I agree. Just wonder why though.

Rucheen:
Unless as a second wife

Biglittlelois:
Me that can speak haUSA more than my native language yoruba, what's my own with choosing the tribe to marry, as far as there is love and understanding from both parties involved, I'm good, thank God my family has same mindset.

ERORR404:

What if the problem is from the family of the guy?

Biglittlelois:



Funny thing is I never dated anyone from my tribe before and their families never had any reservations concerning where I'm from.

Personally, I can't marry from another tribe.My parents would be displeased.

Pray to find love in your tribe then... If not pleasing others and neglecting yourself never ends well.

ERORR404:

Okay, maybe because you're a good person

khiaa:
Why is it so hard for a lot of you to use the proper words in a sentence? The word LEAVE means to leave something.. for example, I"m going to LEAVE my marriage. The word LIVE means to be alive, to exist for example. I LIVE a good life. Stop switching the words and meaning for goodness sake. Now, as far as the topic is concerned, why do your parents condemn inter-tribal marriages but condone interracial marriages?

ERORR404:
I'm a product of one (North and south,edo to be precise) and i think i may also marry from the South. Do nigerians still shy away from intertribal marriage?

Dacronym:

I am A Product of One Too
Yoruba (SW) and Niger Delta (kwale)

sgtponzihater1:
Run from it. My humble advice from experience.

sgtponzihater1:


Marry from the East, and see them try to wisely drain u and exclude ur family. All the problem of her siblings u must solve, but she'll never ask u of ur own siblings of if u have a plan for them. They come to ur house and make it an Igbo affair, speaking their language to each other while u as the man become the stranger. The list is endless.

Dad was born here in Ibadan 1955 at bode , married a fine woman from lalupon in ibadan >: .

Oh my grand parents are from present day anambra state .


Men the kind of opportunities I have gave me alot of advantages in life.





Is all about the family you are dealing with, not tribe.....

My opinion

IkpuMmadu:
what tribe are you ?

This is the litmus test

IkpuMmadu:
Inter tribal is a no no ...majority fail, those that don't fail end up having confused kids that can't either speak their native language or identify with their fathers tribe

They would say my mum is Igbo And my dad is Yoruba ..such a confusion

stinflame:


Your moniker says it all, so I aren't surprise. Only 10% of people from your region are liberal with inter tribal marriage.

Don't say majority fails, because that isn't true, marriage that is destined to fail even if it's from your clan will fail. We Nigeria really needs to clear of this tribal and region mentality.
I was ashamed of myself a certain day when I asked an American, during a flight take of what region is she from. She replied am an American and that comes first, and ended with I know it's a common practice in Nigeria.

Nothing wrong with inter tribal marriage, am from Ogun a daughter of an Alhaji, I married an Urhobo man which is a pastor. 13 good years and still counting.
