stopthecycle: my problem with this kind of selfish and myopic parents is...if it's a white man that want to marry that lady ,the parents would never object to it ,so that tells me that our problem is "familiarity" |

But am trying to see where bible supports all this.Because we always quote bible.My own bible says Who finds a wife finds a good thing.It didnt say who finds a wife and the family approved.Find your wife.And stand your decision.When i want to get married.I have siblings.uncles saying you cant marry from outside your tribe.But honestly they married same tribe but they have the worst marriage.They aint even qualified to advice. 3 Likes |

tosyne2much:Nothing did. But, just hope you are not the first son, and your parents ain't the 'He must marry from the tribe type.' Because when the family decides not to support your choice, trust me, it takes the grace of God. Man or not. |

The bottom line is not the culture, color in marriage or whatever. Everyone, regardless of their cultural heritage, should ask themselves this question: "Is this person the one God has put in your life to help you get to heaven,no matter what color,tribe you are?. Even though they come from different culture, if the important things in life are the same, they can transcend their differences. The thing that binds inter tribal couples together and what helps them bridge the divides they face,is having the same values and shared vision of life. "Despite having different families of origin, our values are aligned, our priorities all align despite our different upbringing and heritage that's what make it work. 3 Likes |

PAGAN9JA: How is tribe important. As far as I am concerned there's no such thing as tribe. Igbo, Yoruba, black white are nothing but labels. We are all the same. Only bigots and racists and tribalistic think labels are important. If it were inter unions won't be fruitful. We carry what is unimportant and dash it a "matter of life and death" meaning. Before we labelled ourselves Igbo Hausa Yoruba black white we were human. We are Human and our mandate is to be fruitful and multiply. 2 Likes |

stopthecycle:Op there's just one thing that causes this kinda rejection; its simply missing affluence. I'm not just typing this because I feel that's the reason but because I've seen cases where money answered the question. I'm yet to see a well financially capable & successful dude get rejected by parents of the fiancee because of tribe. 1 Like |

Infact from where I stand inter-tribal marriages are becoming innumerable which sometimes make me doubt people are been rejected from getting married to their choice partner because of tribe |

Just take their hearts to the Lord in prayer,and you will be surprise that they will be the one asking when to meet with their in-laws to-be,I experienced same thing,as a Yoruba lady my parent has warned us not to bring another tribe home.Flashback to my previous relationship with Yoruba guys,none of it work out.There was this cool and God fearing guy that i met but not my tribe, he asked me out and i agreed to date him but scared of commitments.After series of fasting and prayers plus vigils,my parent asked me who i intend marrying and i told them he's an Ebira guy,they kept quiet and said they will pray about it.Before i know it they asked me to bring the guy for interview, on the D-day they called us for almost twenty times asking about our movement, on getting home we met delicious African dishes already prepared as if the president is coming to visit them.Everything went well and they asked him to come with his parent soon.That is little out of what our God can do. |

bigpicture001: I see, Seriously ur post shoulbe 2hat everyone should look up to yo know the real truth. Right from my childhood till now my par3nts n3va taught me to discriminate YORUBAS. Not even for one day day, but coming to . Not juste thats how an average igbo child is brought up. the tribalism u see from some igbos today we learned it from yorubas i can tell u. yorubaland n opened my eyes that they dont like igbos.. Normally igbos are not trained to hate yorubas. Its the other way round. 1 Like |
