Ab0bi:
Truth be told, the Judiciary system can't abolish a long practiced tradition.

It's a futile battle.Name a tribe without a repugnant tradition and I will take you serious.

Any woman that is cheated of her inheritance now just mean she is ignorant of her right. Any repugnant tradition can be set aside if challenged. And the pronouncement of court becomes law.
So you agree the tradition is repugnant and yet want to retain it? Lol!!!

Ab0bi:
It's futile....Igbos won't implement it.

Is it igbos that implement laws or govt?

Y SHOULD MY DAUGHTER INHERIT ME, NA ME GO GIVE AM BELLE?


IS SHE GOING TO REMAIN IN MY HOUSE.



WAT IS NORMAL TO YORUBA IS AN ABOMINATION TO IGBO.


ONE MAN FOOD IS ANOTHER MAN POISON.


IF YORUBA CULTURE IS SO GREAT, Y ARE DEY SHOVING THEIR ILLS DOWN OUR THROAT BY FORCE.


PEOPLE USUALLY DO NOT GIVE AWAY ANYTHING GOOD, IT IS THE BAD ONES THEY WANT TO SHARE.

This one is just an idiot. In Yoruba land, there are Regents who are female. You are a stark illiterate and a myopic fellow who is not exposed.

We are not talking about Regents who are even lesser than local councillors, we are talking of the highest royal stools in yorubaland Ooni, Alaafin, Awujale and Alake, etc. Why are yorubas discriminating against their females from attaining those revered traditional positions.

yoruba jibiti and their half-baked arguments as always.

while serving in Ohaji/Egbema in Imo state then, there were alot of taboos exclusively for the females. Amongst them is that female Shouldn't break the cola nut and many more. Igbo's females are very industrious to the extent of riding bicycle to and from the farm heavily loaded even with children. In this wise, while must they be cut off from inheriting their legal and biological father. Igbo's tradition is barabaric with respect to this seclusion. I'm a man who vehemently repudiate feminism, meanwhile, truth be told; woman must have due share in their father's estates not only in Igbo land but everywhere in the world.

fergie001:

To inherit means that the man died without writing a will. So, when sharing his properties whether the girl child is expected to inherit something.

To will means that before the man died, he put it in writing that this girl child should get A B C.

In most parts of Igbo-land, specifically in my part......Without a will..the girl-child benefits nothing, unless there is plenty to go round.

Infact, in my part..the first son automatically takes over his father's house. If their lands are sold, he takes lion share.

Whatever is given to the girl-child, is a gift and not inheritance.

That is the crux of the matter!! So if there’s plenty to go round, why wouldn’t the women inherit? This still boils down to how rich the man was and the number of properties he left behind

All it is going to do is promote will writing service for charge and bail lawyers. Igbo men with substance will now learn to write their will before they before they kpeme.

Culture should be innovative, adaptive and fair. There is nothing bad in female children getting shares of their parents estates, married or not. In fact, in some part of Igboland, only the first son gets everything.

Dedetwo:


The so-called Supreme court of Nigeria proved to me that everything which comes out of the shithole in Nigeria is idiotic. No court of any nation on earth will want to adjudicate the vices in culture and tradition of the people unless when human life is paramount. The vices in the culture and tradition of people are usually handled by the people with increase level of development. No woman in Igbo land would be allowed to carry her father's house to her husband's home.

Like I said, that yoruba man's judgement remains an academic venture, let the yoruba men who have married Igbo daughters go and start dragging their father-in-law's properties, let's see how it pans out. Let them test the useless judgment in practice and stop making noise.

i told them this wont work in igbo land,an igbo girl wont be that stupid to come back from her husbands house and start fighting with her brothers over properties,every rich igbo man settles her daughter when she get married with house cars and many other thing,or guys think that young shall grow did not give her daughter house after her marriage to ebuka?igbo culture is different so they should leave it for us,will our spereme court judges go to india and stop their female from paying dowry to men?in southern sudan juba to marry woman there you need like hundred cows

Aren't you guys tired of this crap?

How many times will this make front page?

The decision is FINAL

Female kids should have access to inheritance
Just like their brothers (which btw is common sense)

I don't know why this is causing ripples

It's a foregone issue
Face other things

Minjim:

Is it igbos that implement laws or govt?

The legislative....how many women have the guts to take their family members to court and risk being disown!?

It can be implemented but it won't be EXECUTED BY THE IGBO'S!!

