That act must be stopped. It's seems Igbo matters are the major thing keeping some people happy in Nigeria society. No day passes without Igbo related posts. That's why Nigeria won't let south easterners break away. Nobody will talk about you if you are nobody.

Na only bread winner wife dey suffer this. Ladies shine ya eye

BuT wE doN’t neEd feMinISm. Lol

That's why one should b careful where they wanna marry into. Love no join this one o.

Talk about hate, prejudice and every form of discrimination, leave it for the Igbo race.

There's not a single place in the whole north that practice such evil. Will subjecting the woman to all this humiliation bring their dead son back? No!

The only time a widow suffers in a northern Christian marriage is if she gives birth to only female children. Even in that case, they have to wait for all the girls to get married and leave before they can try anything. Even at that, there are some exceptions, depending on the family.

Benue state are an exception to this cos they are another set of barbarians. Why? Because they are closer to the South East than they are to the north.

Tiv/Idoma have some of the most backward cultures you can find anywhere.

I was 26 when my dad passed. My elder bro was 28. Immediately my dad's siblings wanted to bundle my mum to the village. We almost beat them up... Na God save them from our hands.
When we went to the village for the burial, they had arranged all sort of wickedness for my mum and mobilized the village youths to fight us the children if we resisted.
They were more than us but we held our ground o. Some of us were fighting while some of our friends protected my mum and others guarded the casket.
After hours of fighting, the elders summoned both parties. To cut the story short, the eldest man was the only one who spoke in our favor and his opinion is the only one that counts. We buried my dad without any rites. Even the food and drinks went back with us as the defeated crowd refused to come near us.
The spiritual battles that followed was horrendous but we overcame
Today we are outcast in the family, even my cousin got wedded a couple of weeks ago, I only saw the pics on Facebook.
But no one cares, we survived, my mum is Hale and hearty and we defeated the fucking tradition

I think the spiritual battles is why most people just accept the useless tradition...
But either way, there must be battle.
If you accept such degrading stuff, your mental health will never recover

Very good!

If they face more resistance like yours im sure with time they will get tired and stop subjecting widows and their children to this humiliating practice.

Widows are treated with compassion all over the world. I dont know why its different for Ibo.

This barbarism must stop. Thank you for sharing.

Are you saying they use spiritual force to destroy the mother?

Do they care at all about the children left behind by their deceased son? Do they realize if they kill the woman her children becomes homeless and orphans?

MetaPhysical:
obdk, there is something in that article i find wrong. The reporter kept saying this is how women are treated in Southern Nigeria, instead of saying women are dehumanized and humiliated in Eastern Nigeria. Political correctness gone wrong!

call village meeting and instruct your elders to use Yoruba model of equality and respect for its women.

Lol yoruba demon and respect in d same line ooo

If a woman with four kids loose husband in Yorubaland even if the husband no get house sef family go rally round and find them good shelter and set her up. They will visit and check and see how she is doing. Collect tithes in the family and donate to her for upkeep.

Woman with four kids loose her husband in Iboland she don jam wahala. If husband no get house she will be accused of witchery and draining the husband resource. If he get house they will kick her and her children out of it. Then she must drink the deadbody water to prove she didnt kill him.

Kaaii!! Hey mods, i fit change the title of this thread? I need to read the entire thing first so i fit know what new label to use. Ibo no go get rest today. See as they treat beautiful pleasurable women, mothers....like dog. Kaai!!!

Yes ooo they. Will rally agbo and ogogoro joints.

More than half of yorubas are born bastards so start from thr...

This is the tribe that claim he it is chosen by God but we all know this can only be from the tribe chosen by the devil.

What do you e, pect when a cursed tribe segregated a part of it own flesh n blood n tagged them OSU to be hated ?!

I spite on such a pathetic tribe.

they don't care especially if the children are young and there is some form of property attached

Interestingly,

It is the women who should fight for younger widows that are carrying out this act.

They can't blame this one on men, unfortunately...

But of course, I still trust some toddlers to still say it's men who made the tradition and forced women to treat other women like lesser humans.

No responsibility for anything.

Some part of Yoruba are so useless o, don't pray to have encounter with them from experience have seen where the man's family killed their son and accused the wife, to cut the whole story short God later vindicated the woman

Oh ok! Igbo bashing thread. See pot calling kettle black.

I can imagine what my dad saw when he went for his friend's burial in this same state.

No wonder he called all his daughters afterwards and warned us not to marry from that state.

We are talking of coronavirus you are talking of malaria.

Ibo culture, not Iboman. You dey comapre Ibo culture with Yorubaman.

Where in Yoruba culture does it say kill your son and blame his wife?

Amukunmeko!!

These things are not always fixed, and my home is am exception.

It all depends on the family you marry into
which is why it's always good for brothers to be United with thier families even in adulthood and have very good bond.

I lost my Dad years now, and yes I was expecting this situation of property tussel from his brothers at the time but I didn't receive any problems.

Infact they took my mom as thier own wife and made sure the loss of her hubby wasn't painful for her, i.e they handle her as if she were an egg.

Till date, I haven't heard any meeting or talk that says we want to take over this or that property. They grew up doing this together in Love and it stuck with their families.

The wife too also has a role to play in ensuring the brothers bond don't break even though she is now married to their siblings.

Ladies before you marry, better investigate the homes you are entering.


A United Christian family is what everyone should be looking out for.

Yet some deaddd braineeddd misogynists will ask questions/commments such as ''how are women oppressed?'' Which laws/cultures oppress women? They maintain that bad practices had been stopped long ago, stupidd assedd deceitful SOGs. Sad enough, you see some females who join in expressing such stupidityyyy, their kinds definitely get too blind to read threads like this. You see them in other threads asking stupidd questions and questioning feminism and equal rights. Foolish females who try to impress men and seek men's validation, their kinds are the type who hold down a female child for circumcision, who use blades to shave her fellow woman's hair, who stands and watches her follow woman drink the water used in washing her husband's corpse, etc, in this 21st century. From the picture above, it is saddening that same women is a tool used by men/society/cultures to oppress women.

I read in this article that women who have experienced such humiliation are being asked to come forward and join in a counter-force to do away with the barbarism. This is a very good idea.

However, some also narrated their own experience here and said after his mother defied her in-laws they started fighting her spiritually to get what they could not get physically.

So its going to be a battle. Im surprised Ibo has women who feature prominently at international level and yet they distance from this problem. Im surprised at Chimamanda. Even Linda Ikeji....she is steady trying to be a kardashian but her fellow women back home are being treated like dog. Look at Ezekwesili fighting for BBOG but young girls in Iboland will marry and one day be subjected to this act of slavery. Even slaves will not be given to drink waste water from her master's cadaver body wash.

But look at the article....look at the name of the reporter....a Yoruba woman fighting to bring this out for condemnation, for intervention and for empathy for the victims of this barbarism.

Twueh!! I spit on this barbarism!

Any gaddem inlaw caught subjecting a grieving wife and mother to such dirty, degaradation should be shipped off to Sambisa.

Shame on Chimamanda and Linda Ikeji and Ezekwesili, they have power of media and are using it wrongly.

My heart and love goes to all women that have had to endure such cave age cultural barbarism.
