thorpido:
It's odd though but I guess some traditional practices heavily influence such decisions.
She wasn't even married to him so why did she feel compelled to marry the brother?

And how did you know that she felt compelled

You Nigerians will just open mouth waaa and be saying rubbish..

Women no dea waste time. Tufiyakwa

Kweeeeke oo.

in Davido voice: Something fishy is going on

Made619:
Well it's a controversial decision she took. if it were to b a Christian bride then hell would have let loosed on her cuz they will say she no even morn the guy for atleast 6months or a year....well since she's from za oza side, it's their tradition they don't morn the dead for too long.

Wow, never knew this

DDDEnterprises:
Are they adults? Yes!

Did they do it out if their free will? Yes!

Did they commit any crime in doing it? No!

So they should fire on! Nobody's business

Traditions tho.

Tradition that can't wait for her to mourn her husband? We are talking about one month here.

Hhhhmmmm. So that the effort of the late brother will not be in vain.

The bride price has been paid

It was also practised in Yorubaland before it became obsolete. Yoruba called the lady involved; OPO. The same way OKO(PENIS) is pronounced without the letter K.
The Jews practise it as well. It can be found in one of the 5 books of MOSES of the Bible.

I see nothing wrong with the decision

am blaming buhari for this

The damsel had to be retained in the family.

Nothing new

Allah kiya hai.......

Clear case of what she ordered for vs what she got

Decency and morality would have made her wait for more time(months)at least to morn the dead then marry from another guy from another family...

Story is not true

She might be pregnant for the other dead brother.

lucky999:
I think the man have been praying for his brother to die so that he can marry her wife.

what if the girl have spiritual problem and maybe what killed his brother killed him too.

Reason am something was going on

Toto na for chop

Love just doesn't happen like that. They have been together covertly even before the elder brother's demise.

Ekejoestar:
What

Could be tradition or the girls' decision, maybe she still wants to marry in the family just to honour his fiance memory.
Pls let's not be quick to judge or apportion blame

Yeah, to honor his memory by collecting similar ie same DNA blokos.
She certainly is doing well..

I won't judge what I don't know and understand

I would really like to understand people's problem.

No wahala, but too early!

After just a month??

Damn!

ITS ALLOW IN OUR RELIGION AND OUR CULTURE.HAPPY NEW LIFE TO THEM

FREEDOM IS PEACE... THIS IS WHAT JESUS CHRIST OFFERS
SURRENDER YOUR LIFE TO JESUS NOW. TOMORROW COULD BE TOO LATE

Okay, sorry sir. Thanks for the correction.

Clearly shows that African weddings are between families, not necessarily between the bride and groom.

In my culture, the bride is given off to the eldest male representing the groom's family at the ceremony, normally the groom's father, who inturn hands the bride to the groom.

This is so beautiful.

One less lonely bride

Let's wait for something according to St Righteousness
