Men don't gossip, they address issues.

Standards are meant to be broken, that's why they are there.

^^ sharappp diaaaa jooo, new bie indeed

Ah ah. What a way to grace his first post.

Funny thread.

EAC BLAZE:
@THEBLESSED Paying of dowry cant stop because the bible recommended it, Though most hungry families were abusing it by hiking the bride price

In order to make profit,In igboland people termed it to be expensive but it still depends on the family you are goin

Am forseeing in the nearest future, People's culture will fade out,

The reason why there's increase in divorce and other useless activities in the soceity today is because we re emulating other countries way of life

So people should go along with a practice just because the Bible says so? Recall that the Bible also says you should kill unbelievers (Deut 17:12)

I think Theblessed has some serious points. What is the underlying principle for dowries and how can that be reconciled with the fact that we are to treat women with dignity.

temmytanny:
I paid 500k for my akwa ibom gurl but that includes total cost of the traditional wedding

Now that's a real bargain.  

Because of this piece of info pretty girls from that region have just gone up two notches in my Desirable Girls Chart.  

tom28:
For an igbo girl you have to pay 60 k(sixty thousand naira),20 crates of soft drinks,five herds of cattle,10 kegs of palmwine,10 cartons of beer,a loapard skin,4 boxes of snuff, and an expensive lace for her mom.
For a yoruba girl it has to be 20k(twenty thousand naira) and you have to have at least a PH.d.
For a hausa or fulani girl you have to be a muslim and a jihadist before her parents consider you for marriage and no dowry is required
For an edo girl the dowry is not expensive
For a white girl its dowry free
And for an indian girl it would be her parents paying you the dowry
Hope i have cleared up the issue

What in the world would they want to use that for.

Tell them. No one likes man juice and lady nectar on their food.

It's not just an Igbo thing, women the world over generally flee from wussies.

ifyalways:
^Mr I-too-know,have u been to the whole of Igboland?There are no hidden charges whatsoever in my place and the 'bridal list' itself spans into 2 pages of petty things that can't cost more than 150K,give or take. . .my place,not what "you" think to be true for the whole of Igboland.

Ahh. I seem to have ticked off a raw nerve there with my assumptive statement. I apologize.

Nevertheless it is widely believed that Alaigbo has one of the highest dowries and bride prices in this country. Where did this belief (whether correct or not) come from?

ifyalways:
N54(FIfty four naira) for a graduate and N36 (thirty six) for a non-graduate.my place.Very fair and pocket friendly,lol.

Pocket friendly till you see the hidden charges that come with the above. Igbo dowries are unnecessarily exorbitant.

Leonoel202:
is our government encouraging witch craft? Children who are really witches should be punished, they kill the growth of the society.

Obtuseness is deep in this one. smh

Nice

I told y'all this place is also called nookie kitchen.

obailala:
This is the sort of thing u get when the government is too efficient and the country is so peaceful. The demons trapped in men always wants some freedom to act but when there is no opportunity to misbehave, the animal in man siezes the slightest albeit meaningless opportunity.

Meaning efficient governments should not be desired? Very smart, dude, very smart.

And the dude comes here to tell all that his GF can't cook his favorite soup?!

Truly some have no shame.

rafhell:
no way, genevieve can never be considered for a role in bond. aside for her bad accent, she is got a bad breath,  believe me

Her publicists needed to be applauded for spinning such an unbelievable rumor. Imagine the unthinkable.

Bisjosh:
Every region or tribe have d food in which they specialize in. Just as ibos are gud at egusi,calabar at edikangikong and yorubas at efo riro and ewedu with gbegiri. So stop hyping one than d others and mind u its nt all calabar gals dat are gud in bed. Its nt a tribe thing. Av seen a calabar gal saluting a yoruba gal for her bed skills.

Nothing wey we no go read for this Nairaland.

playmode:
Personally when next i visit Nigeria and i see an Indian or Lebanese (no matter how rich he is) treating my brothers like dirt be rest rest assured that i will give him a piece of my mind(that is if i don't slap his cheek of his face first).

Na wa o.

ritchboy:
MW3 should pick up where MW2 left off so don't expect anything new. Makarov must die!

Till you mentioned it I just realized that Makarov slipped out of focus at the end of MW2 and General Shepard took his place. I guess the developers were saving him for MW3. I think it will be the remaining members of Task Force 141 that will take him out.

That story line might be interesting to only gamers who have played MW and MW2 but I wonder how first timers might take to it in MW3, its becoming too steeped. Anyhow it will be a ton of fun to play. I hope the BF3 story will be a completely new one such that people like me who haven't played any BF games will not feel left out. Lets see.

violent:
Hahaha, some people are actually waiting for the president's reaction? are you guys naive or something?  Okay, just in case you are being naive, i'd tell you what the reaction will be:

We'd get a a long boring speech of how "some bad elements" who "being controlled by demon" will stop at nothing to see Nigeria break apart.  And how me,, Goodluck Enebele Azikwe Babangida junior, have directed the National Security adviser to set up a joint task force consisting of men of the Nigerian navy, aifroce and Army, to fish out these "bad elements" and make them face justice.

"You can be rest assured that i feel every pain you are going through . . .when i was in school, i carried my books on my head and I trekked everyday barefooted from home to school.

You forgot to add that he didn't wear underwear when he went to school.

I think your post was spot on.

For now it is unconfirmed, but I did hear an explosion.

The greatest movie ever?

The Big Lewboski.

I think the correct way to say this is 'Why Gamers in Nigeria Don't Play Online Games'. See what I did there? 
There are Nigerians in other countries that play online games alot. It is just in Nigeria where this peculiar trend is observed and lies mostly with the second point Dolemite listed; internet speed issues. Our so called broadband isn't broad enough to support online gaming. I tried to hook my PS3 up with PSN and was frustrated out because of lag problems.

I haven't really played any BF games so I don't know how its story goes but the COD story line has become something of a cliche if you ask me. I mean, it's about the Russians taking on the USA and her allies, a theme that has been rehashed many times over in popular media to no end. Unless they do something very different in MW3 - like they did with the first MW - I don't think the story is going to change much.

Judging by the graphics in the trailers so far BF3 does come very close, indeed even surpassing COD according to some. Lets see how they both fare when they are released. All this promises to be more fun for us gamers. 

EDITED

I say the apparent similarities are just coincidental. It is tempting to want to link the two cultures together.
