Lol no, I told my mum and she said she’s going to help me tell my dad. Inshallah it’ll all be fine!

It’s been sorted alxamdulilah thank you all

I don’t know about Nigerian culture but for Somalis it’s hard to marry out. My dad makes jokes about it I think he might stop us from being together and I respect my dad so

Thank you all for your help

We are both in the UK lol!

My parents are quite bright I suppose but they grew up in Somalia when there weren’t any foreigners (apart from Italians and Arabs) so I don’t know.

Also, I still haven’t decided what to do! I remember when I tried to break it off last time I didn’t have the courage and he was very convincing.

I told him I’m not confident about my parents accepting him and maybe we should talk.



I feel so baddd; he’s a good person.

Marrying out is rare! I feel like giving up everytime I think about it.

This sounds awful! There’s no way to appeal? Resit?

Is this a secondary school exam? Or college? Uni?

I don’t know actually, that may offend him.

Would it be weird if I asked him to pretend to be Somali Bantu?

PLEASE HELP ME MY NAIJA FRIENDS; I don’t want to hurt him anymore

I’m not a bad person; I don’t plan to steal my (future) children!

There are no set penalties; we are Muslims. I don’t know how my parents would feel however.

Any advice? Anything??

I’m confused; everyone gets harsh comments from strangers on the internet. Why is this newsworthy?

Hahahahahah funny people, op you shouldn’t seek validation from total strangers! Be happy in your own skin!

She looks like a cartoon
Is she famous in Nigeria?

Hi everybody,

My name is Aisha and I’m Somali but my bf of eight months is from Nigeria. He keeps asking me to let him talk to my family and stuff but I’m terrified. I think I love him but.. I don’t know how I should convince my parents. I met his family many times and I feel very guilty about all this. We are both Muslims btw! Does anybody have any experience of a Somali Nigerian marriage?

Thanks in advance!
