lavish weddings end up splitting up in less than 5 years. Because they had their focus on the wedding day instead of the marriage that comes after it.


Black ppl love to show off, they always love to give the impression of something rather than being that actual thing.

The question is why African women wear fake wigs on their head to look like white women?

It's just like a white man wearing false dread locks to look like a black man.

To answer your question... We are conditioned to be inferior people and don't even know where we come from or who we are.

I noticed many people don’t do that nowadays. Probably because of the effect of Buhari regime, not that they don’t want to.

Be like say you be Tinubu supporter, and you're always fond of talking off-point. What kind of drug are you using, separate from others? undecided

Later, you will talk about people not letting social media deceive them, because I can bet my thumbs that the only kind of feminists you've ever met are women online.

Better to keep quiet than using words you don't know their meanings indiscriminately.


So far, my comment has 40something likes. Actually means people reckon to it and see the wisdom in it. As for you who finds relevance on the internet, you are as valueless as an inanimate object.

'Likes' is your comeback? The fact that people agree with you means you made sense? grin

So that means Obi is very sensible too then; look at the number of people supporting him.

Go to YouTube and see atheists making videos cussing God and the number of likes it gets. There are so many pastors preaching nonsense too, and they have supporters.

You didn't say anything groundbreaking, lmao. Stupeed people will always like stupeed things and posts.

Oh wow. What a greatly destabilising clapback. Damn. E touch me. I am as valueless as an inanimate object. That's so crushing I have no choice but to deactivate my account, but I must first say that that is rich coming from someone chasing clout with "feminism."

It is bemoaning, for Nigerian pastors who will tell you that our traditional wedding is not approved by God until you come before them for hand laying.

The person condemning it has a point but put up a picture of Arabs doing white wedding as an example of White wedding.

So is it that she cannot identify a Caucasian and mistook the Arabs for Causasians or she is lumping the Arabs together as an example of Africans

Someone help. lol

Even the white Wedding goes hand in hand with imported religion.
