Why Are There More Landladies Than Landlords in Edo? by Rapmoney(m): 3:46pm On Mar 11, 2015
If you are on this forum and you are from Edo State of Nigeria, please don't take this so personal! It's just something I have observed and which I believe others must have observed too.

I stayed in Edo State for some couple of years and during my stay, I discovered that there are more landladies than landlords!!! How come? What happened to the real owners of the houses? (Especially, the capital, Benin City). Just ask and you will be told that the husbands of these women (landladies) have died...most of them died mysteriously!!! There's a possibility, which is very high too, that these women murder their husbands just to assume the position of landladies; they don't even care if the house is a face me-I-face you house...all they know is 'Am the landlady' grin

What's your take on this? Has anyone noticed this practice?

OP, I do not know about many dying however, in my opinion, an Edo woman often times is more hardworking than the man. The reason is because the man can have has many wives as he wants to which often times make him neglect a wife and her children thus, the women tend to work hard to secure her future alongside that of her children.

Quiet an observation but,all edo women are not wicked,that
Situation you faced is peculiar in the country now not ony edo,lagos here
Onithsa is worse.I think the reason is that we men go and hussle for money
And build befeating homes for our families and with time all the stress we went
Through making the cash dawns on us and takes us to early grave.
My friend I know good women like my mother that will never worry my old man then
When we wasn't producing cash .not now it can never happen again.

I decided to quote you because your post looks very mature! Though you disagreed with me but you did that in a mature and intelligent way. I appreciate! In my post, I didn't mean all Edo women but most, based on what I saw. Thanks.

@rapmoney, you smoke wet weed when you decided to open a thread abt Edo. Maybe ur insecurities abt you Edo babe that dumped ur sorry ass make u go do research.

Real owners indeed. grin

You see a landlady and you're still looking for the real owner of the building.

I've heard this story a thousand and one times. Well any rumor to disparage hardworking women will always easily make the rounds.

Is it easier to believe those women are hardworking or easier to believe that they are all murderers?

Well, I do not know about the men dying mysteriously or not. I'm not sure about the happenings in town. All I know is that around school areas where I stay, it's true that most of the owners are women. I don't know about them killing their husbands, but I do know that most of them have traveled to Bologna in Italy and come back. If you know what I mean... wink

Those women are up to no good. Real owners? Who built the houses if not the men?

Really? Just because my observations are different from yours you assume I've not stayed in Benin city!. Wow that's mind bugling.

Mind you I schooled in Benin City! Did my Diploma and first degree there.

So tell me, where in Benin City do you stay?.
