OILSOUP: Speak for yourself and your pitiful female lineage. As for me and mine. .whether boy or girl, they shall have equal share. If the boy doesn't like it, he should go and till the soil and make his own money for his own children. That is God's assignment for men. Remember that these your same ancestors no allow woman go school to become doctor or banker. We for no get Okonjo-Iweala or Dora Akunyili if we listened to dead and forgotten ancestors... 6 Likes |

OILSOUP:It doesn't matter if from Kebbi. This is Nigeria and one can live anywhere he or she wishes. If I like I move to Chad or Washington DC and will still say am Igbo because that's my Origin. Although, I cannot change where I come from but I can choose where I wanna be and belong. Truth is always bitter. |

Seriously i am very ashamed of Igbo people. How can they allow this kind of ancient backward culture to survive till date in this modern 21st century? Igbos are the greatest hypocrites i have come across in this life. These are the same igbos who will be quick to castigate the Hausas for their laws against women. Shame on these people called Igbos and they claim to be the most educated and enlightened people in Nigeria. Useless loud-mouthed imbeciles. |

chiamaka21:Ammie nwa are you seeing what am saw? This Igbo boys calling us temporal being are still the ones who can't keep their acclaimed permanent home in order. No wonder they can never do without the UMUADAS in igbo land and most judgement cannot be ruled without involving the women folks when it is really tough.

Young03:Aru gini? What is wrong if a daughter has a share in her father's properties? Did she not come out from the same loins as the son? You want tell me you have not seen a daughter who has made good use of her inheritance or a daughter who has helped her husband or family with it? Even with our igbo culture we acclaim we fail to work together or even help one of our own, because of greed we cannot tell ourselves the truth. Biko there is no abomination if your sister have a share in your father's properties if she is wise and productive. Dalu! 2 Likes |

TonyeBarcanista: TonyeBarcanista(m): 9:13pm On Oct 08 That is y we have customary court, just becos it is practiced in Ijawland does not make it right and mandatory that it must be followed by Igbos who have their own customary law. I am glad u noted Nigeria Judiciary is miserable, u should also note that most of your judges are not properly educated about the mechanism of the legal system. Most of their decision are ultra vires decision. Certain things should not be celebrated as a landmark development when it is actually a step backward. |

alfarouq: Don't mind these crude little igbo savages. They are the most uncivilised people but their mouths are so wide to insult hausas and yorubas as backward people. These people are such annoying hypocrites. Imagine a culture that so much victimizes widows. Imagine a case where a woman is widowed and she is forced to drink the water used to bathe her late husband corpse just to prove her inocency. What kind of madness could be more than that? 2 Likes |

deliveryboy: Honestly, Nairaland is finished. Full of jaundiced comments.... Imagine the fellow commenting in caps turning a Fundamental Human Right issue to a tribal issue. The freedom from discrimination is guaranteed by Chapter 4 of the Constitution and by relevant Global instruments. I mean, The Supreme Court was constituted by 7 Judges in this case and people here have conveniently made Justice Vivour the scapegoat cos he read the leading Judgment. The Archaic and highly degrading tradition cannot stand anywhere, so there's no point arguing the fine points (which are non existent). And its also funny cos majority of the tribal bigots here have almost nothing to inherit . 1 Like |

kishimi8:Don't mind that one he is a lazy cow. With such mentality I pity his sisters. That's why some Igbo women who are frustrated in marriage fears to seek divorce and go back home rather she remains, suffer abuse and eventually die in the process because if she returns home the tigers and lions called men and so called heirs will mock and frustrate them even further for the fear that she might partake as gift for her upkeep from that which is left for them to share.

Can u go and drag property with them in their husband house? Igbo women these days that cannot stand her husband family merely visiting are talking about sharing property with them and possibly living permanently with them. Abeg reason properly joor! 1 Like |

OILSOUP:No qualms but... Glory to God. Actually this October marks exact 12years of Dad's demise and his soul is sure resting in peace because there's no battle of who owns this or that... Thanks to my big brother for his fatherly role who believes in giving everyone the best and mostly empowering we the female children. He ain't greedy and I need no land but stores and a house for rental purposes is not bad for the girls even businesses for her to manage. All of us four siblings are best in supporting each other and that's the more reason our mama is still alive and smiling. All I am saying is that Igbo male folks should be more considerate to their daughters with regards to distribution of things inherited. . Your sister may be the one to look after your children tomorrow when you are no more much better than your brother because women naturally thinks of home and families and cared so much of their own more than men so don't hurt your sisters because of things money can buy. No one knows tomorrow. K' odiri anyi n'mma isie.. 3 Likes |

OILSOUP:oga my husband is my husband and that which he toiled for and got for himself with the help of God with I as a witness and possibly a contributor no woman or man from his family will come dragging when I have his children to take care of even with out children. Secondly, any issue concerning him and his sisters over their father's belonging say considered their own family matter which I may not directly have a say in but can privately advise my husband. Even the divorced given a share depends on what she meets after her return otherwise if there's nothing left unshared she can be supported willingly. Also going to drag anything with a woman in her husbands house is utterly out of questions. What for? And where was the person when those things were being gotten? Imagine some thieves who hate to visit North but when their kinsmen returns from a journey from the north they are the first to line up in his as early as 6a.m to collect gift of beans, onion, kuli kuli etc as if you owe them. Also when death occurs they want to inherit the wealth he made from a foreign land neglecting his children. OILSOUP I KNOW DAMN TOO WELL WHAT AM TALKING ABOUT OK? AM NOT JUST BLABBING FOR ARGUMENT SAKES.... I have walked through this way ok? But guess what? We won! #fuckAllTheVulturesWaitingToFeastOnIheritancesWithoutMakingEffortToAchieveTheirs# 1 Like |

There's what I don't understand here,if the supreme Court has such powers to rule customary laws,what is it waiting to rule on Sharia courts that allows a thief's hand to be amputated when caught in crime?

Gifthappy: Gifthappy So it is fair to conclude that Igbo women want same share in their father property as the boyz? Does this include ancestral property? Once ur father dies are u lot going to sell everything so u can share? Or will the girls relocate from their husband state to live on ancestral land in their father state? I am keeping an open mind and listening. |
