Family / Re: At What Age Is A Person Meant To Leave The Family House by walesalak(m): 8:46pm On Nov 02, 2017
I think it depends on d determination of d person

I know of somone who works and still stays with his parent (Altho i guess due to d old man age and also to keep him company so he doesnt develop unnecesary ailment)

He provides for virtually everything in d house ranging from electricity bills to food, building project, water bills and attimes help to sort financial issues.

So i see it as a mindset and determination though. But d risk in there is it will affect him thinking of getting married on time cos most ladies value privacy.

I av advised him though to get his own apartment even if he wont stay in there but as a means for him to gather his own properties also.
Family / What Determines Repect In Marriage/ Relationships? by walesalak(m): 8:10pm On Nov 02, 2017
Hello peepz.

I Just want to sample ur opinion on the above subject matter. I was having a brief discussion with some friends of mine both male nd female on the fact we used to be tld back then that if a lady keeps herself pure (virginity) till marriage it determines the amount of respect d husband gives to her and her family.

Do these phenomenon still exist in this modern day? Especially with this 21st century mentality of doing things?

To the married and mayb dos courting pls we will like to read ur opinion on this.

I believe ur contribution will make d younger folks who arnt in it or who are about making certain decision of dia lives think about it's aftermath.

Thanks so much..

Thanks for the advice .
The thing is Deeper Life is a good Church, but some of our women don't dress well and they are dirty. So the point is that picking a woman from that church is NO.
I dissagree with u on this. u cant tell me all dos fine ladies i see without makeups are so dirty.
Dont tell me you dont have d female folks who are educated cos i believe to some extent been esucated could av something to do with dressing and been tidy. And by d way i thought u shud b looking for a LADY ages from 28 shud b ohk. and not woman like single moms etc.

I.M.O
dia are virgins wth good moral upbringing and character while dia are nonvirgins with good moral upbringing and character we still av d bad ones. So it's relative. Its just that chances are that d nonvirgins have tasted life from different people and perharps have learnt dia lessons.Unlike d virgins.
I once had chat with a lady who claims to b a virgin and she statee she wouldnt want to associate herself with her husbands family if thry av certain functions like parties etc and am like what d hell is this one saying?

Culture / Traditional Marriages In Customs In Nigeria. Which One Have U Witnessed? by walesalak(m): 3:31pm On Oct 29, 2017
Marriage is very important in the Nigerian society.
In Nigeria, there are different tribes and ethnic groups, ( ranging from hausa,ibo,yoruba,ijaw,nembe,kalabari,benin,tiv, isan,ebira etc) and each one has its own unique and beautiful customs and traditions. This means that each tribe has its own special wedding practices.

examples are.


1. The Sharo tradition

Fulanis believe in flogging a prospective groom publicly before the wedding. This is to test the bravery and resilience of the groom and make him prove that he is worthy of the bride. Any groom who chickens out or cries loses the bride.


2. The tradition of prostrating among the Yorubas

Yoruba people don’t joke with respect. During a Yoruba wedding, the groom and his friends will have to lie flat on the ground and prostrate to the family of the bride. They’re supposed to prostrate on the bare floor with their fine agbadas. The groom is expected to prostrate four times before the end of the ceremony.


3. The Bride price custom among the Igbos

Marrying an Igbo lady is not a task for the faint-hearted. The groom is usually given a list of items that must be provided before he can marry the bride. The gift items are usually for the bride and her family, and cash is also expected. The items are usually expensive, and the more successful the bride is, the more her family demands.

4. The virginity test among the Yorubas

This is another marriage tradition among the Yorubas. It is expected that a groom will bring out a white cloth stained with blood, after consummating the marriage to prove that the bride is a virgin and has kept herself ‘pure’. If the bride is a virgin, the groom sends gifts to her family. If she isn’t a half boiled yam is sent to her family.

5. The ‘no smiling’ custom among the Ijaws

During the wedding ceremony, an Ijaw bride is expected not to smile until she has been sprayed plenty money by the groom.

6. The Igbo custom of identification

During the marriage ceremony, 3 women are presented to the groom. The women have their faces covered, and the groom has to pick his bride.

7. The Yoruba custom of carrying the bride

This is not a really serious tradition. The groom is expected to lift the bride to prove that he’s capable of lifting her and supporting her throughout their married life.

My questions Ladies and gentlemen,boys n girls,papa n mama, aunties n uncles, fathers and mothers, enemies n friends, how many of this and many more are still practiced in your tradition?
How many of these are still relevant to modern day culture?

Pls feel free to share urs if i havent mentioned ur tribe in my writeup.

Thanks

Altho this thread qas created in January i believe itw still relevant.

But for me. I find it hard to trust any female corper this is based on d experience i had back then in NYSC. Even up to d fact that NACC mama dey F.....k. This one na my korokoro eyes i take see them.
Even pastor pikin dey carry Local Govt chairman n community chiefs. Lol

Any lady who isnt going out with her male counterpart will definitely b giving out to outsiders who can afford d money
