Nigerian women are not even in the Top 4 of most beautiful women in Africa.

It may surprise you that that guy is older than this lady.

Some ladies have such type of body and looks and are way younger than their fiance and boyfriend.

Use to be like that in my place but now 4th cousins can marry. They will just kill a goat to appease their ancestors(free meat for the elders).

Are you fat and short?

If yes, no man should have anything serious to do with you other than sex (he has to be blindfolded to even fvck you).

Short girls are arrogant and disrespectful
Fat girls are lazy, dirty, unattractive and irredeemably useless

Imagine a man having to cope with these traits?

Just imagine it and get back to me

1st cousins have the same grandparents. Their parents are all siblings.
2nd cousins have same great grandparents
3rd cousins have same great great grandparents
4th cousins have same great great great grandparents
5th cousins have same great great great great grandparents
6th cousins have same ……etc harsh
🟡Omo ur culture harsh o. If they wanna marry from 6th cousins, nobody should stop them. Muslims do that wella.

Health implications for lst cousins even 2nd cousins & very close relations not too far down the line marrying are too dastardly. Omo we have blood not clotting well, that was even the genesis of Leukemia, when royal families years past decided to marry themselves.
The health implications caused the culture to be discouraged among the English.





There are two 2nd cousins in my family who got married sha, agaińst all insistence. Grandmother said over her dead body. When the relationship began.

They were very stubbornly in love and simply waited for Grandmother to die & oldest man in family to die and they married 💍💍💍wella. Today, they have two children 👧🏾 👦 . Husband, wife children everybody almost same face undecided same blood 🩸 🥲.
former emir of Kano lamido sanusi ist wife is the daughter of his late uncle ado bayero... And in Islam it's okay to marry a cousin... Families actually okay such to keep bondness and closeness of the family...

Barter or exchange system of marriage was the common form of wedlock in those days.

Anita from family "A" will be given to John from family "B" in exchange for Mary from family "B" who will be given to Paul who is from family "A".

One advantage of this form of marriage is that John would not maltreat Anita because that will jeopardize the marriage of his sister Mary.

In this present case, there was exchange of brides between the two families many generations back.

These brides are not the great grand parents of the couple to be.

The groom and his father are not in good terms since the father married a second wife. The man it is understood is using the above narrative to 'destroy' the groom.

Members of both families have investigated the matter and given a nod of approval for the marriage rights to proceed.

This is what I gathered from a reliable source.
My guy, well done for this ya report. E make sense O. Now people suppose get sense make they nor dey carry business wey concern man and woman for head. He go dey too heavy I tell you.

Yes that is why once you introduce your fiancee to your family they will set up investigative team to go to her community to do back ground finding one of which is to find out if you are related in anyway.

Under the Old Testament laws, cousins where permitted to marry. Do your research and confirm it.

It is genetically & medically dangerous to marry a first cousin . Or close family member. Poor blood 🩸 clothing/Hemophilia In offsprings, Habsburg jaw , poor mental health, amongst other genetic illnesses magnified in close relatives inbreeding . Inbreeding can eventually wipe out most of an entire lineage


The portraits of the Harsburgs will make you see how messed up inbreeding is . Some could not chew their foods.
