PHOTOS; See An Igbo Community Where Women Marry Women Anioma, a Delta-Igbo community in Nigeria prides in her age-long culture that crowns the Omu Anioma- a traditional title to a woman, the culture permits an Omu to marry a woman or as many women of her choice. The twist here is that her wife (she is the man in the marriage) is allowed to marry or consort a man of her choice and they both procreate and bear children for the Omu. Most people ask, does the Omu have sexual intercourse? https://reportdesks.com/index.php/2020/12/04/photos-see-an-igbo-community-where-women-marry-women/ History says the tradition of crowning an Omu is from Benin, Igara. Omu means palm front, which connotes fertility hence the stool of the Omu was constituted. Omu stands as Eze Nwanyi, female king in charge of women, female youths, markets, ancestral shrines, businesses. Delta communities that practice the omu system include Abala, Utchi, Aniocha, Oshimili, Nsukwa , Igodo, Ukwuani, Ubulu-Uku among others. Igbodo communities differ in their approach as they appoint a council of Omu made up of several Omu and a head. https://reportdesks.com/index.php/2020/12/04/photos-see-an-igbo-community-where-women-marry-women/

I've been singing it like psalms here and some Christians have made it a point of duty to insult me. Any Igbo against female gay marriage doesn't know his root. Its not just in western Igbo land but all. Women have been marrying women in Igboland for ages before the missionaries came and abolished it, only to turn around and legalize it in their land and call it civilization. By the way, you cheap bloggers like reportdesk should lie with caution. Omu is in no way related to Bini and Igara. Even the word "omu" meaning "palm frond" is Igbo. Chai! What do you cheap bloggers wish to accomplish with such assertion? Below is the real description of Omu https://re-entanglements.net/omu-of-okpanam/ 3 Likes

It’s an ancient tradition. The women are allowed to have sex with any men they want but they marry other women. It’s was only permitted for titled women though. (See the feather on her cap) 1 Like |

Jashub:A woman marrying a woman is not lesbianism, it does not mean sexual encounter it means the female husband to get a man who will get the woman pregnant more like surrogacy |

If this is true then it must be abolished. It is a bad culture and reflects the opposite of our norms as enlightened and God-believing Africans. Not all cultures are founded on the right principles, like killing of twins, sacrificing people for dead kings etc. We just have to keep changing these things cos "culture" could be either good or bad. |

Bkayyy:Oga what these people do and gaysim are two entirely different things. I have seen where this happened, a woman has only one son and the son died at young age so the woman got him a wife. The wife is to sleep with another man outside just to give the boy's mother children. Then there are some rich women who marry other women to raise kids for themselves to continue their lineage. The difference here is that these wives sleep with men outside(some are arranged) to have children. They don't sleep or have any kind of intercourse with the women that married them. How is this same with today's same sex marriage? |
