True talk

Milaxx:
Igboman is wise and his decision is solid. They know that when the woman get married, she will enjoy with her husband the inheritance he must have inherited from his father.

This is why the Bible made it clear for you to marry from your tribe.

They're trying so hard to destroy the core secret of the igboman family. This is thesame thing that have successfully destroyed most of the black American families ( feminist )

DUDE NIGERIA HAS NO FUTURE. TO COEXIST WITH PEOPLE OF DIFFERENT CULTURE AND FAITH REQUIRES RESPECT, YORUBAS HAVE NONE.


THEY ARE DECEIVERS. U HAVE CREATED A SITUATION WHERE THOSE GIRLS WILL BE MURDERED OVER PROPERTY.


LEARN TO RESPECT OTHER PEOPLE CULTURE IT IS THEIR FOR A REASON. WOMEN MOVE ON CHANGE NAME, WAT BUSINESS DOES SHE HAVE WITH HER FATHER PROPERTY.


THE CHOICE IS FOR THE FATHER NOT SUPREME COURT. IN IGBOLAND A FATHER RESERVE THE RIGHT TO GIVE HIS DAUGHTER A GIFT NOT INHERITANCE.

TOMORROW A LAZY MAN, THAT SHE WILL FOLLOW, WILL COME TO FIGHT OR KILL U AND HER OVER UR FATHER PROPERTY.

IF UR FATHER WAS ALIVE, WILL HE EVER ACCEPT THAT? I AM A FATHER MYSELF AND I KNOW I WILL NEVER ACCEPT THAT.

NYWAY IGBOS WILL NEVER GIVE TO HER WAT WAS NOT ALLOCATED TO HER PERSONALLY BY HER FATHER.

THE OLD MAN KNOWS TO GIVE HER EVERYTHING THAT BELONGS TO HER AS A WEDDING GIFT.

WHILE SHE IS WITH US SHE IS TREATED EQUALLY BUT PROPERTY GOES TO MUM AND THEN HER SONS.

Several year ago, nairaland beamed with intellectual contents where you could find answers to many/any question, I had hope for Nigeria and my generation of Africans. How did things get this low, imagining your thought process is emotionally upsetting and there are now majority of crass people on this forum. The once revered forum has ended up recruiting less than mediocre folks under its roofs. Is this a societal problem in the larger sphere of life in this country. When I compare the comments I read on today's nairaland and the discussions I watch on Republic of China's CCTV channel and I feel sorry for the black race.

Then she shouldn't cry when it turns bloody. To me if my sister is married to another man & a property is not willed to her, she should just leave in peace for the sake of peace. I wouldn't hesitate to kill or get killed to maintain my father's and brothers linage because he linage is with her husband unless she is some way out of marriage.

If she is not willed she has no right to contest. It is you as a brother that out of your own freewill can help her out with something if the need exists. Traditionally, when a woman is out of marriage and comes back home the first son gives her land where she cultivates to sustain herself through her lifetime and the land reverts back to the family upon her demise.

If u like use all the moniker on earth, u are getting no where, butt out of igbo people affairs. Go and pick on hausa/fulani or better yet focus on your yoruba tribe, u will get no problems.


if u insist on bothering us, we are heading for a bloody conflict. It cost nothing to mind ur business. I am igbo and u are yoruba, it is clearly spelt out and i am not ur brother and neither were we created together.


We all have a date with death and it is destiny but the way Nigeria is pushing us we will fast forward it to now and take u along.

As always, thread has degenerated to insults, here are the facts for people who care to know.
1. Females do not inherit ancestral land in Igbo land as they are expected to inherit from their husbands.
2. Females inherit every other properties belonging to their father, including interstate properties.
3. If for any reason, a daughter quits her marriage and her dowry duly returned, she must be provided a place of abode in her father's compound, a farmland and economic trees if any.

What do you mean? Even if you are not prominent you remain our child. You are never sold but give to marriage, to whom you will find happiness in. If anything is to happen to our daughter, the husband will always answer for it.

These same lesser (temporal beings as someone referred them) are allowed to bring moneys and other properties from their husbands without qualms. BTW, are they not from the same ancestors the men came from. I am not happy to learn this part of Igbo culture, it is less than slavery over which we easily accuse other races.
.
see as niggis just d claim e no d happen for their tribe.
when an Igbo woman marries,it is assumed she now belongs to her husbands people that's why she takes up his surname. It is her husbands property she would claim (land included) and not her fathers landed property. if she happens to be divorced or unmarried, she now has a case.
I would be surprised if other ethnic groups claim otherwise.the way things are going, very soon the woman would keep her surname after marriage. you can't expect the woman to share her fathers unwilled assets in addition to her husbands that one na comparative advantage nah!!! -husbands should begin to go to court to claim their wives family assets after all na "brother in the law" dem be.

Thank you for that insight. Our igbo custom is supreme.

Yoruba people want to talk about culture they dont know. They can never mind their business, it is igbo 24/7.

This is what is meant by the TRIBAL mentality .A people who only lived in hamlets until the white man came and gifted them baby hats. There is no record of any towns in which strangers lived in Igbo land before colonialism(They would have been eaten!) so no surprises . Every thing is UmuAkpu,Umu this and Umu that.
