Congrats! But multiple accounts mean it's probably around 700,000.

Those people who brag about how they have the best and most loving hubby in the world, forming happily and successfully married woman, when they find out he has another fully-fledged family outside, they open a second or even a third account to seek advice from Nairalanders.

Those guys who claim they never use money to attract girls, when their girl suddenly announces engagement to another guy, they open another account to lament how they paid the girl's fees throughout her university studies & paid her rent.

As long as humans like to "form", hyping themselves online anyhow, multiple accounts will be the norm. cheesy grin

many men are dying early daily because of this so called love love issue and that i cant leave my woman . there are many things young ladies of today need to learn from our mothers and they will teach them how they were able to stay in their husband house for 30-40 years . nowadays i know many women between the ages of 40-55, when their husbands are traveling , they will put condoms in their husband bags , they know what men are capable of doing . but ignoring it or trying to behave as if it is abnormal is the greatest deception a woman can do to herself
Let them be deceiving themselves there. I frown on promiscuity but women need to face reality.

I dont get, so cos she is from a polygamous home, she should tolerate a cheating husband? both genders i know from such homes, guide their path against it cos of bad experience, so mr. i dont understand your point.
My point is simple. People should not expect what their own homes could never offer. Or judge others more harshly than they judge their own dad. If your dad was still a great dad and hubby, despite polygamy, another man out there can be too.

If they had such really horrible experience, did they ever rebuke their dad for it?

To make things even easier, if my woman cheats I will kick her out because it is not allowed in my culture. She can seek a man from a culture where such is allowed.

I am not oyinbo. Black women trying to impose oyinbo lifestyle on black hubbies have missed their way. They should look for oyinbo to marry. Problem solved.

I have no plans for polygamy or having girls up and down. Because I have no family culture of it and it is also my personal lifestyle BUT I will not sanctimoniously impose it on others.

I am not here to pander to anyone or become popular with the ladies by telling them what they want to hear.

Yes, those men were sexually active outside their marriage. The question is what was their society's perception of their acts when it came to fore? Let me cite an example, there is a community I have worked in where sexually assault on a minor is not a big issue. It is only when the perpetrator is caught red-handed that the elders of the clan make him bring some livestock for cleansing and all is forgotten and this approach will certainly not be acceptable in some other places.

The hypocrisy here is many live in denial that women can never be of the same psyche with that of our great-grand mothers as they are being exposed to a different socialization.

Pregnant unwed women proudly show off their baby bumps on social media as against the shaming that was hitherto attached to such. What is responsible for this?
The only thing that exists is hypocrisy of society. Because a large number them are at it. Including Donald Trump, Leader of the West as a whole. His bragging of grabbing both married and single women by the pussy didn't stop Americans voting for him. Public perception seems selective or doesn't count for much then. Maybe a tacit admission of their hypocrisy. shocked shocked

Do not get me wrong. Polygamy is not my thing. Even my granddad wasn't. But I do not subscribe to sanctimony just because I do not do what others too. People live their lives as they wish. They don't give a rat's bum about my or your opinion. grin cheesy

Culture is dynamic and evolving, I laugh at those who hook their reasoning on "our fore-fathers did this, we are Africans, we are polygamous in nature etc" ignoring the historical facts the West was once in our level of perception of what is socially acceptable or not. In the next fifty years, what we presently term as "values" will be questioned and ignored. If some men today in Nigeria can boldly say they would prefer to have a baby mama to having a wife or Nigerian lady would prefer going for artificial insemination to eliminate a man being in the picture, then you know many are still living in denial.

Promiscuity has become a two-way street.
Well, Bill Clinton, John Major, Jesse Jackson, Arnold Schwarzenegger and many famous and ordinary people still play/played away or even have kids with other women outside. grin cheesy

So it is not dead in the West at all. Civil society in West adopted Christian marriage doctrine in the West but the hypocrisy of it is laid bare daily.

My grand dad & dad didn't do polygamy out of choice. Even when it was rampant. Evolution or no evolution in 100 years there will be both open & coded polygamy. In fact baby mamas will become much more acceptable as in the West now. It is marriage that will decline.

If anything polygamy actually protects women compared to baby mama-hood. It allows both co-wife & kids to be co-recognised by hubby's family.

The true evolution lies in most younger people recognising the need to provide better life for their kids. Leading to having fewer kids, typically 2 to 4 nowadays, which one woman easily produces. Not that we're better disciplined, more civilised or have less instinctive biological urges to have many women than people of 50 or 100 years ago.

