The poster seems too proud and pompous. The family saw that too.
OP, when u upgrade your education you will realize that there's more to life than having money.

getting married to a woman can't motivate me to upgrade my educational background.
already told her it's over so be it, she's the one shedding tears over here.

If she wants to go let her go, but she will regret it later.

My husband had this issue before he met me.
The young lady he wanted to settle down with refused him because he was an OND holder, while she was a medical student then. Unfortunately she was already pregnant, but her mom said over her dead body would her daughter marry a nobody, they aborted the baby.

When he met me, my family started their own drama,
They turned their back on me, called me names, hmmm,
I have never regretted saying yes to him.

As for the other lady, he won’t leave my husband alone, claiming she can’t live without him.

Make more money, Na them go rush you

If you see the other lady, break her head please

Am hurt, 4 years relationship about to go down the drain.first time meeting her parents was last week Sunday, they did welcome me with a smiling face.
After all the introductions and making my intentions known to them I like to marry their daughter.

my girlfriend called me on phone yesterday that she's coming over, which she did and start saying that her elder bro and her mum is kicking against our marriage. i asked why? she said because am an Ssce holder.

yes I might be an Ssce holder, but am self employed doing well for myself (I noi de beg to chop) isn't that enough.

can't an Ssce holder marries a bsc, msc or a phd holder.
why the discrimination towards a brother because of a white man education?
because of a white sheet of paper.

Hello Sir, I've read some comments suggesting that you advance educationally, from my understanding of those comments I think they're saying that you should do it for you, and not because of some woman.

At 36, you can still get a higher level of certification before 40-42yrs of age, and that's going to make you a more flexible person in your future endeavours.

Why is she crying over there? She should be crying to her parents and brother who disallowed her to marry Lohl, Abi the parents get who dey enter their eyes

Tbh she has a bigger role to play afterall it's she's the one getting married not the parents.
Is she independent? Abi na daddy's pet?

If only men stopped playing victim about these things.

Here is a similar situation. 8 years of dating and he suddenly can't marry because she's suddenly illiterate because she's an SSCE holder. She has not created a thread to make the author of the thread look bad.

Is this the new breed of slaymen who whine and bring everything online? Or is the pay now so juicy?

You don't need to go to school or earn a university degree to prove that you have knowledge.

You are one of the people that see paper certificate as a proof of worthiness.

That's very petty of you.

The problem is that many of you are obstinate and stuck to your guns myopically.

Inspite of the clamour for higher education, we still have so many half baked graduates out there who can't even write simple English

Bro, it's not about getting married to a woman. Getting a high education now will save you a lot of embarrassment in the future. Imagine how Soludo is using his professorial academic qualification to intimate other contestants in Anambra elections.

You never know the ambition you will have tomorrow and someone says you cannot have it because you didn't further your education.

You can do a part-time and get that certificate. It improves your worth and nobody can belittle you because of ordinary documents. More importantly, you are definitely going to learn when you return to school.

Alternatively, you can settle for a polytechnic. Do your OND and pause. Later, you can finish your HND. Anyone who stops learning is DEAD! This is an angle to look at things from.

They may have no other agenda. I know many families that would not want their girl child to marry who no be university graduate. This particular one wey I sabi, the girl na lecturer. The dude na ssce him get but dude get plenty money. He has been into dog business since I was born. He is established already but the girl papa say him no gree for the marriage. The girl do strong head sha

I understand you.

As I am now, I am an high school drop out. My education cannot and will not stop God blessings for my life, nor will my education prevent me from marrying a girl from a top notch family.

I learn to let people go.
I learn to love myself.
I learn to know my self worth and value.

Marriage is a choice between two people and if the creator Himself respect our choices, then no man can stop a woman from marrying whom she want.

TEACHER4REAL:
Degree is not ordinary paper it is knowledge and knowledge is power and they might be right in there own one because marriage requires compatibility so that they can reason in similar direction and not just money

I've been there abeg. Degree na ordinary paper. I know many of my mates wey sabi lab work pass some of my lecturers sef. They've been into this for a long time. Na promotion carry them enter university. After we finish, I won't still reach their back

muykem:
You can go back to school. I can't allow my daughter to marry illiterate even if he's a billionaire.

Being an ssce holder doesn't mean the fellow is an illiterate.

GraciousGod190:

thanks very much, I appreciate.

DAT is a green light from d babe. Der is dis babe with nland moniker Bola, she is a wife material.

Baba find a woman that will love you for who you are.

for the records, what is she saying? Can't she convince her family on this? It is her life not theirs.

What matters is the money not the qualification. a lot of PHD holderss are poor in Nigeria today.

Your writing skill is already good enough.

womenareapess:
I doubt this guys is an ssce holder

You make up fvcked up story just to get trend

Why?

Anybody who believe this guy is an ssce holder can believe anything that comes out of the mouths of lie Muhammed

What's your point...that SSCE holders can't write like that...what's complex about what he has been writing all over this thread ...
He's fvcking 36 not 15...

I've met plenty Igbo guys that speak well, write well and are SSCE holders...and with plenty money

And im sure it's coming from a person who has no degree.

Lolz. How many paper certificate does Facebook owner has? Mark Zuckerberg doesn't have more than high school (secondary school) certificate, yet none of your family members can ever be as rich as he is.

You are a dumb man that doesn't know he is dumb.

dahmie2013:

My brother, seeking knowledge has nothing to do with age. This attitude is not the best. I still advise you go to school and upgrade yourself.

You sound so dumb. Uneducated illiterate. How can you be 36 and refuse to upgrade? It's not as if you do not have the money. There are part time programs. Open university dey too.
Education opens your mind. It is more than knowing how to read and write and count money.

I believe every person should have at least a national diploma. Ssce is like primary school certifcate of 70s.

Look at this lunatic. When Nigeria constitutes say, all you need to contest for any government seat in this country is Ssce.

If na woman now they would say you should over look and marry her if you love her. Wo everyone should marry their class

Am hurt, 4 years relationship about to go down the drain.first time meeting her parents was last week Sunday, they did welcome me with a smiling face.
After all the introductions and making my intentions known to them I like to marry their daughter.

my girlfriend called me on phone yesterday that she's coming over, which she did and start saying that her elder bro and her mum is kicking against our marriage. i asked why? she said because am an Ssce holder.

yes I might be an Ssce holder, but am self employed doing well for myself (I noi de beg to chop) isn't that enough.

can't an Ssce holder marries a bsc, msc or a phd holder.
why the discrimination towards a brother because of a white man education?
because of a white sheet of paper.

What is unfortunate about it? I will not like my daughter to bring home some half educated fellow. Marriage should afford one the opportunity to move up the social lader of life not the other way round. Beside, such marriage can be dangerous. Bros, move on to your fellow SSCE. Mtchew!

How many Nigerian scientists for naija don find cure to malaria and other drugs? Oga, I'm a scientist and I tell you categorically, university for naija na confirmed scam. Na just opportunity to get job the degree dey for. If I get Obi Cubana money, if I go university, make my leg break

dawnomike:
Let that motivate you to upgrade your educational background or find a lady whose family will not have problem with your education.

Lists just say he’s not rich enough to guarantee the financial security they want. It has little to do with his educational level unless it’s obvious he’s a not sound or literate enough.

I think they are looking for financial or job security for their daughter or who she marries. With ur level of education if u are actually working and working for Sm1 what happens if u leave there? Getting another better paying job on that level in these hard times will be next to impossible unless it’s a job description/sector that looks for experience and skill over skol qualification/degree.
