babyosisi:nigerians don't like to hear the truth so and you just told it to their face, so expect to be attacked. I live in the north in small town with a large population of yorubas. I can hardly think of any yoruba man here that does not have an out of wedlock child or a second wife or some other sinister story. I'm not being tribalistic but being realistic. And the person saying an igbo born and raised in lagos will behave like a yoruba is grossly mistaken. Igbo children born here generally have deride many of the common practises in other tribes but they hide it in other to blend in. They might date non igbos but as they get older, they dump them. Who wants to marry a northerner whether christian or not? 6 Likes |

PAGAN 9JA: Nah! I'm not a disgrace to the Igbos, as a matter of fact, I'm a champion of the Igbo culture, the sensible ones, not the ones that promotes violence & senseless killings. The Igbo culture of the pagan era practised some nasty things, even you will agree with that. We are humans & we must continue to evolve in every aspect of life, it's left for us absorb the good bits of other cultures, blend it into ours to form a perfect mix. You can't come here and tell us to still be practising paganism, killing chickens & making sacrifices, this is a different age, don't you want to evolve. Many other cultures around the world like the incas, the Aztecs, used to practice human sacrifices, today they've moved on, it doesn't mean they've lost their culture, they've just blended it. Go to New Zealand, they still do the Haka dance, do they go round fighting nak*ed? NO |

[quote author=Capableben]One hardly sees an ibo man succumb to marrying a lady from a contrasting origin. The few that end up marrying ladies from other tribes are always scolded at or not given much support.. Why is this so Is it culturally inclined? maybe other ladies are not as good as good as igbo ladies Give me answers![/quote] I think, it is because other tribes disciminates against the Igbos |

I am igbo. By His grace, I will marry my gf who is Edo. Even if you have met 1000 igbo men who insist on marrying igbo, you cannot make such a naive generalization since there are millions other igbo men. You people keep looking for reasons to fuel tribalism on nairaland. Its not good! 2 Likes |

babyosisi: there's no point denying anything - these beliefs have been with you now for about 40+ years, what would my denial do? change you all of a sudden to see things from a different perspective? it won't worth my while. none of the things you have said is remotely true. infidelity, promiscuity, marital affair, etc has no tribal code. no tribe does it more than the others - the crazy thing is you are going to poison the minds of your kids with the same myths that one tribe woos women better & one tribe hides their mistresses better. the mind boggles..... 5 Likes |

Have read through load of crap here and cant ignore things, i just have to comment. I am a product of lagos, precisely Mushin and schooled there as well, most of my friends are from the east but back to the main issue, marriage should have nothing to do with tribe. As yoruba guy, family will say no to Igbo lady that is crap ,i remember some years ago most igbo lady i asked out always say no because am yoruba "my mum will not allow me marry outside my tribe" so i decide to chill but years later i met Uchechi, menh she was so sweet, dont think about it jooor. with uche things were going on fine but i learned one thing from her, the igbo ladies that say no think or know you dont have money (eegoo) when your pocket is smiling,once they know you can pay the bill forget it. Even among the Ndi igbo there is hatered as per state, Imo cant marry an Anambra guy etc , i lived in owerri so am talking from experience.Ndidi chop my money ,chizoba was too tribalistic, mary typical aladinma babe start showing proper interest once she heard i went to obodo oyinbo. Forget it, Real love has nothing to do with tribe Ndi igbo kwenu Ndi igbo Kwenu 1 Like |

I almost got married to Segun a handsome and God fearing Yoruba guy fron Ijebu Ode. After proposing to me, I allowed him to come to our house for the first time. My parents liked him but when my mum discovered that he was a Yoruba guy, she became very cold. Although my father was very indifferent. The only thing my mum could say was over her dead body... and I became so afraid. I don't know why she was against it till date. I prayed all manners for prayers for God's will to be done; you know I don't want to go against my parents wish? They must bless my marriage. At the end it dosen't work out . Even the Segun died a day after my wedding The reason they were against the marriage then I don't know but I've come to understand some of the reasons |

babyosisi:you really know yorubas very well. The man works in a federal ministry but spends less than 30mins at work each day. He just signs in and come home to watch tv. And he really spent money when he was wooing the widow, more than any hardworking igbo man would do. But when she got pregnant. Story changed. The woman de suffer honestly. Her late husband family have taken away the children and enrolled them in good schools leaving the woman with the out of wedlock child. They want to take the child too since it's theirs by igbo tradition and d biological father don't want to marry the mother but the yoruba man is threatening to withdraw his financial support to the woman because she went back to school for a higher certificate and need the money to survive. She told me secretly that the man is still sleeping with her while forming church leader and any attemp t to stop it results in him withdrawing his financial help. She told me that once she is through with her education, she will leave town with the child with out the yoruba man knowing even how to contact them. I really pity her. She is between the devil and the deep blue sea. |
