Can You Marry From Another Tribe? by almoner(m): 10:01am On Dec 24, 2010
I was reading in one of the classrooms in my college and suddenly a discussion ensure.

A young Nigerian lady was asking if any of us can marry from another tribe.

After much arguments, we couldn't arrive at a definite answer to that.

So, tell me your opinion about inter-tribal marriage and consequences if any.

Why not? Except Isi-Ala Ngwa wink wink wink
Re: Can You Marry From Another Tribe? by Farxiya(f): 7:37pm On Dec 24, 2010
I don't see why not. There are many different clans in my country, but we still date and marry out of them.
Re: Can You Marry From Another Tribe? by holydante(m): 8:04pm On Dec 24, 2010
Well, I've always had this laissez fair abi na fare(someone should supply the right spelling abeg if I didn't get it) attitude towards inter tribal union being that I grew up in the later part of the 20th century.

I had it in mind to date other tribes after my ethnic ladies that I gave right of 1st refusal all prentended they dnt want no black man.

The "bolanle" I hooked up finally made me understand that her pop won't even accept another tribe and was using me to climb the ladder a bit. Geez, we called it quits since 2yrs now(she is presently among those calln to wish merry Xmas and I knew what shez upto)

Anyway, its latino's and brazilians all the way now.
Re: Can You Marry From Another Tribe? by tavon(m): 8:09pm On Dec 24, 2010

I cant believe this question is being asked when are heading into the 2nd year of the 2nd decade of the 21st century. Who cares where you're from at this age and time, it's about what you have to offer

You have no idea what you're missing. These people are the nicest people in the world. That story about them being cannibals is just a myth

how can you say its a myth when you know deep in heart that its true they are real cannibals, my elder sister served in Isa-ala ngwa, they lost a doctor coper to the villagers that year to the community. they are an evil community.
am surprised u are trying to deny it cos even other ibos can atest ti it

I served in Isiala Ngwa North and I can tell you they are the most hospitable people in the world. Even within Abia, Isiala Ngwa people are marginalized, they're viewed with the 'cannibal' stereotype, no wonder they are reluctant to tell you they are from there

I equally served there and I was given the treat of my life. They are not evil. They are a stand out people. I really love them. There's no place where corp members don't die.

May be so, but they don’t get killed and eaten up by the host community. i really dont want to go into the details of what hapened cos its many years now and maybe most are nice pple, but to completely deny it is not being realistic.

Yes of course,infact that is the best thing,since your neighborhood create more familiarity.
