TheSkyIsBlue:
My Sister Is About To Commit A Serious Taboo All In The Name Of Marriage

Hello Nairalanders!

Please ignore any typographical or grammatical error. I just want to pour it out the way it is in my heart.

I am seriously confused and worried about what is happening in my family and I will appreciate your candid advice.

There is this guy my sister has been in a relationship with for over seven years now. so he actually asked her hand in marriage and decided to come see my parents for introduction, about some months ago. My family decided to take their time to find out more about the guys family background as is required in Igbo tradition.

After several questions asked, my family came to find out that the guy is an Osu (an outcast). On knowing this, everybody in my family told my sister to cut ties with him and discontinue the relationship because it is a big taboo to get married to an Osu in my place . If you do, no family member or friend will attend your wedding or even have anything to do with you again.

But my sister refused to listen to anybody claiming she really loves the guy, that they have been together for a very long time and that she is not getting younger anymore (mind you, she is in her early thirties). Everybody (my parents and extended family members) tried to talk her out of it but she still didn't listen.

After much pressure and her continues insistence, my dad decided to give them his blessings, although against his wish (my dad is actually not really deep into tradition). Now the guy has done all the traditional rights and paid for her dowry. Their wedding is coming up soon.

But the problem now is, according to tradition and from what I heard, if she was allowed to go with the guy without my dad giving them his blessings, the stigma would have just been on her and she alone would have been considered Osu, since she insisted to continue with the marriage. But now that my dad has given them his blessings, it is considered that all of us (her siblings) will also have that link of Osu too. Except if she decide to put an end to the relationship and discontinue with the wedding, which I don't think my sister is ready to do.

I am really worried and depressed about it, cause I don't want anything that will affect me tomorrow when I want to get married just because of my sister's mistakes.

I will really like to get opinions and sincere advice especially from those that are familiar with tradition, cause I'm seriously bothered. Thanks!

Op sounds like a selfish tribalist resistant to change.
Op sounds like she's gonna readily sacrifice her twins to aleku & amadioha in the evil forest in 2023 of her osu priest says so

Op you need Jesus

solmusdesigns:




why not go ad clear his name , its stupid to start throwing defense on a case we dont have details about



..

It's saddening when you read reactions like the press release put up by that body
Even more so by the majority of comments on this space
Ignoramuses everywhere.
They trivialise and tribalize everything

Some people get mind sha

The dude in the attached photos met his Waterloo this morning when he attempted stealing armored cables from a transformer in Dutse Sokale axis of Abuja.

Currently the area and surrounding environs have been plunged into darkness pending when AEDC folks will come to fix up the mess.

I'm just wondering what he's gonna say to the angels at the pearly gates when he'll be asked what brought him there in an untimely fashion.

For days I've been so weak bro, I'm so out of thoughts. I really bleeped up, I know.

I actually kept my distance from her, the first day, she slept in the bedroom, while I in the living room. I fell to some cheap plays, and she cornered me. I'm seriously regretting my actions.

This is a girl that have been praying with me(and for me) before I sleep or go to work the next day. I shouldn't have do this to her. It seems that I can't live with the guilt, neither do I wanna loose her.

Her friend is already ignored, both off and on-line.

I fell to some cheap plays, and she cornered me. I'm seriously regretting my actions.... Yen yen yen


Dude stfu & be a man
She seduced you my black behind
You sound laughable
It's your version we're hearing
Heaven knows it may have been the other way round but alas we can't hear her side of the story.

I suggest you make a conscious effort not to cheat on her again but don't tell you girl.
For all we know her friend may claim you raped her when confronted with the truthamd your poor babe would feel betrayed ultimately.

For all the prayer and good boy image you're painting you forgot the Potiphar wife story when u needed it most.

Sukueponmalu:
Lmfao.
Clowns everywhere .
Who the hell are these idiots to dictate to the FG??

So laughable indeed
The person they're pleading for even jumped bail but somehow they all seem to be forgetting that part.

Then they have the audacity to dictate terms for the figutive's return.

Bunch of jokers

Just like the story of little Success in Sapele, Delta State early this year. What was meant to be a mockery just to earn social media likes became a life changing blessing.

FROM MOCKERY TO GLORY! ...this should be the caption.

Success ' own wasn't about mockery
It's just catching trips
Get your mind right

blackboy:
Madam. You are a married woman! A wife ! A mother! You are talking of seeking attention outside. Which is worse? A child seeing her mother a good example of a mother n wife while her husband is not appreciating her 100% or a case she sees her mother as a slut whom her husband does not appreciate?
Madam make it work. He no beat you. No carry you hand commot from house again. Make it work. A man you can ask to buy baby food means you can talk to him. Sit him down and talk to him

So should she die first or continue in this emotional trauma or be infected with sti which he'll probably bring home soon or let the situation degenerate to physical abuse before it dawns on y'all that she needs to leave that mudafuckah like since yesterday?

The biggest scam in Nigeria is the for better for worse lie.

Ask Nigeria and the unequal yoke holding the north and south together

Madam for your peace of mind and mental wellbeing leave that fukker asap


Thank me later

As sad and irresponsible of the FSARs as this event is....this goes far to approve of the reasons why we must seek to pursue only legitimate means of livelihood.

Now, the dead can't defend themselves cos they heaped guilt on themselves by running.

May the rescued get quick recovery and a mind to turn a new leaf... And may the dead rest in peace.

If the young man, Kolade Johnson that SARS killed while he was watching a football match had maybe a chance to run, he might still have been alive now.
So shut the Bleep up by that they heaped guilt on themselves by running crap

Eteka1:
Which Country will splinter? If you don't like living in Nigeria or regret being a Nigerian as you say, you are free to fly out to any "perfect" Country of your choice and stop distracting those patriotic ones who believe in Nigeria and are contributing their quota to nation building.

Contributing quota to nation building indeed.

That's laughable and you know it

They're simply lining their pockets in the guise of the so called nation building

Commentor:
But he claims NNPC didn't publish it on their website.

Which is it?

By the way, just say you are angry oil has been discovered up north, people would respect you.

Naaah
I ain't angry that oil has been claimed to be discovered up north.
Why would I be?
It would even make the North take this issue of restructuring more seriously.


On whether the info is on their website
Those are phantom claims and you can take that to the bank.

Ignore the error on the writer's part
