Not new. This practice is more than 10 years old in my community. It is a welcome development.

Igbo institutions are really progressive in nature.

If I can be given a legally backed traditional wedding certificate duly accented by the families and elders, I'll be OK

government should recognise all traditional institutions' wedding certificates of all ethnic groups in this country.

Only if... lol cheesy

This isn't a new thing, is it?

Traditional marriage certificate is issued to people who get married traditionally in isoko and urhobo tribes of delta state.

And for those of you saying government should recognize it, the Nigerian constitution recognize two type of marriages already

Customary : consisting of traditional, Islam and church marriage.

Statutory :registry marriage.

nice one, time to put an end to so called white wedding. after your traditional marriage, you can choose to go to church for Thanksgiving and blessings. it should be adopted all through the country and the law should recognize the certificate

It's a welcome development. After all, the wedding recorded in the Bible that Jesus turned water into wine was a traditional marriage.

Even if you present a bottle of Fanta to the woman's family and they gladly accept it and give you their daughter, you have officially married a wife .

Court and white wedding na oyibo scam.

Does marriage certificate bind marriage together for life? People are after marriage certificate but cannot leave together as a couple nowadays. I believe what is written there matter since marriage certificate everywhere is paper. Try manage your home and don't allow certificate manage it for you.

hahahaha...

traditional institutions are now upgrading their scheme.

But honestly, our traditions need to be legally recognized unlike those scam(white and court weddings) oyibo brought to us

To me traditional wedding is the real deal
Traditional marriage in Nigeria is actually recognized by the law, issues concerning it are discussed in customary courts.
Re: Traditional Marriage Certificate Issued To New Couple (Photo) by Angy55(f):
It's not new OP
Marry a lady from my place, you would be given a marriage certificate by the King. That validates the marriage. If you like do church wedding or registry that's your choice.

It has been in existence in my place many years ago before I was born. Reason I don't really fancy church and registry wedding. Both couples want divorce? Take it the king's court.

Certificate and traditional marriage is a pure idiocy. This is like the so-called chieftaincy title in traditional setup.
