Igbo bashing has become quite a common thing in Nigeria such that it has become normal to bash Igbo on every single thing, even on things that are meaningless.

You created this thread to ask why Igbo prefer to marry from their tribe. Are you really serious? This is a question you opened this thread for looking for 'answers'? Would you have opened this very thread in the first place had a Yoruba or Hausa guy been the one who preferred to marry from their tribe? Yes or No? Why would a Yoruba parent reject a non-yoruba suitor, and that will not be an issue. In fact, such action is justified. A Hausa parent will do the same and no dust will be raised about it. But when an Igbo parent does the same, then its a big deal. It is a serious issue that calls for serious attention and criticism, then you begin to get tags like ''Igbos are 'tribalistic'', 'they are 'selfish'', it is an 'Igbo problem' e.t.c. Minor issues that aren't issues when done by other tribes become a serious issue when Igbo is involved.

I look around me, majority Ibibios marry within the Ibibio tribe, majority Hausas marry within Hausa, Yoruba within Yoruba, why should the Igbo marrying within themselves even be a question in the first place? Despite the level of inter marriage between whites and blacks here in the US, majority whites marry within whites, chinese within chinese, blacks within blacks, and you're going to sit there and tell me that it is a problem when Igbos prefer to marry Igbos?? Like seriously??

I get your point about love being the most important factor between 2 people from different tribes and there are marriages between Igbo men and non-Igbo women however majority Igbos don't need to look outside for love when they can find it within themselves. The same love you mentioned as important, Igbo men get it from within the tribe. Why look outside? What about culture preservation and values? Why should Igbo preferring to marry from within even be an issue in the first place when other tribes are doing the same? Is the creation of this thread even justified in the first place?

Igbo people are tribalistic, they are evil, they love money, yet you want to marry them? Seriously?

Tomorrow you're going to open another thread asking 'Why do Igbo people speak Igbo?' Like seriously??

Moses married an Ethiopian woman in the Bible, yet he still spoke to God one on one, and received the 10 commandments from His hand.

Bros, a little knowledge is a dangerous thing oh...

Neplusultra:
Was it not d same Ethiopian woman called Keturah dat was fighting Moses and calling him a useless man?!

gracefams:
. Please ignore the sissy,most of their men behaves like women, they think they can bully and manipulate people, just drop your opinions about them and leave them to start whining .

waternogetemeny:


If Abraham never married the Egyptians then boko haram and isis will never exist. Sarah was a fellow Israelite.

Inter-tribal marriage is not endorsed by God. I don't even want to start with Samson and Delilah. Solomon and how his foreign wife's turned him away from God to idols. The bible said: Marry from your tribe for maximum peace of MIND.

JoeCutie:
The answer is very simple: They love marrying from their tribe. Period.

Igbo girls amaka.

laudate:


Even when husbands and wives come from the same hamlet, they fight themselves. So is that anything new

Apart from that, there is only 1 recorded account of a disagreement between them in the bible. It had to do with the circumcision of their son, i believe.

This one Nigeria shit is getting into our brain from the back door.
It's all a ruse.

My culture can not vanish, my traditions must live till eternity.

I can't be speaking English in my home and to my in-laws.

If am gone, my kids must know dia root, they must not vanish in thin air.
@op, u and ur friends no see urobo people go date?

Am in warri, when u say a hi to an urhobo chick, she hears ur accent, next question she ask is, re u igbo? The zoom she goes to dat a barber or a valgnizier. And the end of the day she's not married after all.

If igbo guy date dem for 3 months, dey cry foul.
Wen dia people will keep dem in his hut for 10 year as gf without even knowing dia parents, dem go hide dia sins and bring igbo people own all out.

You know that Anita is a full-blooded Igbo girl from Oguta in Imo State, don't you?

laudate:


Nobody is saying you should not marry from your tribe. All that is being said is that if you know you have no intention of marrying from outside your tribe, then DO NOT date anyone from outside your tribe or lead them on to think you have good intentions, only to turn round stylishly to dump them with some silly excuse!

Read Ishilove's post. It makes a lot of sense.

Also, for thise who keep citing Biblical pieces to justify their position, then please note that there are still Jews that married outside their race. e.g. Joseph who married an Egyptian princess, and Boaz that married Ruth, who was from Moab. And all those Biblical conditions existed in the old testament. Those conditions were given to prevent the non-believers from polluting the faith & religion of the Israelites.

In the new testament, those who believe in our Lord Jesus Christ and His work on the cross for their salvation have all become children of God by faith. So, those distinctions about not marrying from other tribes in order not to pollute their religion, would not exist.

Hope this clarifies the issue!

elipheleh:


Your ugliness reach high heavens. Hmm and which unfortunate man impregnetaed you to marry you?
I guess a gorilla! Huh.
You are one hell of a shit and make sure you don't give birth to creatures like you. just operate solely on abortions. The world need to be rid of things that look like you. Idiotic Ye-roober

No wonder youve spent almost 1 whole month on NL from 2014 till now looking for love....Stay here while real people with worth meet in real world.
Ugly shit

dovelike:

Wow.She is? Lola must be feeling intimidated somehow

Neplusultra:
Yes, u made sense, but I still reiterate dat tribea shud marry deir tribes. Its biblical and I know of cases wia it wrecked a lot of havoc, Peace.

somegirl1:


She is. I don't know where people got the notion that she is not Igbo.

laudate:


And I have explained why such biblical reasons no longer apply to people who have given their lives to the Lord Jesus, as the fear of idolatry or pollution of religion which formed the grounds for such conditions in the first place, would no longer apply!!

byrron:


Y not wait until the alleged igbo guy dumps ur friend and marry an igbo lady before bringing this up since u are so sure that ur friend will be dumped when it has not even happened simply because she Is yet to be proposed to by the igbo guy.

Who even told you that all relationship must lead to marriage?

Am fulfilled on every side,I added love to my username cos there's so much love in my life n family.Sorry to disgrace u,go get a life.From this moment,u're officially ignored & confined to the gutters

So are u trying to say dat if u marry from another tribe u guys won't understand yourselves? I believe dat what keeps a relationship long lasting is love and respect nd come think of it it's high time anambra men dat reason like you change their notion about marrying from their tribe because u think u'll understand her better .my dear if dats ur reason for getting married from ur tribe,den I'm sorry u 'll miss it.Haven't u seen married couple of d same tribe living as cat nd mice? Tribe shouldn't be a barrier for d choice of a life partner.Ask God for direction nd wisdom.

The word "love" you added to your username is to console yourself. At daylight take a mirrow and gaze properly on your kinda face and look intently you may notice what I am saying. G The truth be told is that you are ugly and make sure you don't let your child pass through life rejected as you experienced. Go to sperm bank and get a handsome fair guy's gene and see if you can atleast give your daughter a fighting chance.

You should be really ashamed of a face like yours with all the tear tear marks, fat face, nasty black complexion, dirty looking teeths and smoke stained black gums and teeth...Oops what an ugly race of people. No wonder Ye-robbers are running towards Igbo Ladies to rub off their preetttiness leaving all their women to the monkies. And yet your kind are not grateful to feel associated with beautiful Igbo tribe on this forum. Ingrates! Shit

laudate:


Bros, I don't think you know the whole story. When did Paul Okoye marry Anita? Wasn't it after their mum passed away?

Was their union formalised when their mum was alive?

When did Peter Okoye marry Lola Omotayo? Wasn't it after he lost his mum?

If her character was so bad, how come he opened his eyes and had 2 children with her....