Promiscuity has always been a two-way thing. Granted that women had less avenues to cheat previously. Because most women had less opportunity to mix with unrelated males unsupervised. Now they mix freely in the workplace, social media, etc.

Good thing today is we now have DNA tests to at least know if your kids are actually yours. A late relative of mine found out that "his" three kids were not his. That could not have been known 100 years ago when such tests did not exist. But it doesn't mean women were not promiscuous back then.

Any woman who does that if I find out at 2 am in the morning, she leaves my house that very second. She can call her lover, family or friends to pick her from the streets. In only her night gown!

Mr Gérard oyinbo Christian belief didn't stop Ottoman Turkish Muslims takings swathes of Christian Europe and controlling it for about 5 centuries. Even longer than colonialism. Or the Moors taking Iberian Peninsula and up to half of France. Pagan Romans took Judea. The home of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David, Solomon and Jesus. That has nothing to do with it.

Despite the epistle you just typed, you’re still an illiterate. Proud example of the Nigerian problem.

You should be ashamed of yourself for the thesis you wrote on how cheating wives are causing their husbands death.

The money spent on your education was wasted. Smh for you.
All I see is one brainwashed by mock-Western education.

A 15 years old girl in Palistine gets pregnant without sex. Births a son of God. All that is fine so long it did not happen in Africa.

An illiterate man suddenly writes a religious book in Arabia creating a new religion.

These unscientific things are correct because the stories did not originate in Africa.

A holy man uses a couple of bread and fish to feed thousands. And it all sound perfectly alright to you that consider yourself to be educated. But such miracles cannot originate in Africa. Because Africans have no souls and are just basically animals as your lovely European church declared to approve transatlantic slave trade.

Even though Westerners now even believe mankind originated in Africa.
Once you have purged yourself of inferiority, brainwash and mental slavery, you might see beyond your nose some day.

@bolded

Does it mean it is better to not let the husband/wife know if the partner is cheating? From what you wrote here it is the awareness that will kill.

Is the tradition not also saying "Go ahead and cheat but don't let your partner know unless he/she will die?"
It is not so clear-cut. I listed a number of things of which if all or most coincide, the likelihood of harm is more. Reason why the man's knowledge is critical is that it makes him complicit in it. Thereby encouraging the tradition (that he should ensure is upheld) to be blatantly rubbished. But either way if she cheats continuously, whether the man knows or not, harm will ultimately come.

As a kid going to the village during holidays from school, I witnessed the masquerade deity pointing out people who committed abomination secretly. Both men and women. A cheating woman is told through an elderly woman. Not to embarrass her /family her publicly. Then asked to go do the needed rituals in her hubby's family. When she denies that she did not commit any abomination, then it becomes like challenging the deity. Some stubborn women have sworn the deity instead of admitting it in the past. Such women usually admit that the deity was right at the point of death. Too late. This is the scenario where the woman may suffer harm. A cheating woman can also suffer harm during childbirth. In the past some women lost already born kids via cheating.

Remember too that there are people with metaphysical powers in the traditional society. This does not necessarily equate to witchcraft. Just like diviners & clairvoyants, they can see beyond what you and me can see. They are another part of the mystical/ancestral powers equation.

In the past when all deities in a village were worshiped in festivals yearly, every three years, every 7 years or so, those powers were re-enforced each time. Even the songs and dances were steeped in ancient mystic. Most people would not even understand the meaning of the archaic language of the songs. They are in fact a mystical tongue laced with potent incantations.

I have spent around 70% of my life living outside 9ja. I only began researching this phenomenon on returning visit 9ja. I noticed how these things are dying out and began to ask questions.

Women who rely on opening legs only should expect to become redundant once hubby/bf gets a fresher pussy outside. Since aside her pussy she has no added value.

Katier00:
I don't believe that was what killed the man. With the high rate of infidelity in our society, 70% of our men for don die. Anyway Rip
My dear people choose to disbelieve what they have never witnessed. I used to be sceptical too. But in Edoid people (Benin, Esan, Urhobo, Isoko, Afemai, etc), it is very serious matter. Not every tribe or clan has it.

Then the immediate question people ask is : What of those husbands in Edo who even send their wives to Italy?

Now remember that traditional taboos come with conditions: The woman must be married TRADITIONALLY with bride price paid, grooms family present to accept the bride and the woman has all the taboos explained to her to which she concurs. Now a large number of those sending "wives" or allowing them go abroad did not even properly marry the wife. Getting together and having kids is not equal to marriage. The man would not even be considered an inlaw if the lady's parent dies. Unless they do traditional marriage before the funeral rites.

