Sir did you attend university ? It does not show from your writing

toren:

If she really wanted you, nothing in this world would make her reveal to her family that you have only SSCE, even if a gun was pointed to her head. Forget the tears she's shedding.

Spherical77:
The Op is not illiterate but they ain't on the same in terms of formal education

Marrying your level is very key in this life trust me. If not for anything, at least for peace of mind

I'm very sure there are girls that would be admiring the Op around. He's probably not giving them attention mainly because they aren't educated

Some Men are like that, once they had very little or no education. They'd want to marry an educated lady

Let him give those girls chance and go for anyone of them since he already said there's no crime for a school cert holder to marry a graduate

Then it would be an honour, if he go for any of those girls with either no formal education or had same school cert

GraciousGod190:

thanks very much, I appreciate.

Lolz. How many paper certificate does Facebook owner has? Mark Zuckerberg doesn't have more than high school (secondary school) certificate, yet none of your family members can ever be as rich as he is.

You are a dumb man that doesn't know he is dumb.

shantti:


Bro, u are not upgrading urself for her, you are upgrading yourself for yourself. Let her go. There are adult programmes you can run in a year or two to get a bsc.

Elporo:


Na money e no get. Shikena

tarantino1:




Leave that guy with his wonky grammar.

Imagine someone like that telling someone to upgrade himself.

GraciousGod190:

no bro, am a business man.
finishing Ssce is enough, am 36 years old I should upgrade myself because her family refused to accept me for who I am.
if this is the end of our relationship, so be it.

Isaac newton was not as rich as Mark Zuckerberg, but because of him, the cars you drive and stuffs were engineered. You need to think more of life than money. You have money but can't actually improve life, or build something just like the owner of tesla elon musk. Have you seen an interview elon musk had with Jack ma? Go watch it and see how foolish and dumb jack ma was. Elon musk was angry he was debating with a fool who only has money but not knowledge. Also, remember mark was in school when Facebook launched, he stole it from some who is more intelligent than he was. There are so many types of schools. Either you learn a skill and get a certificate in a school that is not called university, or you do that in a university. And the mark is learned he is a programmer or developer and he learnt the skill and has a paper certificate to prove that. He just didn't become an engineer, these are the difference

Godbless3:
Stop crying and wake up. That girl don't even want to marry you in the 1st place and she wasn't ready to let the cat out knowing fully well she has been benefactor of your riches.
She knew you're ssce holder but your cash was ok.
You mate her parent on sunday for the 1st time, you let your intention known, and left, on monday your gf call you that she wants to come over and she did. She openly tell you that her brother and mother is against the union just because you're ssce holder only and she didn't protest about her choice to her parents, atleast try over a week to convince her family but she spew it to you and you belief that shit.
Bros the signs are written all over.

Let's remind your cursed head that this is not the 17th century of Isaac Newton; rather, this is the 21st century, where you don't have to go to school before you get things done and even become an inventor.

Your brain is fixated on the stone age. Wake up to reality of the present age and quit making a fool of yourself.

Elon musk is building a car which you can drive without fuel, building space ships, and what is the so called mark doing? He has money yes, but of course he lacks the ability to build new things that are beyond his scope, because he can't really read, or how else should I present it?

TheOldGods:
ofcourse as usual you can't make a comment without an insult. It's obvious

That's where you are wrong bro. First of all education in itself is a personal responsibility. Schools where built to structure and provide formal education. Universities were specifically created by entrepreneurs to train and create more workers to improve their businesses .

The narrative has changed

0m0nnakoda:
You conflate a degree with education
They are not the same thing

You talk about marrying "your level" . This is a concept that makes sense perhaps in your mind. What poxy level are you talking about.

The most important level in Nigeria is the neighbourhood where you grow up. That is what determines who you know and how doors open for you
If you went to King's College in the 70s or 80s you were better positioned whether or not you had a degree, to go far in life . There are a few other secondary schools with that level of elitist privilege and exposure. Fact!! That is where you learn to mix with elites not by getting useless degrees
If you grow up in Ikoyi degree or no degree you are automatically on a different level from those who grow up in Ajegunle.

sammirano3:
Op. Whether you like it or not the family's decision is final. I stand by such decision. Why would i strife to make my daughter well read for her to settle with one pot belly ssce holder who thinks cause he understands and speak English is enough. Money is inconsequential in this instance. Frankly, you are like a liability to the young woman. Worse off you are unwilling to work for what you want.

GraciousGod190:
Am hurt, 4 years relationship about to go down the drain.first time meeting her parents was last week Sunday, they did welcome me with a smiling face.
After all the introductions and making my intentions known to them I like to marry their daughter.

my girlfriend called me on phone yesterday that she's coming over, which she did and start saying that her elder bro and her mum is kicking against our marriage. i asked why? she said because am an Ssce holder.

yes I might be an Ssce holder, but am self employed doing well for myself (I noi de beg to chop) isn't that enough.

can't an Ssce holder marries a bsc, msc or a phd holder.
why the discrimination towards a brother because of a white man education?
because of a white sheet of paper.

mibrims:

Bro try and upgrade if you can, part time will fit you because of your business, your next generation deserves better, stop being proud of illiteracy, i guess you are thinking of marrying someone with Ssce too? White man this white man that, you attend Sunday service and also have plans for a white wedding? Age is jst a number oga..
my wife’s family will never give out their daughter’s hand in marriage to an Ssce holder
I always advise pple marry their levels
E get why

MALIGNANTGuest:
That's why I frown when I see men who struggled & became successful settling down for LEECHES.

When you become a successful bachelor, please don't compromise your marriage.
Make sure you visit the location where higher classes reside, then propose to any family there.

TheOldGods:


Changes to what if I may ask? Perhaps we should stop training doctors in the university, I guess after all they can only have ssce and do operations, by just meeting a doctor in a clinic and learn without having a certificate. I am a lab scientist, yes but I don't practice it, I went into animation, and I make more than my friends, but I can tell you, I want to go and learn computer science as a new course or masters if possible, because there is a lot I don't really know, no matter how much I ask google ads

tarantino1:


Una too dey talk without sense sef

Most courses being offered by Nigerian universities are scam and you know it.

Walk into a random department (with the exception of medicine courses) and you'll probably be able to bribe your way out and graduate with a second class upper.

If the guy is doing well in life already, there is absolutely nothing that a university degree is going to teach him.

All those part time students wey dey bribe lecturers, carry expo inside hall go still dey open mouth talk as if nor be them we dey watch.

The face that you can buy a degree shows how worthless it is entirely. If it had any form of value, you would not be able to.

Arrant nonsense.

Hope you know the field medicine existed way longer than the concept of University existed. Every thing taught in the college of medicine wer discovered through personal education.

really? And infectious diseases killed billions of people. Ordinary malaria killed for year's. Or not to think about the eradication of a lot of things like lice etc.

Ask your grandfather, how there health care was back then
