My elder sister has been living with her fiance for more than 15 years and they had 5 kids my sister is an Igbo while her fiance was a Dalta man they both moved from Benin Edo State to Ondo State, about 3 or 4 months back the man went on a traveling work outside Benin unfortunately he died and our people said that the man's people must perform the marital right before their son can be buried otherwise the kids will never be theirs they did the traditional right and buried him peacefully.
That was soo wise and helpful for the children and the wife. I love such traditions.. Here in Kenya we've neglected our traditions. may your inlaw rest in peace 🙏
So you are married to a dead person 😮. How do you go your separate ways in order to remarry? These things can hunt you for a lifetime. You are now bonded for life with a dead person. A familiar spirit can immediately enter you and live your life for you. You no longer have control of you. I hope you all know the spiritual implications of these things? That's why it is better to marry than to live outside God's promises for his children. Smh 😢
This happened to my mum,she lived with my dad,he didn’t pay her bride price even after giving birth to seven of us,she died from a heart attack and her people said my dad must pay her bride price and everything. He did tho,he loved her soo much even as little I was then I saw how they loved each other,well 13 years later he joined her😢 they left us all alone in this cold world, the pain is will always there we just have to learn how to live with it.
It's true 👍 we Ghanaians if a man didn't pay the bride price of a woman and she dies,the man will perform the marriage rite before the body will be buried. It's just a punishment to the man for taking someone's daughter for free and it will also set as an example to other men who are living with women without marrying them. The Ghana 🇬🇭story is true 👍
It is similar in some of the cultures in Zim. If you stay with someone daughter without paying bridal price. When their daughter passes on, they will ask the man to pay the bridal prize. Otherwise, he will bury the woman with his family.
Daniel I'll rather serve even more yrs than marrying a dead body. This world is extremely spiritual than physical. Marrying dat dead body is a beginning of darkness
Greetings to you Daniel I just wish to congratulate you for keeping me abreast with happenings in Africa thank you very much you are a great researcher keep up
Most men don’t understand that marriage must not be about having the whole money in the world before getting married. One can get married with what they have and invite just few witnesses and that all and not inviting the world. I hope our mentality changes.
Daniel...if you can, do a follow up on the men who had a post-humous marriage with a dead girl,...their follow up experiences are not as plain as u think......Life is very deep and spiritual.
This is more common than we think especially in Igbo land. In the 90s, a friend of my dad accidentally killed a mad woman on the highway, the man was forced to perform marriage rites on the dead woman. The man did all the rites but refused for the family to bury her in his village and compound.
Amen if my family was African i pray my brothers will never have to go through this kind of distructive culture i pray they will marry a woman outside of Africa
Traditions are strong...my question is after the marriage with the dead girl/ woman. Is there a way to divorce her? Can this man marry another lady without consequences...no haunting by the first wives spirit 🙆🏾♀️🤔
Please ladies don't insult yourself worth by following a man and giving birth to his kids without a marriage License He can simply break up with you after you give birth multiple times and marry someone else. You can't sue him, you are not his wife.
why is everything y.all talking about is what a men have to give y.all money ain't all God is more than life itself y.all believe y.all could pay y.all way into heaven know y.all can't loved is beautiful straight from the heart in the eyes of God
@@timothyblack7476we are Africans and in Africa...a man is supposed to marry a woman and not a woman marrying a man....if you are not ready to marry better stay single than to use someone's daughter in your house....period
Where I come from, the man will marry the "grave" and still go to jail for murdering her. The men who remain free after marrying the "grave" are those who would have had no hand in her death.
If a man lives with a woman as his wife without fulfilling the traditional marriage rites, when she dies he has to fulfil those before burial. This is what I know to be normal. "Kuroora guva", meaning marrying the "grave".
I concur. can't bury someone daughter as wife or mother of your children without 1st doing the marriage rites before the burial rites if they weren't married.
All that na story. All those rubbish tribal cultures that makes no senses in nigeria that we prioritizes over being educated morally, academically and constitutionally. Rubbish. D rubbish dead body go wake up again abi?🤬😂🇳🇬
I have said it if u don’t want stress u can have court marriage because traditional marriage is always expensive for some people to pay the bride price if u feel u cannot manage opt for court marriage and have a reception for both families to celebrate this has worked well for some people in my country
@vickynketia7511 people cohabit, but through the cohabitation period, the promise of marriage can be breached by one party ( men in situations like this). That's why we say a man has taken advantage of a woman.
In the case of Ifeanyi, if they'd waited for the Autopsy report, he'd most likely gone to jail. It'll be too late to now settle the case with the girlfriend's family, the Police would've been forced to prosecute Ifeanyi!
I feel that it may look simple to marry the dead for freedom but i think... marrying the dead is the cage itself...it may look fine now but in future its really a form of captivity
After the marriage the family will still wash your hands off so you go and marry another person in peace, the tradition of washing spirit hands off from the man usually done at midnight...so it's tradition
It happened in part of Kenya if the woman and man stay long without do the marital right and accidentally the woman die and maybe the man claims to buried her in his land he will have to do the right thing by pay bride price...😢😢😢God have mercy upon our life ...but pastor emeka that was not fair he was supposed to go jail
It is compulsory in my place in Delta state, if not she will not be laid to rest. My friend's mom corpse is still in d morgue since November last year because the father doesn't have money to pay her dowry yet.
The men my sister had 2 kids with died and his people had to preform the marital rights before they could berry him. This happened in Suriname South America
Well, I think marrying a lady who lived with you for a long time and acted as a wife deserves a marital rites to ensure her soul is well respected in the afterlife. It shows you love her and appreciated her efforts in being with you cohabitating... I don't see anything bad in it unless you never loved her and was just using her as a plaything.
There is more to this so called freedom than meet an ordinary eye. They all are in spiritual bondage of the dead. Their dead partners will never leave them alone untill they die. That is the spiritual inmplecation.
My mom died when i was 13 years old & my father was asked to pay some money because when my mom was alive he didn’t marry her so in other for him to fully have me as his daughter he was supposed to pay some amount of money before my mom could be buried but i believe he didn’t So in my case now if i have a suitor who wants to marry me, then my bride price will not be paid to my father rather it will be paid to my mom’s people because my father didn’t marry my mother before she died
It's when humans do the opposite of what God says, that they do what they do. God said you should marry a woman before you live with man decides to marry them when they are death. God said after death you can remarry,but man decides to marry the death. Oh
Wonderful so marriage can be exchanged in place of going to prison for committing a crime,pls does this happen anywhere else or only in nija?i am speechless
Okay, if you kill someone, it’s the states case. Even if the family of death forgive you….. the state should charge you…. The family can forgive for their peace and for them to move on in peace. This pastor should not be free.
"like someone ruling the country and you refuse to call him the president". We saw what you did there. Stray bullet still meet Obidense for their çorner. Lol
I go battle with the law but I can not marry a dead body. Can someone tell me the interpretation of this marry the dead ritual??? Because if it was for money, then they can ask for x 10 the dowery! Why why make someone to marry the dead! Wicked! wicked practices😢
Better do the rites to avoid stories. Unless you have strength to do continues follow up later. Outside the normal igbo culture,some families go ahead to do things that can hunt generations later. Please always respect tradition.