It's a FUTILE effort!

Beremx:

Exactly, but change the "inherit" to "gift".

You know it is difficult for the girl-child to be given whilst the man is dead. Unless he wrote a will for that or he informed someone before his death.

So the advisable thing, the man should at least let them know before he "goes home."

..there should be a law that states that if alafin of oyo's eldest offspring is a female she should inherit her father's throne cos she is the eldest likewise the emir of sokoto.. I am disappointed in the kind of legal system we run in this country why not chanell same energy towards amending our constitution and reducing the outrageous salary and bonuses being carted away by our senators, governors, house of representatives etc... the issue of gender equality should apply in all aspects of our lives just like the british ..there is this igbo adage that says 'when another person's corpse is being carried it looks like a log of firewood '

Well it's TRUE

It's the same principle that the appeal court will use to kill that boys case in Kano

OUR DAUGHTERS ULTIMATELY END UP IN ANOTHER FAMILY AND THEIR AFTER ASSIMILATED.


SHE IS MEANT TO BE GIVEN AWAY AS ORDAINED BY GOD.



WE WONT KEEP HER OR GIVE HER INHERITENCE THAT IS MEANT FOR THOSE THAT STAY BEHIND.


WE WILL CELEBRATE HER AND GIVE HER GIFTS.



THIS IS THE IGBO WAY, NOBODY SHOULD INTERFERE WITH OUR TRADITION, NOT EVEN THE SUPREME COURT.

Can a woman own properties, Investments and other assets through her own efforts and labour?

Can the daughters of this woman inherit her investments, properties and others

LaboPolitics:


yoruba were rejoicing because they want a leeway to steal Igbo men properties by marrying Igbo daughters and insulting Igbo customs, a custom that even settles Igbo daughters with properties upon marriage. Kolewerk!

Let the same yoruba SC judge Bode Rhodes-Vivour also make a judgment that women in yorubaland have the right to be Oba of Lagos, Ooni of Ife and Alaafin of Oyo.

If he won't do it, I'm sure an Igbo judge or Hausa judge will be glad to do so, since both men and women are now culturally equal in law.

Didnt your Ibo daughter take the case to court in the first place?Yoruba women can challenge to be Alaafin or Ooni in a court of law,if they please.

There was once a female Alaafin and Ooni of Ife in the past.Alaafin oronpoto and Queen Luwo of Ife.Google is your friend.Islam and Christianity bans women from becoming what they were in the traditional religion.i.e head of a kingdom etc.

PearlStreet:
Igbo culture is not superior to the Supreme Court. If you write a will and disinherit your female children, they would take it to court and the court will appoint Executors to share your property since you want to be stupid.

yoruba big-mouthed utopianist. A written will remains sacrosanct.You remind me of one idiotic yoruba woman who married an Igbo lawyer, made the man a vegetable and engineered him to sell his lagos properties and hand the money to her.

The yoruba woman after achieving her aim, brought buyers to sell off the remaining properties in Orlu, Owerri and Onitsha. She ran for dear life when the relatives came out to confront her.

She is a lawyer, why didn't she go to court to speak the long English you are speaking here?

The man is currently in mentally sick and yoruba woman took advantage of that to milk him dry and abandoned him with his relatives. Even the Supreme courts can't help her in this case.

Thieves!

xjiggy:
It is total wickedness for a girl child to be denied an inheritance and yet when she sends money and goodies back home, they accept. For her to get married, they give the would be husband a list longer that the Nigerian constitution, placing so much demands as if the girl is a piece of property to be traded off. The fact that she's married doesn't even guarantee her anything because I've seen igbo women driven from their matrimonial homes upon the death of their husbands and the property confiscated by the man's family. The life of an igbo girl child is one of perpetual slavery. Forget the ones you see smiling in public and well taken care of. They are just trophy wives. The husbands do it to boost their Egos. You'll see an illiterate spare parts dealer boasting in the market about his graduate wife. The stupid sense of entitlement you see among igbo men stems from these wicked traditions. That's why a lawyer would want to argue a judgment based on Gender as a thing of single and married.

Well said

Name one major royal stool in igboland occupied by females. At least yorubas allow their female children occupy the position of regents. Moreover, females have occupied both the Ooni and Alaafin stools before. Google is your friend. Truth be told, igbos see their female children as more of a business item, than real children.

Then don't scream and wail when hausas start killing igbos and other southerners in the north since it's their culture to kill infidels.
