This judgement will definitely give room to more divorce cases since the lady knows that she still has an inheritance in her father's house so she can leave her matrimonial home anytime she wants just like people around the Southwest does

In my community, we are just and learned. I don't know the cave you come from but don't equate the backwardness of your people to others.

BabaRamota1980:
They dont value their girls at all, but like you said they will jump on Hausa case and demonize them on girl child abuse.

arinze3131:
u people will just b saying rubbish here against Igbos. u reverence ur women yet they prefer 2 marry Igbo guys. we both know Igbo men treat their women way better dan yorubas and hausas.

stchinedu:
The greed in igboland is out of this world.

The custom has been existing based on greed and 'long throat'

A man dies, the wife and mother of his children is subjected to all manner of ill treatment.

Her hair is shaved, she is confined to a room for almost a year and treated as if she was the one that killed the man.

Worst still, if she does not have a male child or if she did not bear children for him... You will begin to see hungry looking uncles talking about 'sharing' the deceased properties.

Its a barbaric and repugnant custom and i am glad the Apex court has cone to the rescue.

AmazonTopaz:
Very much igbo.

That shiloh talk is CRAP and does not affect or concern me go and feed that rubbish talk to someone else interested in hearing it

herich:
And they practice discrimination,
Is that why you're feeling so pained?

fraymite:
So igbó has this kind of discrimination and abuse of rights, and they are quick to abuse Muslims when living according to Islamic doctrine. Most of them are Christians and Christianity doesn't preach against non inheritance of female child, please correct me if I'm wrong.

In Islam, female child is to collect half of inheritance of Male child. She will inherit the other half at her husband's house. Then male child has no where to inherit aside from her parents. You can see that Islam doesn't undermine your right as a woman, you were strategically placed equally with men in many areas. You only need to learn your religion on every matter instead of allowing non Muslims to cast hatred into your heart.

Make I book this place for righteousness89.


I know say Afonjas go come cry for this thread. While Ndigbo has the highest number of women representatives in NASS, no other ethnic tribe can boast of that. We are in every way better than Afonja when it comes to women empowerment. You can check the stats.

osamz007:
Righteousness89 are this not signs of the end time

Sholaco:
so terrible! This are the same tribe crying for been marginalized. Do not do to others what you do not want others to do to u

Beverlyjean:
How do Americans treat their women.... hypocrisy written all over u

AmazonTopaz:
Your community is backwards if it does not recognise the rights of women as human beings who deserve the sane respect and treatment accorded to men.
You cannot be just and learned if you are opposed to the supreme court judgment

Mr Nwankwo, I'm not going to insult the Igbo tribe because of a mentally deficient and vacuous minded soul like you.


You think spelling the word Yoruba as yarriba means anything? I it can only mean something to people like you who are yet to develop a useable medulla oblongata.


The only people I pity are the Igbo women who have to put up with chauvinist cretins like you who see the women as commodity to be bartered at weddings.


The Igbo culture treats it's women abysmally.


Non inheritance by females is despicable.


The treatment of widows is appalling.


Selling of your daughter to a man because you managed to send her to higher institution is a cavalier attitude.


No wonder the average Igbo lady would rather marry a Yoruba man. I don't blame them though.


You can dance zanku on my mentions all you like, I won't be responding to your juvenile rants after this.

Long overdue! I argued it with one guy in March, I told him if any female takes her family to the court that she will win, the guy blindly argued and rejected my opinion vehemently, saying nobody can try it in East. That, its their culture. I told him. Can ur culture and custom supersede Nigeria constitution?

herich:
Wasting your whole day on this thread,,, as if you really care for Igbos,, will not still change the culture. Any Igbo man can will his property to his children(both male female) you outcasts are only killing yourself on Igbo matter.

csamii:
Who cares about Supreme Court judgement and what good has it ever done for the igbos?!

People like you don't even understand the customs and traditions. I'm sure you've lived all your years in outside the east.

AmazonTopaz:
Not me it is the culture itself that gives enlightened and educated people the audacity to insult and make fun of it.
Very shameful and sad that in 2020 many of them.still choose to be backward.

MrColdsweat:
You yarribastards have killed the thread with your Igbo hate.

The reason why this is so, is because by getting married, a woman shares her husbands inheritance.

If a woman is allowed to have inheritance, she will take inheritance from her father, and still share her husband's inheritance.

Advocate500:
what is ur argument ,is sharia law not superced Nigerian grand norm?

true2god:
A supreme court headed by an Fulani man whose intent is to reform Igbo tradition and introduce us to civil civilization. I am an advocate of gender equality and I equally in support of the use of Nigerian institution to reform an old and barbaric Igbo culture. This law will continue to fly against bad and evil culture in Igboland, thank you justice Tanko.

UnimkeAk:
What will u say about anambra north...
I'm Igbo by the way

AmazonTopaz:
I am learned and intelligent enough to know that cultures change and traditions are not written in stone they are always subject to changes with the times because they are laws made by men.There is nothing special or important to understand about cultures
I have lived in the SE.
Also the supreme court is the law of the land that has more power than your community culture and tradition.
