Lol. Ibo women are buy one get 2 free. I’ve lost count of how many Ibo women guys pass for free back home.

Ibo girls are symbol of prostitution everywhere they go. Whether in Porthacort, Abuja, Kano, or Ondo, they constitute the highest number of prostitutes in Nigeria (no contest).

Having a high bride price doesn’t imply worth, it just showed the greedy archaic culture that your ancestors bestowed you guys with. Do the Americans pay bride price? What’s there to be proud of about high bride price which is purely due to rubbish tradition of greedy ancestors.

Same thing applied to the inheritance issue which is the main discourse of this thread. That same barbaric culture gave rise to women not being able to lay claim to their husband inheritance simply because some old ancestors made some claim.

Again I repeat, any Yoruba man that want to marry a hairy chest and leg like you deserved to be flogged to coma!

I have stayed in southwest and I marvel at the way the men womanize and have children outside wedluck, I won't even advice any of my siblings to marry a Yoruba man. They are womanizers, diabolic and cheats.
DEY ARE DISORGANISED AND CHAOTIC.


THEY THINK IT IS CIVILISED.

THEY SISTER WILL LEAVE HER MARRIED HOME AND COME TO DEMAND LAND AND PROPERTIES AND MONEY, WHICH ALWAYS RESULTS IN FIGHT AND JUJU.

Which Igbo woman wants to marry a Yoruba man? you must be day dreaming, unless time is no longer on the lady's side, no sane Igbo lady that is well brought up will want to marry a Yoruba ofe nmanu. Get out. I rather die than to marry a Yoruba man. What's so special about you guys? Is it the womanizing or the nonsense culture?
YOU WILL FIGHT THEIR SISTERS FOR PROPERTY THERE.

AFTER THAT, U WILL FIGHT THE NUMEROUS BABY MAMA.


THEN, U WILL FIGHT ALL THE REST OF HIS WIVES FOR PROPERTY.

IS NIGERIA NOW PRACTICING COMMON LAW?


U KEEP TALKING ABOUT A JUDGEMENT THAT HOLDS NO WATER LEGALLY,(INEFFECTIVE) TO IGBO CUSTOMARY LAW THAT IS ENSHRINED IN THE CONSTITUTION OF THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA, IN BLACK AND WHITE FOREVER.

Brothers of the deceased chase both the widow and her daughters away from the property of their father. If the widow is young she herself becomes property to be inherited by one of the deceased's brother. Its not about a man's will in iboland. Fvk that. The culture is the will. The culture says both wife and daughter shall not partake in the inheritance. CNN has done a coverage on this before. This is not a secret. No need to twist it.
THIS IS Y SOME IGBO WOMEN WILL TELL YOU, THAT THEIR SON IS THEIR JUNIOR HUSBAND.

IN IGBOLAND, WIDOW ARE NEVER ANY PROPERTY TO BE INHERITED BY ONE OF THE DECEASED BROTHERS, THAT IS A LIE.


THE WIDOW IS ASKED TO PICK ANY OF THE SON OF THE LAND, TO CALL ON IN HER TIME OF NEED.


MOST TIMES, THE WIDOW PICKS HER BIOLOGICAL SON.

IGBO PEOPLE ARE HIGHLY ADVANCE.


IN IGBOLAND, A WIFE MARRIED INTO THE FAMILY HAS MORE RIGHT OVER ANCESTRAL LAND THAN THE DAUGHTERS OF THE LAND, WHO ARE MARRIED OFF. THE WIFE INHERIT IT, BUT THE DAUGHTERS CANNOT.


WE DONT WANT A SITUATION WHERE DAUGHTERS WILL BE COMING TO FIGHT DAUGHTER INLAW FOR ANCESTRAL LAND AND PROPERTIES.


THAT IS Y THEY ARE ENCOURAGED TO SIEZE THE ONE IN THEIR HUSBAND HOUSE AND LEAVE THE ONE IN THEIR FATHER HOUSE TO THEIR BROTHER AND WOMEN(WIFE) COMING INTO THE FAMILY TO INHERIT.

LaboPolitics:
I laugh in Odenigbo.

What they have refused not saying here is that whenever an Igbo lady gets married, the father settles her with her own inheritance as she goes into her husband's house and bears a new surname. I've seen Igbo men settle their daughters with houses, estates, cars, and other valuable properties as she goes into her husbands house. My mom was settled by her family with 2 ladies motorcycle in the days when owners of white horse bicycles were respected. Teachers and civil servants rode bicycles to work then.

It is the husband that marries the woman and her post-marital inheritance lies in her husband's domain no longer in her father's house. Her mother's inheritance is also hers in Igbo custom.

What the law will simply encourage is for criminal minded men to marry ladies from wealthy families so as to share in the largess and wealth of their father-in-laws and confront brother-in-laws for properties that they were not present when the 'sweat laid the bricks'. Chaos!

The yoruba Judge simply read an academic note not a judgment. He is not ethnically-wired to understand the nittygritty of that customary law and why wise elders of Igbo land enacted it thousands of years before his forefathers were born.

The law is deeper than quoting paper sections and subsections, it is unimplementable. You can't force Igbo men to will their properties into another family where their daughter married into after settling the daughter with her properties when they got married.
