Bianca Ojukwu again
The object of Yoruba obsession,I hear you

On this forum alone how many stories of Yoruba actresses having babies out of wedlock have we read?
How many of a woman trying to pin a bobo to her pregnancy
How many of doubtful paternity
How many of children emerging in their tens after the death of a man
You don't have to search deep
That scares Igbos
I am not saying such things are unheard of in Igboland but the degree is incomparable and it is heavily frowned at in our culture
A child born out of wedlock in Igboland belongs to the woman's family
It is a huge shame to that family
That is why illegitimate belle is hidden
But Yorubas flaunt it and announce it and throw parties to celebrate the arrival of the baby sired by a married man and born out of wedlock
A married Yoruba woman will wear asho ebi to the naming ceremony of her husband's mistress's baby and the man's people will be there eating jollof rice and dancing owanbe
That is an alien culture to us
That is one of the reasons our people are fearful of our girls marrying Yoruba men
Marriage means something different between the two groups

In Yorubaland a mistress with a baby automatically elevates to the status of wifehood,na lie?
Not so in Igboland
A mistress is hidden and the man does all he can to make sure no baby arrives ,because he doesn't want to shame his family
That is a huge cultural difference and many of our women have married Yoruba men who ended up with babies all around town down the road because it is their culture.his dad and uncles and grandpa did it freely.
It is not our accepted tradition

Shebi una wan hear the whole truth why Igbos don't like to marry Yoruba
Sorry if it hurts but that is the gospel truth
Your family dynamics are very complicated to Igbos

babyosisi: There is something in an Igbo man that makes him adore Igbo women
We understand them and they understand us
My two first bobos were Yoruba ( they were very good to me by the way) but when it came to marriage,I still preferred an Igbo man too.
Three times I had tried to matchmake some folks
The moment I mentioned the woman was Yoruba,without even seeing a picture,the men lost interest including a girl whose mom was Igbo and father Yoruba.
One of the guys I was matchmaking with my school daughter,a physician ,I called him one day to start the show and his mother was on the background asking " Juo ya ma o nwere Onye Igbo doctor o ma"
( ask her if she knows an Igbo female doctor ) hahahaha
I tried to set up my older cousin with my Yoruba friend but he couldn't get over her tribe
Igbo men prefer Igbo women no doubt and have broken many hearts and when they venture out they prefer to look towards Calabar side or Rivers and Igbo/ Igboid parts of Delta.We are similar in many ways.
Igbos are family oriented and prefer cultures where the family unit in strong
Yorubas are very polygamous and promiscuous and their men and women freely have kids out of wedlock,they have complicated backgrounds so an Igbo man is fearful that a woman from such a background will not be good enough to raise a lasting family with.
That is one of the reasons
The other reason is the distrust after the civil war
The third reason is the notion that they use juju to tie a man in that culture( because of the promiscuity).That scares our Igbo men
No Igbo mother will happily agree to a non Igbo daughter in law ,there is always some convincing the man has to do.

PAGAN 9JA:



If you are calling your culture, one of barbaric savagery, then I can only pity you.

please dont embarass Igbos further.

I wish igbo royal fathers banish you from Igboland. wahala you are a disgrace.

Yes I am Pagan. My priest won't make such outlandish claims. It is not done in our religion. we only sacrifice small fowl and kola and other natural plant produce and alcohol.

Infact my priest won't even make any claims. He just does his job of looking after shrine duties as we have done for ages.


IF Igbos have not produced any woman ruler, then it is your own patrilineal ways of doing things, but dont blame it on religion.

Pagan religions are independant of customary law.

The rest of the Pagan world was already producing scores of female rulers.

coogar:

upgrade your cognitive reasoning.

since tribe is the most important for you - i am asking you a question where you have only 2 options to either marry a gentleman from another tribe or a miscreant from your own tribe........which of them would you marry, it's a hypothetical statement...no offence given.

Gracious10:

This is very true and touched all areas.
My friends Dad had to dissuade her from marrying a Yoruba man by showing her the machete marks and cuts he got from the biafran war. He wouldn't even set eyes on the Yoruba suitor.

coogar: .

Radoillo: Why do people pick a pan-Nigerian problem and make it seem like a specifically Igbo problem?

