Oga there's a Famous statement and I quote,

“What the elders can see while sitting down, the young man cannot see it, even if he climbs the highest Iroko tree".

A word is enough for the wise.

In this context, I guess the above quote is irrelevant dear.. This is because OP's mother did the same thing by going against her parents wishes and settled for her one true love...

Assuming she obeyed her parent those days and married whom they chose for her then your quote would have made some sense now.... why didn't she abide by what the elders see/ iroko climbing those days?..

It might not be out of place if I say that the quote was fallacy.... considering OP's parent successful marriage..

DaddyRochie1642:






The OP never indicated that his parents has a successful marriage

Shouting match will not solve anything... Getting angry where no one tends to listen to another person's opinion won't help..

Do operation 7day best behaviour... Be extra nice to your dad for one week.. within the 7th day, while he's relaxing, buy two bottles of what ever he likes.. join him and tell him u want to talk.. Ask him why his in laws refused to let him marry their daughter and what he did/ how he handled it.. let the conversation flow without interruption.. From there, you can figure out what to do..
