Well, their expectations might have been too high on both sides chrisj2: I disagree to some extent on the issues of misogyny and African men not be able to adjust. Some have been abroad for many many years and have had relationships with western Washington men both black or white. There is just something different about bringing someone abroad and those brought over developing serious wings even when the men are no different from their white counterparts. Oyinbo men too do misogyny and their women too can be as submissive...
Black women at times have the Jezebel complex and get too angry... |

Did you read what I wrote? Mikehot: who told you the issue is about chores?
If you went through this post from the start you would realize the women are not complaining about chores but that the man shouldn't feel he deserve a say "for mere bringing a woman abroad" they say that abroad isn't heaven hence whenever the woman finds her feet financially she can choose to go solo if she wishes just because "she can't be a slave to the man by contributing in one purse and using it together"
Regardless of how the man spent his all to bring the woman, raise her up at his own expense. |

Great points but it applies to both genders please.
You bring your culture of misogyny and ego to a different country with a culture. I understand that it is ingrained in some of you and it might be difficult to change but at least try. Don't leave all the chores to your wife. Engage your kids too. Then some these men that choose to abandon their financial responsibility because of child benefit. They would rather spend on GFS and young ladies back home.
The women, suddenly they desire better. They want live an more expensive lifestyle. The picture of the abroad is not what they expected. Then in some cities, you see them in very silly competitions from the number of bfs, owanbe, number of houses they have in Nigeria.
Stay outside many of the big cities or keep to yourself. |

I know him. Isn't he a public figure? A brute who slapped a poor defenseless girl some years back? A power-hungry bully who forced his family to convert and cursed his step-mother that remained a Muslim? Put your CU education into good use. I attack that brute not his faith. Don't mind me. I skipped the BS you were typing. He surely did but let's not forget the simpletons that paid for the schools too. Too bad their children would never go there. He would rather build more churches than help them. JovialJune: Funny thing is that, you are a Muslim
If non Muslims were to be all over you guys restricted threads, y'all will be all over the place complaining, look at way you've been castigating a man you don't know from Adam

LMAO. God will judge you for being a fool What he did, what he has done, is nothing new. His prophecy to his step-mother has failed to pass. He is a false prophet. Many Christians who converted did that years back. Deal with it! JovialJune: If you are not from Kwara state or Omu-Aran, or part of his family to know this, God will judge you for lying. |

I understand. I think its survival is based on other Igbos enforcing the same. A growing nonchalant attitude towards the rites might change that narrative though. Yorubas don't have that at all. Even where both roots are in the same city, there is really nothing except maintaining family togetherness. pocohantas: I can’t explain it well, but Igbos are deeply tied to their roots and togetherness. You don’t really know a person except you know his/her ancestral home and that can never change. SanwoOlu can decide to demolish our house in Lagos, but that can’t happen in the village.
Various rites in Igbo land are also stressful, so no matter how long it takes, something must bring you back to them. It is better you start identifying with them early. |
Family › Re: My Sister Wants Traditional Marriage In The City: Is It Normal? by Sterope(f): 8:52am On Dec 14, 2020 |
I am curious. Why is the village very important? pocohantas: Majority of the people saying it is fine are not Igbos. The only people I know that will live, marry and be buried in Lagos without knowing their hometowns are Yorubas, no offense, but Igbos do not do that.
As woke as I am, one thing I will never do is my trad in the city or even marry without knowing the village of my partner.
All these woke Igbo people running away from the village saying “village people”, yes they could be a handful and I hate that- but a day will come when you’ll need those village people. I have an aunty that did Lagos marriage when I was a teenager, today she regrets it.
Even if you wake me from deep sleep, I will show you the way to my parents house IN THE VILLAGE. I can also show you their own parents houses as jara, that is my ROOT. |

I agree with you, but the 'stingy' assumption is farfetched. pocohantas: It is the same way mechanics behave when a woman brings her car to them. Even ordinary vulcanizer would try to scam you.
It is simply because they don’t see men doing it often and they assume you don’t know the prices of those things.

You can apply for the transit visa, there may be an option for a fast-track. Immigration officers might help but I won't hold my breath on that. Or find another airline with a stopover in another country like Turkish airline. It might be more expensive, better find the money. This is the best alternative, Chinese immigration laws are rigid. Deola2020: Hello Nairalanders.....A close friend of mine was to return to Nigeria from china early this year but due to covid-19 pandemic decided to stay back a bit till everything was clear...
Fast forward to now after booking for his flight ticket which has a stopover in hongkong,he was denied boarding a plane in Shanghai cos he doesn't have an hongkong transit visa which he never knew of or told and his visa expires in 3days and getting the hongkong transit visa takes 4 weeks.....
Please experienced nairaland travellers and guys currently residing in China, please what countries can he has stop-overs or connecting flights to that doesn't require transit visa... .
Pls help urgently so he won't overstay his visa or have issues with Chinese authorities because he is operating under a low budget after expending so much to exorbitant flight tickets rates and other Chinese authorities wahala....
Please I need y'all advice before I book another flight ticket for him before 7am Shanghai time |