People instinctively want their children to marry from within their culture group.

babyosisi: [size=18pt]but the very rich Yoruba inlaws are always welcome
[/size]

We can manage those ones
If person must eat frog let it be one with berra adipose tissues

babyosisi:

Glad you didn't deny anything in the post and your folks agree
I just laid out the differences in our culture,the reason why Igbos are not very accepting of Yoruba spouses
The cultural differences are plenty

PAGAN 9JA:


It is BECAUSE you are Igbo that I cant take your word seriously, especially if you are christian. (you are christian yes?)


see the ignorance first-hand of many Igbos on this thread.

ngozievergreen:

U are the one to be cured of cerebral palsy.
y didn't u ask me to choose btw a gentleman from my tribe and a miscreant from another?

knights Templer:
^^^^^

That's not want she saying, you simpleton.

Until you know how to read and comprehend, shut the fück up, learn to take a shower, and find someone else to breed out the ugly from your gene pool.

babyosisi: Having said all this ,if my daughter,my pride and joy comes home one day with a good Yoruba man of Ghanaian sef,God knows I will give her my blessings
If she likes sef make she marry Oyibo,as long as they are happy,I will be happy but if you asked my preference for her,definitely Igbo
Being sincere

coogar:

cos that option would be a no brainer, you numbskull. did you skip logic classes in school? the question was only testing if you would compromise on your igbotic love & you still failed to see the point.




until your father learns withdrawal method or the proper usage of condom, we would continue to have airheads like yourself belched out of the vagïna of a village witch.




i am sure you didn't type that with a straight face. your blessings my foot! a woman as tribalistic as yourself will not give your daughter to a yoruba man.

say the truth & shame the devil!!!

50calibre: One major reason Igbos ( and other tribes too ) prefer to marry from their tribe, is difference in culture. It's really hard for two people of different backgrounds & cultures to bond, there are so many challenges to overcome.

It's a fear of breaking from routine, [s]most old fashioned Igbo families want their sons & daughters to marry from their tribe, it's what they are used to, it's what they know.

An Igbo guy would probably want to his wife to be able to communicate in Igbo, cook Igbo delicacies his mum used to cook, nurture his children in an Igbo way, sing Igbo lullabies for his kids, wear traditional attire like his mum used to wear, integrate into his family with ease like his mum did his dad's[/s] It's nature, everyone want to be with his own kind.

This applies to other tribes as well.

i am sure you didn't type that with a straight face. your blessings my foot! a woman as tribalistic as yourself will not give your daughter to a yoruba man.

say the truth & shame the devil!!!

babyosisi:
Must you abuse people's fathers and mothers
Sheesh

babyosisi:
You should know me by now
If I felt that way,I would have no problems saying so boldly
What can anyone here do to me?
Absolutely nothing

osinachukwu: The answer is simple!

coogar:

so mr ibu is now a yoruba girl? na wa o!!!

babyosisi:

Truth be told,Yoruba men are very romantic
If an igbo man and Yoruba man were chasing an Igbo girl,the Yoruba man will most likely sweep her off her feet
He will spoil her with money,Igbo men are more stingy ( frugal) but Yoruba man will give his whole profit to woo the woman and go borrowing to make her happy.
My brothers will do no such thing
They are good boyfriend material but that is where it ends
When marriage time comes,the girl had better face east for a more meaningful union
A Yoruba man is ready to sit at home after losing his job and be a house husband,he is allergic to hustling
He wants manna to fall from heaven from a federal ministry

coogar:

osinachukwu: yes most yoruba girls look like mr ibu dats y yoruba men don't marry dem dey instead dream of igbo women

knights Templer:
Whimpering in your trademark cowardice as usual lol.

If you have nothing to say, you can go sit in the corner and choke on a hot bowl of buttered d*cks.

Truckpusher: You can actually lie to everyone ,but certainly not to your heart because the very lie you tell people originates from your heart.

Go google up things and see the systemic application of your shameful culture,infact somebody in this thread actually said that she jokingly brought up the issue before her people and that she was seriously rebuked .

Denying the obvious is as shameless as those that carry out such barbaric acts in this 21st century.
