Family / Re: White Wedding Or Traditional Marriage Which One Do Yo Prefere? by oludashmi(f): 11:55am On Feb 27, 2012 |
N101: You are really ignorant (not insulting you). Did you hear the way it is pronounced? Introduction!!. . . this is a way for the immediate family of both parties to meet and know each other before the traditional wedding day where the dowry is paid. Dowry is not paid at the introduction, neither is it paid in the church. And the dowry is the most important part of any union both before God and Man, even if it is paid in the sitting room with witnesses and no ceremony is conducted at all! realiforj: Your first sentence was very right but you missed it at the boldened statement. . .I will explain As its name signifies, the white wedding is the culture/system/way (including court) that a white man gets married. And it doesnt have to be in the church. Before the advent of civilization, our weddings used to be in the traditional way only but white wedding became a part of us due to colonisation and our beliefs that white men things are superior. Another reason white wedding became a part of us is the unavoidable fact that we are a very religious people and the Church as a whole has derailed from its foundation. Lastly, its true that God instituted marriage but he did not institute a type of marriage. What he instituted was dowry and witnesses from both parties, not even the ceremony. We originated the ceremony based on our cultures. And having your wedding in the church does not guarantee protection or lasting. Check newspapers or go to customary courts weekly and be convinced. Wherever you decide to pay your dowry, the presence of God is there and a union is sealed! 2 Likes |

You can change it to one of your father's native names if you really wish to. Although, it binds and makes generations traceable. But like someone said, it doesnt make you more Christian or better than your siblings. It can can even serve as evangelism. |

Traditional wedding is the real wedding. Its the type acceptable before God and man cos this is where dowry is paid and both parties are represented. White wedding (Court): Is binding legally and according to the laws of the land White wedding (church or mosque): No dowry is paid here, which makes it less than the traditional wedding. This is just to expand the ceremony. 1 Like |

Culture / Re: Shrines And Justice In Igbo Culture. by oludashmi(f): 9:32am On Nov 24, 2011 |
Andre Uweh: You ehn? You can never disappoint me! The purpose of shrines is to bring justice. Not to kill or rituals Igbos are all christians, they are not prone to adultery and sins, infact they were all born speaking in tongues. . .that has always been the self-deceptive messages of your brothers. Since you started this thread to debate on the way forward in your populous shrines amidst your countless sins, pls establish more shrines to fulfill your purpose. I'm sure many of us will be generous enough to name your new shrines without charges. Take care sha. |
Culture / Re: Shrines And Justice In Igbo Culture. by oludashmi(f): 2:42pm On Nov 23, 2011 |
Aigbofa: No they are all born again Christians and do not commit sin/adultery Andre Uweh: Oh, so they worship the almighty God in the shrines . Thank God we now know. What about all the stones, woods and other objects that are being bowed for and painted in colours, labelled with feathers or greased in palm oil in all your shrines? Please give us a public relations lecture on them as regards alaigbo. |

Anybody could have influenced anybody cos we all originated frm somewhere and have accommodated foreigners at one time or the other. What matters is that we all have our known ethnic cultures and traditions within the country called Nigeria and the poster is only talking about inter-tribal influence at the present not in the 18th century. |

Culture / Re: Are Igbos Culturally Fused ? by oludashmi(f): 9:24am On Nov 16, 2011 |
mbatuku2:Dude. . . you are not right at the boldened. If a Yoruba says anything about the boldened, its just for a sec, it holds no water cos the same person is ever ready to marry from that side. So when using ethnic differentiation, avoid involving Yorubas and Hausas, they are way more united than the igbos. At the same time, you neednt use Yorubas or other ethnic group before agreeing or disagreeing with a point, just give your point to look at how you guys cant sort the identity probs not comparism. ChinenyeN:Your points are usually matured |

manchy7531: How do you know we all love ourselves? From all indication, you are first an igbo man before a Nigerian? You started well but ended horribly. . .if you believe in unity, love as you claim why will it bother you who becomes president in 2015 or did you you start the thread deliberately to seek attention and later derailed it to an igbo 2015 campaign manchy7531: Imagine your level of tribalism even before joining NL. . . .you know someone is not good for a nation of over 150million but you voted him for the sake of ethnicism. If Goodluck end up not achieving any tangible thing in 4yrs, you would have sent to an early grave millions of Nigerians and would have destroyed millions of destinies on the ground of ethnic group. Stop lieing, you do not love Nigeria, you love only ibo land and ibo presidency. |
