Since madam Maria convinced abi confused me to try to follow European series, I nor get time for NL again.
I am watching Filinta now.
Finding out why Boris Efendi just smiled when a situation calls for it proves more entertaining than NL.   That's good. It's even more relaxing. Nairaland is never entertaining. Far from it. U are just noticing  . School kids, unemployed youths and scammers make up about 80% of this place. |

pocohantas: I have an uncle whose concubine did this too. Took all her kids to the America. The woman no even look back o, na when that my uncle lose im two wives, come dey sick anyhow, she came with her kids to see him. It was an emotional Christmas.
 Can u imagine. U will never have respect if u don't take your people to homeland. Forget the lovey lovey. Real marital problems will surface, time for your inlaw to respect you when u talk will come. One small boy or girl will use that to tab you. Your husband will treat you as he wish if he is eventually the bad type knowing fully well u don't have a base. Some of us want to run away from these village shenanigans honestly but they have their merits. Instead of me not going to my home to do my marriage, I will forfeit church wedding. In nsukka then,one parish priest made it compulsory that u must go to your papa house and do marital rites before u can come for marriage class. They know better than us, I guess.

pocohantas: I can’t explain it well, but Igbos are deeply tied to their roots and togetherness. You don’t really know a person except you know his/her ancestral home and that can never change. SanwoOlu can decide to demolish our house in Lagos, but that can’t happen in the village.
Various rites in Igbo land are also stressful, so no matter how long it takes, something must bring you back to them. It is better you start identifying with them early. Bless you for this. The only thing still keeping igbo people together is traditions like this. Do you know that that two children of one of our late chief who had so many wives and concubine almost comitted sacrilege. They met in USA, started going out and proposed. The mum of one of them insisted they come home for marriage. I think it's the babe that know she is igbo but don't know which part. Seems like her mum( one of the concubine) severed all ties with the chief and left naija. Na so everybody come naija. Land for the same town and the same village heading to the same family house  Your guess is as good as mine  They wouldn't have known had they done everything in Yankee |

evuna: Chinwetel Ejiofor's sister, Okonjo Iweala's children even Dora Akunyili daughter that married a white man all did their traditional marriage in the village.
There is more to these things. Someone even suggested using juice for traditional marriage. God forbid that I allow my future daughter not marry in the village. We bastardize our culture so much.
Look at Japanese, koreans and Chinese. they still love their culture and are more highly advanced than we that don't like ours.
Bro, at the end of the day, you will decide. Bu think about it very well. In 20years time, how will peo see my nephew. Can he be proud to attend some cultural functions. People will sit in the comfort of their bedroom and tell you that it doesn't matter.
I had such views about village people. I started getting closer to igbo tradition when I was in UNN. Nobody will kill her if she does the traditional marriage later than the so called white wedding. it's better to defer it and do the right thing than doing a shoddy show.
When you grow older, you will understand. Also, get closer to your village. join association. All those people saying that village people are bad are not correct. Thank God I have been liberated.
I even held a position in my community association for 3years.
Okpara me ibu Okpara. Read about the igbo concept of Ani/ala. all lands are not the same. Your ancestral home will always be your ancestral home. ala bu otu should never been encouraged.
Lastly, go and seek the counsel of an elderly man. Nairaland is filled with people who want to trample on igbo culture. don't seek traditional advice online. Go to the elders. May not necessarily be your village people. Go and meet elderly igbo men and seek their views.
Dalu. Thank u. Maybe other cultures are okay with it, not igbo. It usually backfires. U can even sneak in and do small one, then sneak out and do your city marriage. Babes that don't want to use their sense and secure their future. Pls leave them. No be person go tell them what's up |

City traditional marriage. She should envisage the future. It's not always rosy. If u don't take your man home, it's assumed you have a dysfunctional family. Your inlaw is taking note. That is the backbone of any woman. It sends warning to the inlaw that this girl is not to be messed with as her people are strongly behind her. Also during conflict that involves the customary law, u don't actually have a stand as u never observed the customary procedure of marriage. What u did in the city is ordinary party, not traditional marriage. |

lexy2014: Which school? That's what they always say, when u ask them where and which school, they will disappear  A family friend teaches at a foreign owned private school in maitama Abuja and she take home 150 as at the last time I know. Like few yrs ago. As at 10yrs ago, a graduate of music education that teaches at unity school Abuja was collecting 130k. That was her start off salary after youth service. She was sponsored with other teachers to go for one study in France for one yr by the govt. Study education in the uni and u will become hot cake. U will never stoop so low to apply to mushroom private schools. Also, Lagos is clustered. Quality teachers are needed outside Lagos especially in the middle belt and the north. |

mariahAngel: I thought the advice were meant for a married couple considering the title of the thread...
I had a married couple in mind when I commented, not two people wasting their time together. It's even worst if its a married person  Lusting after someone who isn't your spouse. The deed has been done already  But I don't think so. Cos as far as nairaland is concerned, women are not bold enough to admit they are lusting after someone while married  Little percentage of men that do that are mainly trolls and still they get roasted so bad they deactivate or abandon their usernames. On the other hand, I have seen something like that before. There was one that lasted for yrs, at a point, guy proposed yet no show. They are seen everywhere. Even heard she committed abortions. One particular yr, guy man said he don't want again. That's why I love my people, his age grade members, family and friends said he ain't going no where. Either her or no marriage and on no ocassions will they wanna hear he cheated or abused her. Well, I did see them couple of times and she looked happy with 2 kids and people around them said no problem. |
