AmazonTopaz: How does your problem concern the public or concern the person you're (quoting)narrating your problem to. Because this enemy you're narrating your problem to,,, will still use it against you. tomorrow, on this tribalistic forum, filled with hates. I doubt if you're even igbo, because no smart Igbo lady that can make this comment in a national public forum. |

Supreme Court should channel it energy in giving women all over the country (Nigeria) the right to one man, one woman in family. This one is more important than any other 1 Like |

NO IGBO FAMILY WILL GIVE INHERITANCE TO THEIR DAUGHTER, SHE IS MEANT TO FIND A HUSBAND AND NOT STAY AND MARRY HER FATHER FOR INHERITANCE, WHICH BELONGS TO HER MOTHER. IF THEIR MOTHER PASS, IT GOES TO THE SONS OF THE LAND. I AM TALKING ABOUT ANCESTRAL LAND. HOWEVER, MONEY AND OTHER STUFF, SHE CAN INHERIT. 1 Like |

rabzy: Now let's reason this together, if the first son is the last born then he takes over the house even if that's the only house. If the first son is the first born and he is not rich enough to do the burial alone he loses out. This is not different from the marginalisation of women in the East, infact Edo marginalised a poor first son. I know its culture and it has caused a lot issues between families. |

tot:One of my grand aunties had a will before she died. Her grown up son's refused to to follow the will because their mother shared property to allbher children both make and female. Note. Is was her property not thelat her husband left it for her. She worked for it herself. It took 10yrs to settle the matter in court. People were staying free in the houses for all the 10yrs. These men saying women will to have a share in their mother's property didn't contribute to their mother's life or buriel. And they were not hungry men o. They had better property than what their mother left. The girls were the ones who took care of the woman. They finally agreed as the women too refused to give up their own share. Some people will still not accept their father's will if they feel it doesn't favour them. If I have kids and they misbehave, I don't mind giving all my property to the criminal Federal government. Let them go and work for their own. 6 Likes 1 Share |

THE AVERAGE IGBO MAN RELATIONSHIP WITH HIS DAUGHTER HAVE A CLEAR DIVIDE LINE. DAUGHTERS ARE NEVER MISTAKEN FOR WIVES. I WILL PAY YOUR SCHOOL FEES, GIVE YOU POCKET MONEY, FEED, HOUSE AND CLOTH YOU UNTIL U FIND THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE. MY PROPERTIES ARE FOR YOUR MOTHER AND MY WIFE. WITH YOU HAPPILY MARRIED, WEN MY WIFE PASS, THEY GO TO MY SON, WITH THE EXEMPTION THAT I SPECIFICALLY GIFTED YOU MAYBE A HOUSE OR A CAR OR MONEY IN MY WILL. 1 Like |

FrLukas: Maybe your experience is limited to what happens in your immediate surroundings. Even the Yorubas experience this practice of women getting relegated by their male folk. That some Yoruba communities worship goddesses does not erase the fact that women do not have inheritances in their father's houses. Some men do not want their daughters getting cheated by their sons when they are no longer there. They share their properties and ensure that everyone holds on to his/her own entitlement. A case comes to mind. A man died and left a storey building at Isale Eko and 8 acres of land along Ibadan expressway. He left two daughters and one son. The son claimed the whole properties asserting that his two sisters had no portion in the inheritance left by their father. The sisters took him up and were awarded two acres of lands each in full and final settlement. Can you disagree also about our people in the north? Can you honestly say that women have rights? If some don't practice it, then their women only were liberated from that evil behaviour. 1 Like |
