Without any doubt divorce in marriages between Igbo partners or an Igbo lady to a man from another tribe constitute the highest rate of divorce in Nigeria. I recently watched a video where a Nigerian lady who reside in the UK said about 90% of divorce in Nigerian marriages in the UK involve Igbo women.

Igbo men are the main cause of divorce in marriages involving Igbo ladies. Why? They believe money is everything (the beginning and end) in the relationship. Since they mostly worship money, they also believe everyone worship money or should worship money.

Igbo men are the men who sold the mentality of transactional relationship and marriage to their women.

Igbo men are men that believe with money you can marry a lady against her wish. An Igbo man will approach a lady for marriage and the lady will clearly tell her NO to his marriage proposal but the man will go to any length to spend money in order to lure the lady into marriage. He can spend heavily on the ladies family members, open business for parents and siblings etc. They end up using money to marry a lady with zero emotional connection to them after selling a transactional mentality to the lady and here's where the trouble start from day one.

The lady was never in love with you. Please understand that I'm not saying a man shouldn't provide for his wife or money isn't good o. Money makes relationship sweet and sweeter but a relationship build solely on money won't last because it always lack emotional connection from the side of the lady.

There are men that provides heaven and earth for their wife yet their physical presence irritates their wife and you mostly find Igbo men in this category. Igbo man can go to any length including soling his hands in dirty acts to make money in order to impress madam yet madam have zero emotional connection with oga.

Most stories about how a young man will suffer, struggle and send his girlfriend to school and the lady will later refuse to marry to man citing class imbalance are found among Igbo men.

How about the men who suffer, commit crimes to make money abroad come back to Nigeria to spend almost all their saving on a girl and her family to marry the girl only for the lady to divorce him within few months or years when she get abroad ? Most are Igbos.

I watched a podcast where a lady praised Igbo men for always prioritising their women over themselves, in the podcast she said an Igbo man can look haggard but for you to confirm if he has money go and checkout the wife.

Majority of the bitter feminist online recruiting young ladies to hate men are Igbo ladies and my question is:

If Igbo men pride themselves as the best when it comes to taking care of their wives then why the high rate of divorce among Igbo marriages?
Why are Igbo ladies exhibiting bitterness everywhere in the name of feminism ?

UPDATE:

I forgot to add that one of the main reason an Igbo men will spend heaven on earth to get a lady is that they believe it puts them in charge to dominate and control not just the lady but her family. But the funny reality is it usually don't work the way they think.

First post in R. Section after my come back

Please how many of these marriages do you personally observe for you to make this conclusion that igbo Men are the problem.

next time make sure to state that this is your personal opinion because you are not talking to your family members you are talking to the general public

You are going to need to provide better evidence than a video you watched for this to be accepted as any sort of fact, because most of us will not accept pigs fly just because we watched a video of flying pigs.

This isn't far from the truth

Especially if one doesn't have a clue what truth is, and is too lazy to go seek it.

Do Igbos divorce more than other Nigerian tribes?

Okay Igbo Voltron... my submission is from my own observations. You can keep asking Google or your favourite ai chatbot

You did say it's from your own observation of "a video where a Nigerian lady who reside in the UK", but we are obligated to freely educate you. It is however not compulsory that you learn though, and instead insult to hide your lack of knowledge.

I've added the opening post below because this is the sort of thread some sort create and then delete because it embarrasses you.

Hmmm
Whether it's true or not about being the most divorce, but their women has the highest ideology of feminism/ hating men them full facebook and Twitter these days.

In your haste to defend you are quoting me with someone else's contribution. I never insulted you before but now it's obvious You're a ph000l and lack simple understanding. I said what I said and I know what I know. You can eat 5h1t too I really don't care

The Money na wata crew only attract leeches, not lovers!

Let’s be realistic, a lot of these marriages actually stand the test of time. It’s simple logic: a woman will always stay where she finds security and enjoyment. I’ve seen plenty of young ladies settle down with them simply because of the provision.

I even heard when a lady frankly told her people, "If not for this man’s wealth and my kids, why would I be married to someone my father’s age?" The marriage works because it fits a traditional structure: the Igbo man plays the provider, and the woman becomes 'Obiageli'—she came to enjoy. She doesn't have to face the stress of the labour market, poor salaries, or the Lagos rush. She just manages the home and enjoys the soft life.

On the men’s side, you have to look at their background. Many of them go into the apprenticeship system immediately after secondary school (or even drop out) to serve a master. By the time they settle and start making money, they’ve skipped the phase of learning modern dating "game."

