Op kindly single out these tribes in Akwa.
Don't say Akwa Ibom in general.

We have many tribes in Akwa Ibom and this nonsense here is not applicable to my Annang tribe.

In Annang tribe cohabitation is prohibited. if a man must live together with a woman, then he must pay her bride price.

Note, in our tradition, bride price is not expensive, in some family bride price is not more than ₦100, while some is as low as ₦10, ₦20 and ₦50 with a bottle of dry gin.

For the father
1. Tobacco
2. Walking stick
3. One traditional wear with strikes of lions or tiger heads (what we call uko ekpe). This wear signify the strength of a traditional Annang man.
4 a traditional Annang cap


For the the mother.
1. One length of wrapper
2. A bag of salt
3. A smaller basin of crayfish
4 one umbrella.
5. 1 stick of dry fish

For the general house
1. 2 cartons of beer
2. 2 create of soft drinks
3. 1 create of malt
4. Football
5. 5. Packet of Cigarette.
6. 1 red and white chalk (usei)
7 1 bottle of dry gin
8. small fishes
9. 1 female goat (this is only applicable if the bride is the first daughter of the family)

The palm wine for the events is to be provided by the father in-law. After drinking the palm wine, the son in-law can put anything or even return the cup empty to the father in-law.
We are not like our eastern neighbours who demand for dollars before the cup could be returned back

With what its listed a man can marry a woman, if the man is incapable to afford these items, his kins men can do so in his behalf.

Therefore the the issue of cohabitation is impossible in my tribe. So the prospective son in-law cannot pay bride price of mother in-law.

Also note that, in our traditional Annang land, if a man refuses to pay his woman bride price, the family of the woman will not accept anything from him, be it food, drink, money, kola, water. The mother of the woman is prohibited from visited her daughter while in such marriage.
These make it more difficult for a man and woman to cohabit in my tradition

OP next time make ur research well and single out the tribe involved in some abominable tradition before thunda faya u

Kumuyi was once a JW member that's why most of his moves resembles that of JWs, if anyone knows his old magazines in the 80s/90s you will notice that all the artistic impressions were taken from JW magazines but photocopy type. So Kumuyi tried to hide his JW orientation but it wasn't easy today he's now trying to change everything because he discovered that with all his brain people like Adeboye, Oyedepo and Olukoya are making money and followers more than him.

How can you keep chasing another man's wife? Tueh. That's not se.xy at all.

Na so e take happen 💯 correct, even in Okigwe, Arinze did the same thing, he appointed a Bishop from Awka, a CWO chaplain... He is one of the half-baked Cardinals Francis appointed... Cardinal living in a rural Ekwulobia Diocese not even an Archdiocese... If a sensible and learned Pope was in charge then, who born Okpaleke well to be answering a Cardinal...

Mbaise people saved Catholic Church in Igboland, Arinze cannot appoint any Bishop in Igboland again, outside Anambra State...even the Archbishop of Benin is from Anambra, Bishop of Minna from Anambra, Mbaise people rubbished Cardinal Arinze...una do well jare

I am married to a Igbo man. We are based in Italy. We have 4 children 3 together. I have 3 girls for him. I tested positive for baby number 5 and we were discussing about the gender, my husband said something that makes me feel so bad.
He wants a son so bad. He said in Igbo tribe, a man is nothing without a son. I asked him what if we had another baby girl he said he will have no choice but to go to Nigeria and marry another woman who will bear sons for him so he can be a real man.
I asked him if he was serious then he changed his words saying he was joking, he doesn't mind the sex of our baby as long as the baby is healthy that is what matter.
I have been restless since he has mentioned about marrying a second wife even though he said it was a joke but I know that he wasn't joking, he was serious.
I want to know from igbo people, is it true that a man is nothing without a son and also what if the wife only bore female children is it compulsory for the man to marry a second one in Igbo tribe to bear him sons?

As usual, the foundation of Obi supporters is built on lies and insults. It cannot stand. You can take it to the bank, those words are more valuable than your bank account.

That is very factual.

Guyman02:
When Sardauna was killed by coupists in 1966, Tivs were so bitter with Igbos because they thought he was their brother having offered them some positions in his northern Nigeria Govt. Many Igbos who had escaped slaughter in the far north were waylaid and slaughtered in their thousands by Tiv mobs who blocked the roads to take revenge on behalf of the Fulanis.
When the civil war broke out, the bulk of the foot soldiers on the Nigerian side came mostly from the old Benue/ Plateau State while the Fulanis controlled the Officer cadre led by the genocidal Murtala Mohammed and also had Buhari. They were protected by not being deployed to very risky fronts.
It's amazing that the Tivs have now become endangered species in the hands of the same Fulanis they died defending, they didn't see what those Biafrans saw in 1966

Nwakaibe nbote fatherofjesus golan007If you are doubting pastor Chris or Oyedepo, then read this and understand what is come upon you.
I'm sure these pastor do not even know this, but there's something that is telling them to tell you not to take that vaccine.

https://www.lifesitenews.com/opinion/18-reasons-i-wont-be-getting-a-covid-vaccine
Also If the World Health Organization tells you to take an expired Vaccine, then know that there's something going on that you don't know about. How do we know the ones brought to Nigeria isn't also expired? These countries received the vaccine before us. But the point here is that WHO wants you to take something that's expired. (Repeat the last sentence again)

They can't cover up completely. Experts have have been speaking . They delete their channels on social media most times. Or delete their posts.
They don't allow mainstream media to publish such things thatvare contrary to their agenda . Can CNN criticise Joe biden ? That reporter will lose his job .. They have thier script which they follow . If a critic is very powerful to silence They will attack his personality. Just as Doctor Stella.
Also recently the former deputy director at Pfizer has . Been raising alarm for the vaccine to be stopped . It is dangerous .
Since he is a renown figure and can't be silenced They have started attacking him as unstable, old age Bla bla

petra1:
Then you're the real OLODO!
Many people are dying of vaccine . They are hiding the fact

There actually needs to be proper channels for adoption and wilful release of children to foster homes by parents who can't cater for them. We need to accept that reality in this part of the world so that people can stop doing things like this the wrong and criminal way.
Not everyone is financially capable or otherwise capable of caring for children. The whole adoption and foster home approach in Nigeria seems virtually non-existent.
Too bad!
