[quote author=MrKoi post=93639919][/quote]You can not serve God and Mammon. you talk about your relationship with God and you say that you don't feel like to do it. feeble mind, what has light to do with darkness? Doing the sacrifice is building on a wrong foundation in your marriage, you are entering a fetish covenant and brother, go and read your bible about covenants; Even God Almighty respect covenant, when the gods of that covenant remember to visit you in the future, your God that you claim to have a relationship with will just be watching you. You know Little or nothing yet about the said sacrifice.
I know a lot about tradition, and how they work, i can share some experience of friends and family members with you.
My advice for you is to avoid any form of sacrifice either directly or indirectly. If you must Mary the girl stand your ground as a true Christian, no compromise.

How come is it that you're from the same tribe yet you don't know of this cultural practice?

Anyway I would advise you do it

I'm not an Ibibio man.

if she's from ibiono Ibom, it's called mkpo Adiaha owo. it's a ritual you perform to the girls ancestors. you can't marry the girl if you don't do it

I think it's generally about the Ibibio tribe because she's not from Ibiono Ibom.

I encountered the same challenge in 2014. She refused to tell me the truth until it was too late to turn back. My folks asked me to ditch but I said no because of love. No regrets. If she had told me earlier, I bet you I will just put an end to the relationship.
Reason for my advice above.
Girls should stop deceiving men into marriage because she and her family pretend all through to the last moment.

What is deceive in all you said....marriage is all about Tue two of u guyz...or was sh fake with her feelings..?

Dt a thing is her tradition ,is sh d one that formed it..? Feeling like u came from the clouds and don't have tradition

Suppose ur wife to be decided never to allow ur family ppl wash her feet as sh tries to enter the house if her groom,shebi u would call her disobedient..? But are you the one that formed the tradition even if u claim it doesn't hurt anyone

I know the tradition the OP is talking about..and its harmless just like feet washing in Yoruba land..its a southeastern traditiom where you have to buy goat and give to the family in a small scale. Gathering where her mom takes the main parts of it..finish!

He is now painting it as if he is angel and the gals family are evil.... Fake people everywhere

I agree with u, Love over ur religious belief, never!!

Give to Ceasar, what belongs to Ceasar! !.

It's their daughter (from that community)you are getting married to and not your daughter.

So respect their customs & traditions since you want to take 1 of their own!!.


Hand wey carry himself go palm oil,
Na him palm oil go stain.
Unless if you are been force to marry her ,
Which is never to late to back off.


My little advice and opinion, sha