To them, money answers all things. Why stress yourself wooing a girl with English when you can just flash cash and she follows you? They grow up believing that providing money equals showing love. And since the girls stick around for the cash, the men never realize they lack social skills. It’s a cycle, but for many, it works.

Must have pained you much to be lumped together with the op who reasons like you do, but I'm certain you'd grow out of it one day kid.

A very stupid post devoid of any back up or proof. Just mere assumptions.



Every d.ick and Harry must mention igbo in this country...

Imagine the rubbish...

Very nice point here.
budaatum you claimed I don't have proof for my post yet you went to chatGPT and brought what you considered as proof meanwhile chatGPT full the results above from posts like mine. Did AI present records from Nigerian registry to back up their claim?

Be sincere to yourself judging from what we see from the internet space did you agree to my point or not ?

Well drafted Sir but the fact remain that most of these ladies are not emotionally connected to their husbands. Ever wonder why an odogwu who provides heaven and earth for the wife will irritate the wife while the same wife will be deeply emotionally connected to one struggling young man out there?

The marriage used to last taste of time like you said back in the days but no longer today. What they do is get married to these set of men and after few months or years, they'll come up with reason to quit the marriage (mostly domestic violence and abuse) and that's after they've used the man's wealth to secure their future.

I have no choice but to agree with every single word you wrote. Honestly, you've described not just the struggles of modern Igbo marriages, but the reality of modern marriages everywhere—especially those where the foundation is strictly money. And yes, you're spot on, it definitely seems more common in the Igbo culture.

I thought we all agreed money is what all women want, what changed?

No, chatGPT is not proof of anything. It is simply preliminary presentation of an alternative view that should be considered, and it's definitely way more than "a video where a Nigerian lady who reside in the UK".

Fact is, you have no evidence for your claim, and if you truly do intend to go study in India, you should learn what evidence is instead of posting anecdotes you wish to believe for reasons you know best. You'd be wasting your money if you don't.

The summary is because igbo men are simps. This isn't meant to be an insult honestly.

No tribe can honestly be ranked highest or lowest. The differences people notice are mostly about location, lifestyle, and social systems, not ethnicity.

BlaqJagz:
Hmmm
Whether it's true or not about being the most divorce, but their women has the highest ideology of feminism/ hating men them full facebook and Twitter these days.

And are you blaming the igbo women?

It's the igbo culture that made it so. The igbo culture is so cruel, crude and barbaric towards woman. The igbo culture is so anti women and it seems like the men belittle and see their women next to nothing to an accuired property.

It's is the igbo culture that promotes hatred for women that made plenty igbo women to be feminist when they get woke and education.

How can a man die, and you take all his properties all in the name that he doesn't have any male child.

If GOD himself couldn't satisfy a woman. Do you think men can ? No. If you like give them all the attention and care. Give them heaven and earth . A woman can never be satisfy.

But sha, whenever they’re with Yoruba guys, most of dem dey behave well. I’m speaking from experience..

This is not true. South west and south south are the worst if the packs. Yes igbo men might influence women with money but when it comes to divorce they have the lowest rate. But you see south west and south south women hallelujah just pray you marry well. Check online most feminist are yoruba, those that talk rubbish and misbehave most are yoruba cos they believed they liberal and woke and the painful thing is igbo women are beginning to follow the trends and coung the woke and liberal style of south West and south south women.

Isn't life so wonderful and full of surprises? You couldn't get a C in statistics at school but here you are getting A1 in Statistics surrounding igbo marriages and divorces.

How about You try applying this same energy in running statistics on your personal life and sorting yourself out.

You're right bro

When an inexperienced person makes a post, it is always easier to spot.

Igbos actually have the strongest marriages that stand the test of time because such marriages were not just based on mere emotions but on something stronger than emotional feelings! Emotional feelings don't sustain marriages because they're ephemeral and fleeting!

On the other hand, strong family ties, great character and wealth actually sustain marriages as they play longer-lasting roles than mere feelings!

Tonto Dike and Churchill were in love and even went as far as locking their so called love at a certain place far away from Nigeria. Tuface and Annie were also in "love" but we all know how their so called love ended. These are just examples to let you know that what the youths of this generation refer to as "love" doesn't sustain marriages!

The fact that some frustrated feminists gang up against marriages so they can get many young women into having similar fate as them doesn't make it right for you to smear a whole tribe because of the actions of a few ladies.

You're right but the truth is that the Igbos hates the truth about them but are always quick to stereotype and insult other tribes freely
