Having Nigerian Husbands Exposes Us To Daily Discrimination – Wives / Say No To Sexual Discrimination On Nairaland / Discrimination Against Single Mothers! (2) (3) (4)
Discrimination Against Edo People by veek2(m): 11:17pm On Oct 22, 2009 |
My girlfriend (Her Dad - Igala, Her Mum - Igbo) and I have been dating for 3 years and when she informed her family of our plans to get married, they strongly opposed her. They only gave one reason - He is from Edo state. She seems to be succumbing to her family pressure and I need to do something fast before I lose her. I've met and pleaded with her mum but she remains adamant (Her Dad is late). I need some valuable advice urgently. Pls assist. |

In my experience, Nigerians generally do not have problems with their sons marrying from other tribes; the problem is more with their daughters marrying into other tribes because of stereotypes (both real and unreal), and ignorance. No one wants their daughter to suffer elsewhere because our cultures always dictate that wives should be subservient to their husbands. If my daughter or sister is mistreated by her husband and we are from the same tribe, it is easier to resolve than if we are from different tribes. You have to understand this very well. Also, perhaps you have been exhibiting certain behaviours which are easily associated with your tribe which your girlfriend's family do not like. This is a very sensitive issue. The best way to approach this predicament, is to show the family that you intend to take care of their daughter and that you would be prepared to lay down your life in protecting her at all times; you must mean it when you say it and you must also demonstrate your love for her. I say this because there are many men who marry from other tribes and are too weak to protect their wives from wicked in-laws. |

it baffles me when parents raise up issues about tribe. if she is giving to her mum, its not cos she sees tribe as the issue, rather there is a second option and she is also weighting it. i dont think she would think twice if you was the onl;y one. |

Edo women/girl marry not becos of love but becos of profit from such wedding, they believe in their beauty and toto and they are professional in bed, becos of many years of watching home video and blue films. They want the husband to do everything for them, encourage him to aspire for everything. Becos of the love the man has, he would be suffering and smiling until he dies. Meanwhile the wife would have chased all family and close relations away. Whatever the man left belong to her even the children. That's why people label them bad. |

^^^@above poster And you can insult your 'hosts' this way? Lots of you make retarded statements. It's always easy to know those that are kids. @OP It's common with tribalistic parents. In this day and age nobody should hold lovers to ransome cos of tribe. Just know that what is yours will be yours. |
