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.

Temmylee01:
my current girlfriend will finish service on Thursday, and here I am with ssce result though I'm planning on furthering my education but that will be after I settle down.... Currently am all about making money I can further at any given time..... So if by the time am ready for marriage and her family kick against it, I will move on asap.

michigang:
but you elected buhari to be your president

trevorhorace:

U can see you are already missing the point.

Well I'll leave you with this thought, who would you refer to as educated, a mechanical engineering graduate who cannot fix a tyre or roadside kunle that satisfactorily repairs about 10 different heavy duty vehicles daily? Who would you trust with your grandfather's bicycle

Be good now

Which public office requires higher institution certificate in Nigeria or any other country you know of?

toren:


GraciousGod190, take the advice of this person I quoted. As a female myself, I can tell you that she's 100% right.

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.

The person I'm in love with is an ND holder. I did not only tell my mum that he has BSc, also lied about his job/financial status. I can't let my family or anyone else for that matter look down or judge him. Besides, it's nobody's business.

So, your girl is either playing you or is too childish to handle such matters.

GraciousGod190:

getting married to a woman can't motivate me to upgrade my educational background.
already told her it's over so be it, she's the one shedding tears over here.

dahmie2013:

My brother, seeking knowledge has nothing to do with age. This attitude is not the best. I still advise you go to school and upgrade yourself.

pocohantas:


Except her father himself is a professor, I don’t think it is a question that comes up when the man is doing well for himself. A man that they saw physically.

I hope with time men will begin to understand the times we are in. An educated YOUNG girl in her prime won’t just marry the average advanced bachelor when she has options. That thing ended in 1998 when Anambra traders were marrying doctors/lawyers and keeping her in their shops. Even if she wants to, her parents would help her buy time. They know how to do that very well.

In this generation of iPhone and fur-slippers-girls, she will chop your money, help you to waste your time till you clock 40. Then she’ll disappear when you least expect it.

Love is not enough. Let’s all be realistic and strategic in this thing. There are many other superficial factors that foster compatibility.

descarado:

If you go to onitsha, most of the traders there are schooling. Yes. They want to level up to the society standard.

He should go to school.
It is a criteria.
Ladies have done worst for the men they love.
Where I am, a guy I know very well abandoned his betrothed after this babe paid more than half of the asking price for international students with all her life savings for him. Initially, it was my babe, my babe, next is if I ask how is your babe at home, he will say forget that. This was a babe he has allowed me face time with her.
Guy is not ready to go back to Nigeria.
Busy courting oyibo babes here and there.

Girls have defied their parents and took in, eloped, went to live with their men when parents said no.
Some girls from very rich family has stooped so low to marry guys that didn't even finished college.
The first daughter of whiz oil, a very very rich man married one guy that came to her fathers place to look for menial job.

Let me hear pls. When it comes to a man stooping low for the ladies they love, we will start hearing stories.

DaddyRochie1642:



Your English and your writing is good for an Ssce holder.

descarado:
This is the Nigerian system we are talking about.
You just integrate yourself into the system
Many traders went to outreach programmes. It's not even serious. Mostly weekend.
Why didn't you do that.
Sometimes money isn't enough.

Sometimes, so.e families will reject wife to be simply because of this except she is a student.

Go and enrol into the nearest school close to you.
Afterall orji uzo kalu become a graduate as a governor. Money isn't enough in this case.
When you enrol, go back again and meet them. They won't say no.
Unless you find the girl not worth fighting for. In that case, I will say, move on.

Most business men in onitsha are graduates.
Nigeria especially igbo value higher institution although we have chunks of graduates without work every year.

Spartachico007:


That means I should have dropped out of the university when my ex left me na cus na the same story happen to me and I focused on my business and my studies and I graduate despite she’s the reason I sort for admission

TEACHER4REAL:
Degree is not ordinary paper it is knowledge and knowledge is power and they might be right in there own one because marriage requires compatibility so that they can reason in similar direction and not just money

You are actually making sense. And I would like to do this online training.

Not everyone will be an employer you are right.
Not everyone wants to be an employee
I only compared you based on what YOU WROTE> No one forced you to write it
If you want to retract it , fine but you are the one that was making empty boasts

Secondary school education is formal and so you are mis-formulating the issues
You do not know what education is.
Degrees are not what make you educated. Many people have them and are worse than useless. We are living in an internet era and anyone can educate himself about virtually anything
You are AGAIN conflating degrees with education
My point is that a good secondary school education is enough to live a successful life at the highest level and most of the outstanding businessmen in history did not go to university
You claim majority of Nigerians travelling out do so through education route

HOW DO YOU KNOW
WHERE ARE YOUR FACTS?FIGURES
WHAT DOES THAT PROVE?

Not just Dangote but many other Nigerian businessmen of note never went to university.
Innoson, Dantata, Igbinedion

queenblossom:

There is nothing like upgrading yourself. I am a successful business woman and a graduate. But I am still upgrading myself. I still register for more courses on business and marketing, because I see that I have a strong passion for business and marketing. A lot of people think I studied marketing in my first degree.
So my brother, this should motivate you to upgrade your knowledge.
But is good as you are saying you can't upgrade yourself because of your girlfriend. That really shows how much you love her and if the marriage was going to last or stand the test of time. You think marriage is easy. Just one test, you failed woefully.

Fashion designers, mechanics, doctors, lawyers, business men/ women, cobblers et al are all vast and well enlightened in their chosen field.

Mentioning Dangote this and that who never attended college and become wealthy is just funny to me. Why then do we have poor people within us who had just school cert or even nothing and went ahead to learn a trade, skill or whataview? Your comparism is baseless because the opportunity those people you are flaunting their names here and there had till thy kingdom come majority don't have it presently and they are most likely not going to have it. That's the reality

There are hundred of thousands of eductionist in Nigeria who had written their names in gold and made history. Mind you, they don't neccesarily have to be amongst the top 100 billionaires. They are much successful in their chosen career. Thus, that had paved way for their generation

You always sound so ridiculous young man. You're asking me to give you fact to buttress my point with regards the easiest route Nigerians had been plying leaving the shores of the country? I presume Google is your friend right? You can also get the right response on this platform

Or better still, bring forth a young guy who had just school cert and venture into business. Then let me bring forth another young guy who had his first degree and wanted to leave the shores of the country

Let both of them meet at the embassy and watch whose request would be granted first

If you must make comparism man, let it be on a neutral ground. Make comparism with those average Nigerians living with us.

Those who had degree and those who had just a school cert and learnt a skill or business are all living within us

Lastly, stop the Dangote, Otedola and the likes that you are parabulating with at every sight. Like i said earlier, we do have successfully education laurels which i wouldn't want to bore you with by listing their names (local and international)