The other aspect is awareness of the hubby of the wife's infidelity. If unaware he might just escape it. If aware he must not eat her food, must not sleep with her and must not conceal the infidelity from his family. Going to secretly appease the ancestors is deadly. I wrote about this over a year ago on another thread. This happened to someone fairly close. The wife he left in 9ja was shamelessly sleeping around. Friends warned her but she said as a Christian tradition does not count to her. And she visits him abroad a couple of times a year. He comes home too regularly.

Somehow the hubby heard and returned to 9ja to find out. She admitted but they gathered very few family members to do the rituals. He returned abroad but she continued her rubbish. More secretly this time. The hubby came back to vist, ate her food, slept with her, etc.

This guy returned abroad and a few months later, he took ill. In a city with some of the best equipped hospitals in Europe, they found no cause. MRI, CT scan, blood tests, X-ray, all ogbonge tests, nothing. No stroke, no heart attack, no disease, nothing. He slipped into coma. Months passed. Family back home in 9ja were alerted to prepare for his demise. They said they could not keep him alive for too long.

Only the news of his imminent death jolted all the people who knew to start speaking up. It was a shock how many people knew. She was known to sleep with many business partners. All those randy rich men. You know when people have money, they get away with many things. She has money.

The family then summoned her after the rumours became to loud. Some members of their family now confessed that her hubby wanted to avoid embarrassment and they were induced with money to do the rituals of atonement secretly. You know corruption is everywhere including within families. A taboo in itself.

The full ritual atonement including public rebuke, symbolic cane strokes and many more were done. Her hubby recovered like magic. Just like European doctors had no idea why he was ill, they had no idea how he recovered.

Another aspect is if the hubby has turned his back on tradition, or his father already did, has no idea where his village is, doesn't touch base, does not attend extended family funeral, his wife is not known to his family, then the tradition might turn its back too. For all intents and purposes, he's unknown to his clan. Such a taboo might not apply.

Please do not marry an Edoid person that has tradition if you do not want to adhere to such strict fidelity rule.

I know several other cases. Lots of men just die without anyone ever knowing the wife's infidelity caused it. Especially those couples who suddenly say they are now Christians and begin doing anyhow. Without first freeing themselves from the tradition they followed for first 20 or 30 years of marriage.

Note that polygamy is allowed in the tradition if the man wishes, but not polyandry.

FamilyRe: "Suitors Now Prefer Our Maids To Our Daughters For Marriage" - Nigerian Parents by AreaFada2: 10:45am On May 06, 2018
This happened in a different way long ago already. Children of servants were sent to school to "chop cane" from teachers. Kids of local elites & chiefs were pampered at home.

Before we knew it, the educated kids of servants became assistants to colonial officials. So arose some bureaucratic & political elites from the poorest backgrounds.

Very soon hubbies will be openly driving away the daughters of big men they married, and marry their house girl instead.

We're living in a changing and uncertain world. Nothing will remain the same. grin cheesy

To be a lazy, uncouth, foul-mouthed, disrespectful daughter from a rich home will amount to living a single life.
EducationRe: What Is The Different Between Pidgin And Broken English? by AreaFada2: 10:36am On May 06, 2018
Lilisticlili:
They are both not standard english but almost a lingua franca or Nigerian second langauge.

But they still poses similiarities......

Finestboi
Broken English is more correctly the English spoken by someone who speaks little English. Like a Peruvian or Venezuelan who just speaks little English in addition to his native Spanish. He will not be able to make good sentences or string the correct words together properly.

Whereas Pidgin is actually lingua franca in many countries. Popularly called creole in the Caribbean including Patois in Jamaica.

In Nigeria it is understood by more people than proper English in Niger Delta & SE. Even great grand mothers in Sapele will speak it quite well.

Pidgin is a mix of local languages and Portuguese, Spanish, French, English, etc.

A word like sabi in "na you sabi". Sabi (know) comes from Portuguese word "saber" or to know. Originally from Latin word "sapere" for "to know". Also something like "fine shoes boku for my house". Boku is from French "beaucoup" or many.

In Ancient Benin City, before 1897, some local residents already spoke a pidgin version of Portuguese. Not surprising since the Portuguese first came around 1478. Presumably in Warri area too. So mixing what already existed with language (English) of the new colonial masters would have come naturally to people in that axis.

People talk of broken English & pidgin English interchangeably in error. They are different. Just because pidgin sounds simplified doesn't make it broken.
