Slave of who?

Rice thieves? Or alamajiris?

The prophetess must have gone through hell for the past 23 years in the hands of her husband reason she has to end that deadly marriage reason she even had to take her kids along.

Nigerian men will beat their wife to coma.
Nigerian men will rape their wife and they would gladly tell you there’s nothing like rape in marriage. Very sick and disgusting men .

Nigerian men won’t even provide and take good care of their wife and children.

Take a look at the case of that gospel singer, Osinachi. Assuming she left that monster of a husband, she would have been alive till now.

U always talk trash on this forum....
Don't bother quoting cos I won't reply u

How can a child grow without knowing his/her fathet if the father did not deny the pregnancy? The child can only not bear the father's surname until bride price is paid.

DestinyNigga:
I hate this our Igbo culture. It's outdated. Imagine a child born outside marriage growing up without even knowing his father. Simple because, our useless tradition demind one useless bride price. They will now deny me my child because I did not marry her. Na thunder go fire whoever bring such tradition to our land!

izzou:
I agree with the judge.

But what kind of man marries a woman for 23 years, without settling with the family?

23 years, and you could not pay bride price?

U think it's easy

Magistrate Stephen Segun Rotiba is an idiót for insulting another man's culture. He's a proper donkey and lacks any form of exposure or experience

ForestHill:
Logically, could this be the reason Igbo women stays married more than 90% of all the tribes combined?

n the reason y igbos girls top in prostitution both home n away

Mitsurugi:
Oro too is devilish, discriminatory and downright demeaning

My Lord dey your lane

The tradition is to ensure things are done properly (however in the light of modern day sexual irresponsibility its failed) Imagine a prophet and prophetess living in fornication

So, the right way is for u to claim 4 children that are not ur biological children.


Is that proper way or foolishness and wickedness?


Meanwhile, are you people even doing it for proper way or to cash out big as they known you as as highest bidders?

The Magistrate erred in law. His judgement will be upturned on appeal

you are answering yourself,every tribe has its own custom and for a learned judge to call wicked and barbaric a custom that places high value on women and rejects baby mama,let all that have ears and eyes listen if you think you can be a father by just getting a woman pregnant in igboland you are wrong,those children are not yours,to everybody the two of you are just doing boyfriend and girlfriend,the first step to fatherhood is taking responsibility,if you cannot pay the brideprice of a woman you loved how can you be a father,if the judge is from Yoruba and they do anyhow that place it is there concern but In igboland we places high value on women and children,i

The magistrate should have demanded for witnesses from the Igbo extraction to establish whether such custom really exist and not to ignorantly criticize what he's not establish whether It exist.

They were cohabiting. There was nothing like marriage.

GrammarNazi1:

I stay in Anambra and women do this too.

So?

Women do it all over, does it make it right?
I said Lagos, because that is my environment.

Even their custom is designed to arm twist who ever has any relationship with them. Woyo tribe

I think the Judge went to far in his remarks (verdict)..... Too much emotion at play

Taylor94:

..there is no cheap olosho again because olosho are saying that fuel and dollars is high now...so olosho price has increased to 20k,. nawaoooo...see what Tinubu hard economy has caused 🙄

Why not do the right thing by the girl's family? Did the Prophet pick the Prophetess from the road? Everyone comes from a family and even if you choose to live a life of shame the family will not. Maybe the new husband did the right thing and was recognized by the woman's family as their son in law and father to their grandchildren.

You should check the old tradition of marrying a dead girl you've been f.cking and living with (or had children with) till she died. You must marry her properly before you bury her.

They might sound awry but most of these laws were to check the promiscuous and debased life we're contemporarily living. Let's call a spade a spade

That's why they don't have bastards amongst Igbo People

U no pay bride price and other customary rites yet u dey claim say u marry. As far as Igbo custom is concerned, they were just cohabiting and fornicating. Children borne to a fornicating unmarried woman belong with their mother's people. The judge is just funny.

Angelfrost:
If we talk, they start cursing us and calling us "White man's Slaves".

In this same Nigeria, certain cultures and traditions permit the maiming and even killing of kids accused of witchcraft... It is the same nation where cultural traditions turn a simple wedding ceremony into one of the most ridiculous forms of EXTORTION ever known to man.


I have nothing against trying to uphold or preserve our age-long traditions, but some or most aspects of these traditions have to be modified, as a matter of urgency... This is the age of advancement, for Pete's sake.

did you pay bride price when you married your wife

Ebeano49:
Imagine if an IGBO judge described a Yoruba tradition as "...barbaric, evil and ungodly...".
Our Yoruba brothers on this app would have gotten their knickers in a twist,

Because Yoruba custom is considerate and dowry payment is less costly.

You are trying to divert the subject matter here??
Did the woman file for domestic abuse?
How could a woman leave her husband to another man wit his kids??
Isn't there any member of the man's family she can report whatsoever be the matter and she took decisions on her own

Three bottles for you. I tire for this generation

GrammarNazi1:


The new guy might be impotent.

Imagine accepting another man's children when they have not been rejected by their own father.

Lol.

All the single girls wey full him area , na woman wey don born 3 or 4 na him dey hungry him to marry,
I bet u , he will fuuuccck hell out of the woman and abandon her one day

Like he slept with the woman and impregnated her?

If this did not happen, how then could he be recognised as the father of the children?

Is it okay to give girl belle then leave her after all the child is yours!

The reason for the culture is to place respect on the child and her mother


That's why Igbos have the lowest divorce rate in southern Nigeria


Una YellowBa women wey dey born give 6 men

In reality there was no marriage between the two of them, both of them were cohabiting for 23years..

The Judge have no right to rubbish Igbo tradition simply because it's acceptable in his tribe for a man and woman to cohabit under one roof without paying the necessary bride price..

How can a judge dissolve a non existent marriage to start with? How can you call a man husband and wife simply because they live under one roof?

theophorus:
This people and their barbaric act.
Two adults having lived together for 23 yrs and raise kids together, one of them decides to pack the children and claim because dowry wasn't paid.

Mumu, you know say dem no pay dowry before but you open leg make dem plough your vineyard.
After 23yrs, you come still dey do more mumu acts, instead make your people correct you, dem still dey support your mumu doings.

Dey play

In my place, na the woman's father get the child except you go back and perform traditional duties on both the woman and her children.

Stop fornicating with people's daughter is the essence of the custom...ordinary introduction you didn't do.
