i mean why are some of the igbos so stupid. Just a question: Why do igbo men marry late at age of 45,50,60 even in the grave self they will still want to marry, eh! my brother just question oh. if you don't know what to say close your mouth and do not abuse your self.

@poster, you are really going beyond bounds. This is not a laughing matter. It is obvious that you really lack home training. Rather than accept wise counsels from able and dignified Igbo sons and daughters on Nairaland, you resort to name calling.

I forgive you seeing that you are a juvenile, as someone rightly observed.

On a final note, Stop being opinionated. Learn to respect people's ethnicity.

I understand how you feel. So you are in Port Harcourt? Maybe we can arrange to see and I will explain better to you. This will help better than pouring all these vituperation on innocent people that only want to answer you question. Take things easy.

grin grin ''Just a question" eh? Lol. . . I see you're trying so hard to be the 'victim' instead of the 'Crusader' you obviously are. People gave you honest answers in the beginning but all you did was plaster them with inflammatory remarks. You vehemently rejected every input that it is the norm for them to marry from age 35, instead you asserted that it is the norm for Igbo men to marry at the age of 45, anything less than than is pure fantasy and unfounded. How can anyone give you answers when all you want to do is listen to your own voice?

Anyway if you read my post carefully you will see that i did not insult anyone at all, except those who did insult themselves which i returned back to them.

When you debate in a topic, it does not mean you did not want to accept others opinions. I stood on my own ground that what i said is the truth, then is left for anyone to say whatever he knows about it and then give proof if he has any.

so it shouldn't bring insult on me or even to my parents ok. If you check what those that i replied said; you will see that they started it and they will surely have.

This is a question and nothing more or less. Just say your opinion and do not abuse anyone.

By your speech you too lack HOME TRAINING AND UNDERSTANDING. I DON'T WORSHIP OR DIE FOR TRIBE. IF SOMETHING IS BAD I SAY IS BAD, I DO NOT COVER PEOPLE SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY ARE IGBO,HAUSA,YORUBA,CHRISTIANOR MUS.LI.M. OK. I stand on the truth.

Mary Mary,ole ihe mere i jiri kwuwe what you know its unfounded and not true.Every reasonable man,tribe not relevant here,would want to have the basic things of life before getting married BUT not till the ages you so mentioned.No way,its not obtainable anywhere.If it even is existing,then its an individual problem and has NOTHING to do with the persons background or tribe.the Fact that you have seen one or two or even 100 million late marriages in igboland does not and can never mean that igbo men don't mary early.each man/woman marries when she/he wants to.a matter of choice !

On a serious note:

It shall be well for those who want to get their partners (male and female).

If marriage is your cup of tea, may Chineke guide and direct you to the right pardner.

May the woman live and the same goes for the man

May the one trying to harm us with agwu nsi become the only victim of his evil machinations

May we quench our thirst/hunger and may the thing that will use us to quench its thirst/hunger never see the light of a new dawn

May Kelly, can i ask you, did you go to iboland to get an ibo man and can't get known. Instead of being bitter, i might be more constructive to approach an elderly ibo lady to help you. If you really beg her, she will call a meeting with her sister friends and they will find one for you. No matter how wrenk you are, there must be an ibo man that can manage you. You carry on like you don't like ibo's but you speak the language, that dont make no sense. Sis, keep it real, all you have to do is ask.

Anyway the average of 40, 60 and 90 is actually 50 and not 43. So from ur research the average Igbo man gets married @ the age of 50 grin
