just imagine.....family members fighting dirty over property they will still leave behind after death.

Why would brothers and sisters be fighting over property they never worked for?
The Sister bought the land with her own money!

I am an anti-feminist to the core but I no support this one. The sister should just send Amadioha to finish the guy by remote. What sort of greed is that? angry angry

Gosh Smh the guy live in uk and still think like this one can't believe what I've just read
Re: Brother Battles Married Sister Over Landed Property Citing Igbo Tradition by linearity:
In 2014, the Nigeria Supreme Court invalidated this Igbo custom and rule that, females can inherit their parents property.

http://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/04/inheritance-supreme-court-voids-discrimination-females-igboland/

This case does not even stand to test of the above Supreme Court case...in the court case, the court said males and females have equal rights to inherit their parents properties, in this instance the property belongs to the lady and does not even fall under the old Igbo custom, I think greed on the part of the brother is at play here and has nothing to do with custom or culture.

What next? Asking her to empty her bank account and give it all to the family on the eve of her wedding or hand over her car(s) as she is about to say 'I do'?

Though I believe this is a fictional made up story just to farther response and internet traffic.
Re: Brother Battles Married Sister Over Landed Property Citing Igbo Tradition by Nobody: 7:21pm On Mar 03, 2017
No problemo! Gift should just sell the land and pocket the money, meaning she has not inherited any land from her father simples!, but all this crap archaic traditions can be mysogynistic some times.
Re: Brother Battles Married Sister Over Landed Property Citing Igbo Tradition by ehikwe22: 7:22pm On Mar 03, 2017
Tufia!!! Igbos and disgraceful cultures and traditions. From chasing widows out of their husbands house to this.

Common man used culture to cheat them self but the rich used the loop of law to cheat and loot the masses.... Nigeria will be great

Lie! Am from Eziagu as well, the brother is just greedy and jealous. Gift should allow God to fight for her and all these old men in village that use to talk based on where drinks is coming from, karma will soon visit all of you.
All these hings happening now is enough conviction that, the kingdom of God is at hand

The context of my question reflected that it was not inherited and there is no basis for the brother to contest with her. Am Igbo and whatever my spinster sister invests her money in, l have no right to ownership unless where she clearly states.

THIS IS MEANT FOR THE AFONJA THAT ALWAYS SEEMS TO GET LOST AND END UP ON IGBO MATTER.
Is dat all u can say wit ur big flat head. Y dnt u tackle d topic? Oh, u wil do d same.
Re: Brother Battles Married Sister Over Landed Property Citing Igbo Tradition by NoToPile: 7:33pm On Mar 03, 2017
Orishirishi

Someone cannot buy property with her own money and live in peace again?

If it was family land I may understand the cultural aspect but land bought with personal money Haba!

This brother shd fear God naa.

This is why sometimes people don't tell family when they acquire property.
Re: Brother Battles Married Sister Over Landed Property Citing Igbo Tradition by hammerF: 7:34pm On Mar 03, 2017
Now let me add my own two cent.


No Igbo Culture gives anybody right to claim property that another person bought with their own money, with the exception of ancestral land.


If ur a woman, u are better off going out to buy land elsewhere and not the ancestral land.


My guess here is that she is claiming to have bought ancestral land. That is an abomination.


Her brother is well within his rights to confiscate it. He is well within his right not to ever release the land to her.


Igbo expect their daughter to get married and inherit their husband property and remove eye from their ancestral property in their father place.


The father will give her a share when she is going to her husband house and that is it but never land.

Nigeria is a Zoo. Our Igbo culture is much better than ur yoruba culture.

We dont have babaloja and mamaloja that go to market to extort money from people.

Our mothers dont have to foot the bill of her own wedding, paying groom price.

The ancestral land i get from my ancestors will still belong to me and any igbo girl that i marry and my sisters will get their one from their husband.

It is an arrangement and must be respected and followed.

Enough of all this we are modern business, our ancestors were wiser.

We are modern these girls will say but they are over 40 no husband whereas if we went with our cultures they would all be married.
Re: Brother Battles Married Sister Over Landed Property Citing Igbo Tradition by Diplomaticbeing(m):
Greed is evil. As far as I'm concerned culture isn't the way the dead agreed unanimously to do their things while they were alive instead its how the living individually and in some instances majority unaniously chooses to do their things conscientiously. Absence of conscientiousness in any action at any given time is evil.

The man in question was only being petty. He's greedy. By the way, isn't it the same Igboland someone like me come from that they are talking - we don't practice oppression in my family. My beloved sisters (even as they are married) remains bona fide members of our family, thus they are entitled to whatever estate in place, more so the ones they acquired by themselves through their sweats.

To hell with all greedy/selfish/opportunistic proponents and practitioners.
Re: Brother Battles Married Sister Over Landed Property Citing Igbo Tradition by Nobody: 7:40pm On Mar 03, 2017
So some people just have this inborn madness in them that will make them just wake up one morning and takeover land that doesnt belong to them. these stories are just pathetic, useless security agencies too are colluding with the mad brother. what the fvck, anyways its the ipod peoples problem.
Re: Brother Battles Married Sister Over Landed Property Citing Igbo Tradition by ipobbigot7: 7:41pm On Mar 03, 2017
Igbo kwuenu!

With all these barbaric traditions among these fake Jews from the red soil region, it is obvious that they will destroy themselves within years if they ever get their biafra nation.

Weird news, if it's not coming from Kenya, Zimbabwe, Zambia or Uganda, it's definitely coming from the South yeeaast.
Re: Brother Battles Married Sister Over Landed Property Citing Igbo Tradition by MayorMgbedike(m): 7:42pm On Mar 03, 2017
If she bought the land herself when she's single, let's say she used that to save money. Now she can resale that parcel of land to take back her money.

Case closed.
