Back then when my mom was warning me not to go that far when our relationship started She kept on insisting I should go for the girls in my tribe, I thought she was just been a tribalist bigot. If only I had listened

She bore me a son, he's 3years now... though her people knows me well from normal visitation..but I haven't been able to pay her bride price yet due to the hardship this regime has on us. life happened, unfortunately she got sick since February, ever since then from one hospital to another..I took several loans from people for hospital bills to the point of me looking sick myself.so sad for us we lost her last night.

I informed her elder brother who knows about all thats happening, he called me back this morning to tell me that his people told me to be prepared to marry her corpse. He went further and said if I don't pay her bride price, my boy will be taken from me and I should be ready to withstand the consequences.
I was surprised, I called for the burial arrangements not for a marriage ceremony

I blantly told him, I won't, why would I get married to her corpse. He was angry and cut the call on me.

Am more concerned about my son, please lawyer's in the house do they have any right to take my son away from me?
Even if they do am ready to give it to them, but spending money to Marry her corpse I will not.

I only brought this here, if had chance for my son whose still in my custody.

Baba you will marry her corpse. I dey 100% sure say na so Igbos dey do am. I don't know about others

Stone age barbaric tradition. That's why I do not subscribe to live in marriage especially with certain tribes. As horrible as it is, it is their culture.On no account should you marry a corpse.

I love your resolve.

As you recieve a barrage of advice here, note that most Nairalanders have absolutely nothing to offer. Ignore those telling you to go and pay bride price.

The boy is yours and legally there is nothing they can do about it.

Some men just lack sense. Hear yourself. So if that is your sister that is how you will walk to the morgue to go and carry her? Nor worry, dey there dey smart. Your head go soon correct by the time we finish with you.

I have one simple advise for you. Hurry now to the family with either your dad or the eldest man in your family or anybody that can stand in that regard, go with some cash and schnapps.

Take this time now as a matter of urgency to go inform the family officially of the latest about their daughter most especially if this is happening around Delta State.

If you like do, you like refuse.
Definitely delta

Remember child : HE WHO RUNS FASTER THAN THE GODS WILL NEVER STOP RUNNING.

They're not expecting you to kiss the corpse, just pay the bills and fulfill all traditional rites and you'll be innocent of what's coming for you.

Such happened to my uncle around 25 years ago... They met at Benin, she's from Delta, died during childbirth. It was hell for the whole family. I was young then.

My grandfather ( May God rest his soul) had to borrow money from Yoruba association at Benin and my biggest uncle hadto sell his car to finance the whole thing. The debt was so hard for the family.

They did normal wedding ceremony, bought clothes for the father and mother, all rites were completed. Then the family carried the cropse to Delta and asked my Uncle to come and bury his wife. Lol... My uncle was in his early 20s then. It was traumatizing for him.

The family had to hire 2 soldiers because there was rumor that they could harm him. They went and buried her and the child that died with her. Said he must sleep with her, that's when our family declined and hell broke loose.

They sha concluded and came back to Benin in one piece. The experience left a scar in my uncle's heart. Didn't marry on time. He's older than my mom and his first child is just 4.

You don't want to divulge more information, but you want to get advice, (this is not a classified information that can't be divulged) nobody want to turn this to tribal war...

Reason why you were asked, so that people from that tribe, who might have experienced such can advice you accordingly....I don't think that is why he was asking that question

Mr man, I don't know you from Adam but heed this advice :

Since you couldn't marry that lady but have been doing marital people stuff with her until her death. You have to do the needful according to the ladies culture in her village.

This is a vital case and wisdom is profitable. Don't show your bravery here.
it's not needed at all.

Go and discuss, find a lasting solution with the girls family.

Thank you

I said I won't, I can't marry a corpse

Did you do a court wedding? That one is cheap and only require a couple of witness. If you did, your case is simpler in the eye of the law. Secondly, is the birthof the baby registered and does the registration certificate list you as the father?

Go and do the right thing by paying her bride price, you have been with her as a couple to the extent of giving birth for you before the unfortunate happened, go and do the needful and stop acting wise..

Lawyer won't save you here. You can't claim the child, and also be talking about burial rites when you have not paid the bride price of the mother. This is tradition and no one is forcing you. It's not as if you are marrying the corpse. They won't allow you take the child.
