Persephone1: We no get wahala, wetin concern us with yeye discrimination when we know we aren't God that creates human beings. Can you imagine a tradition where some people are regarded as outcasts, meanwhile they cannot create a single strand of hair, talk less of a human being. Even in my next life, if I come as a Nigerian, I would be a Yoruba man. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

talented321: In this case, they don't see anything more than the poster. They are just prejudiced. It's not every piece of advice you should take from an elderly person. Fools grow old too, you know. A person who is foolish in his youth will grow up to be foolish and because he/she has grey hair, you might be tempted to accept their advice as sheer wisdom. Jesus died for our sins and set everyone free. There is no Osu. We are all freeborn. You are a man. God against your people's wish if you are convinced that she is a good girl. But is this how they will be discriminating against one another when they finally get Biafra? |

hammerT: Typically Igbo man ![]() Which one is praying against poverty again? Me wey don defeat poverty since ![]() The data on the ground doesn't support your position. Most people in Nigeria don't have 500usd, which is 500k. So tell me, where are these rich men bikonu? Instead of you to see the merit in my point, you infused your bias into it. Now tell me, how is an expensive bride price that will bankrupt a home that is just starting a good thing? What about a parent blessing the home of his daughter, and even giving them some money to start a family with? If a man wants to marry my daughter, I won't collect any bride price. Instead, I will rather give them payment for a house, or a car, and contribute to their wedding. I will ask the man whats up? If he needs help with establishing himself, I will support him further. I wont see himas a victim to cash out from. I will be a giver, not a receiver. The couples are just starting their life, why not prop them up instead of seeing them as a means to cash out? I don't care if it is culture, it just doesn't make sense to me. In that regard, some Igbo cultures especially imo are parasitic. 10 Likes 1 Share |

hammerT: You seriously are personalizing this issue to me. Cant you discuss neutrally bikonu? Yes, my parents got married, and are still married. So what's your point sef? And no, when my sister got married, my parents did exactly that. No one naira was collected from my inlaws, and they were given lots of gifts including cash, to start their home. You think it is every Nigerian that practice that backward system of seeing a man as a means to cash out from? Where is your self-respect? So you see, it's not a big deal. No matter how you twist, misunderstand, or misinterpret my point, my position is simple. Which is, don't see a man as a wallet to ransack. He is a human that Nigeria is also dealing with. Be easy and don't see him as a means to cure your poverty problem. That is my point. |

hammerT: Mr man, collect the Bride price. All I am saying is that you should practice humanity while doing it. Don't make the man bitter and poorer just because he married your sister/daughter. A few weeks ago, a thread hit the frontpage about a newly married woman complaining that her husband have changed for the worse after their wedding night, ANd when she asked him, he explained that he is in debt, and the money he paid for brideprice is so much. The man was broke just because he married her. I mean, I do not want any man to be broke because he married my sister or my daughter, instead, I want her presence in his life to boost him higher, and she will be a true blessing to him. WHich school you go sef? I cant believe this is too hard for you to get. COllect bride price, just don't kill the man with bills, thats all. 1 Like |
