MrJames007:
So how will this couple make babies

MissOpe:
My bro, I dont even support religion....
So don't think im in support of this, I said it somewhere in my previous reply...
And I'm also not saying society shouldn't have rules, the only rules that should guide the society is "THE HUMANITY RULES".

Dont do to me what you wouldn't like to be done to you ..

Live your life in a way that respects the dignity, freedom, and well being of others while taking responsibility for the consequences of your own actions...

SHIKENA......

Samantha125:
The whole thing just happened quick, my father received some information that there was a certain Pedi traditional ruler that was calling for all Pedi people from across the Limpopo province to come and make land acquisition before his virgin land gets occupied by foreign nationals... So my sister and I saw it as a great investment and went for it... Some people also went and acquired land for their children and grandchildren.

I was sceptical about telling my husband about it because I was worried that he might get all sentimental about it.

MissOpe:
Of course Peller broke the rules, norms expected of him by the society and that's Why he is Peller today....
There's nothing in life without its own share of merits or demerits or better put consequences (good/bad)..
Even if they try to play it safe by embracing your own idea of how things should be done culturally, consequences go still dey.....
By the way, who your culture don help??

Culture that was made by Patriachal men to subdue women, to ensure the women dont have a voice, women have never been protected by these nonsense culture (in my opinion) you keep screaming, if after a while Jarvis feels she can't continue with Peller,she can by all means part ways with him..

Life is not a do or die affair...

MissOpe:
Sincerely, I laughed out loud when I saw this.
Don't worry. Peller's children, grandchildren, and future generations, along with those who believe in Islamic and Christian marriage rites, will watch their elders practise these traditions. By then, they'll likely see them as part of their own culture.
But I have a genuine question for you. Why are you so rigid and fixated on preserving the original culture exactly as it was? It seems you're not open to change or evolution. You appear to believe that our culture should remain exactly as our ancestors practised it.
Our ancestors lived in their own time, under their own realities. We, however, live in a different world with different experiences and challenges. Does honouring our heritage mean we must reject every form of change? What happened to learning, growing, and even unlearning ideas that no longer serve us?
Culture has never been completely static. It has always evolved from one generation to the next.
If Peller and Jarvis freely agreed to do things their own way, how does that negatively affect you or society? Why should their personal choice become a problem for everyone else?

An uncultured person is someone who lacks education, refinement, or good taste, particularly regarding fine arts like literature, music, and painting. They may also display coarse manners or an unfamiliarity with social norms.

MissOpe:
Culture is the way of life of people....
The culture they used here is islamic marriage which is now a part of the way of life of most Muslims regardless of its origin/source.....

Africans frequently perform three types of marriage namely, Customary, Religious, and Civil-to fulfill different cultural, spiritual, and legal requirements. Because no single ceremony satisfies all three domains of African life, couples choose to complete all of them to ensure their union is fully respected by their ancestors, their faith, and the government.

Samantha125:
I once framed two people and got them suspended, till this day, they don't know that I was the mastermind behind everything.

But the biggest secret that I once kept from my husband must be my 2021 land acquisition, I bought myself a piece of land back in my province and kept it from him, we were still dating then... But I eventually did told him about it.

stuffs2002:
You have no idea what you are talking about.

Being a Muslim have absolutely nothing to do with being African, American European etc. Anybody can be a Muslim

Do you know that the country with the largest Muslim population is not even in the middle east

DLSReigns:
One salient aspect of the traditional marriage is when members of the groom family investigate the brides family background before proceeding or backtracking! I love that but unfortunately it exist no more. Now, before the groom's family even know the lady, Belle don show! Kai.

no 18yrs understand any of this chiii up there

The best thing to do about a post I've no interest in is to ridicule it, just as the etiquette of a "public forum" demands, good sir/madam.

Joaks:
Guy, you're taking this personal.
The Op never said anything like the Imam joined them together. He said, Peller took Javis to mosque to be converted to Islam and the Imam prayed for their marriage.
Stop quoting out of context.

Neoteny:
You seriously wrote a 285 word essay on how someone you don't know should conduct their marital affairs?

MissOpe:
You didn't understand my perspective and rebuttal against the previous points you raised...seems like youre trying to digress here...you were talking about Peller neglecting his culture and I made you understand that you must first understand what Culture is ..........Asides Traditional marriage , Islamic and Christian marriage whether its borrowed from the whites or not is now a part of our culture (our way of life), just the same as our forefathers who using the internet, social media and advanced technology wasnt a part of their culture, but that seems to be a part our culture now...

Life's changing, we can't be stucked with old ways of life on certain things while neglecting other aspects...

If you want to stick to culture as you claim then we stick to it 100% without leaving anything out of it

MissOpe:
Before you shout culture, you must first understand what culture is, the way of life of people.....even though i don't support this ,,, traditional marriage,is not only the way of life of people now, islamic and Christian marriage is now a part of our culture, even olodo uprising and social media foolishness is now a part of our culture....

Culture is made for the people, not people for the culture....Culture must bow to the people and not the other way round..... abeg

Watch the video very well before rushing to comment

givedemwotowoto:
We all are. Seun is using the cover of journalism to try to push an agenda from his paymasters.

I know Peter Obi wants to be heard by the people, but he has already said everything he needs to say. At this point, filter and focus on TV stations who have something new to talk about, like policies everyday Nigerians can relate with. The viewers will find you there.

Not every TV station qualifies to interview PO. ChannelsTV no longer qualifies.

Update:

Are there no more important things to talk about, like how to lift millions of people that Tinubu impoverished, out of poverty?

That shows you that Nigerian journalism is dead with stations like ChannelsTV

Have you seen any opinion polls recently? It's because they have nothing to do but talk about Peter Obi

fasho01:
What's with all the funny comments above

Are you expecting him to declare war with South Africa or what? I am not a huge fan of those xenophobic lots and woukd rather we have nothing to do with them but that doesn't stop our president from holding diplomatic talks with them. Even US and Iran at war still hold talks

Na wa for these emergency lovers of Nigeria oo

Goo0dHardDick:
Dey play. Tinubu that is already hosting the minister and agreed to meet him. Which company will go?

President Bola Tinubu on Monday declined to receive a special delegation from South African President, Cyril Ramaphosa, over the ongoing xenophobic attacks on Nigerians in South Africa, directing the visiting team to instead meet with the Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Sola Enikanolaiye.

Multiple credible Presidency sources with knowledge of the development confirmed to PUNCH Online that the delegation, led by South Africa's Minister of International Relations and Cooperation, Ronald Lamola, had sought an audience with the President after arriving in Abuja on Friday.

Instead, Tinubu instructed them to engage with Enikanolaiye, who was appointed Minister of State for Foreign Affairs in June 2026 after Ambassador Bianca Odumegwu-Ojukwu was elevated to the substantive ministerial position following the exit of Yusuf Tuggar.

The development comes amid a diplomatic row between both countries over renewed xenophobic attacks targeting Nigerians and other African nationals in South Africa, which forced the evacuation of nearly 600 Nigerians back home.

One Presidency source said, "They actually came here on Friday wanting to see the President. But there was no prior notice

Most spoken languages in Nigeria or most spoken Nigerian languages? Which ever one, lack breakdown and secondary research source makes it false.