Tradition must go on
Ghana narration was real
Enough luv frm Ghana 🇬🇭
Some traditions are in need of being dissolved. Women don’t live with any man who has not married you
MEN dont let à woman live with you for FREE , if she says it does not matter INSIST it MATTERS !!!

But people should just marry before one dies

Marry her if you love her

The marriage and divorce rites are done the same day
You marry and do burial rites....which means the Union is disengaged by death.
Yes he can remarry after mounting his wife.
He becomes a husband and a widower in the same day! 😮
Exactly why, doing the needful at the right time is the best option
Why didn't the second guy's mom force her son to go and pay her bride price wen she was alive
I was asking the same question
I wonder
Ask again my dear ….now that she’s dead he now has money abi
The number 4 Ghanaian story, why didn't the mother encourage the son to marry the woman the whole 9 yrs that passed. She's so inconsiderate abeg
My dear some parents they don't encourage there sons to get married.

😂😂😂😂 Church agbasaa 🤣
Behave yourself jah jah
Oh, my goodness 🥲🥲🥲 thanks Daniel
The meaning of what he did is that his soul is tied to that of the dead girl. Her spirit will continue to follow him any where he goes.
Good job Daniel pls can you be subtitleing it word for word
Msy Allah help us all,i felt it for chioma what a wicked pastor 🥺😞
Pastor Emeka supposed to go to jail
Pastor must go 50 years in jaiil
Pastor must go in jail without food and water.
Where I come from, the man will marry the "grave" and still go to jail for murdering her. The men who remain free after marrying the "grave" are those who would have had no hand in her death.
Where I come from bride price would be paid
😮😮😮 Jesus
As it should be
I can't imagine myself killing someone I love or hate.....so that question is not for me.....I can't become what I don't think about or imagine
I have been waiting for a video from you, that I almost got worried😅
If a man lives with a woman as his wife without fulfilling the traditional marriage rites, when she dies he has to fulfil those before burial. This is what I know to be normal. "Kuroora guva", meaning marrying the "grave".
I concur. can't bury someone daughter as wife or mother of your children without 1st doing the marriage rites before the burial rites if they weren't married.

Wise thing to do? This is 2023, illiterate!!
How is it wise?
Thank God I'm out Cameroonian a constitution forbids marrying a corpse no matter what reason.

Interesting stories, the last story in my view would definitely be due to financial constraints. Thanks for sharing
Who is the founder of this Tradition 😢
How can you marry the dead
Omo stay away from adultery and fornication 😢
That how it been done by igbos
I have said it if u don’t want stress u can have court marriage because traditional marriage is always expensive for some people to pay the bride price if u feel u cannot manage opt for court marriage and have a reception for both families to celebrate this has worked well for some people in my country
In ghana i know some fantes still hold on to this practice. It's to deter men from just taking advantage of women without marrying them.
I don't think it's a man taking advantage of women, why, moving in with a man who has not paid your bride. price yet?
@vickynketia7511 regardless of that question you are asking people still move in together, it's happening all over the world.
@vickynketia7511 people cohabit, but through the cohabitation period, the promise of marriage can be breached by one party ( men in situations like this). That's why we say a man has taken advantage of a woman.
@tl3482 even in some cases, cohabition can be legally binding.

Please is not right, where in the bible has anyone ever heard marriage with the dead......God have mercy on us
That is why one needs to be careful
The bible condemned sex before marriage not to talk of living together, so they got it all wrong from the start.

Glad he married her

She deserves it❤
The pastor should have gone to jail for murder. It feels like the family of the girl valued the title "Mrs" more than their daughter. So sad 😢😢😢
That's their traditions demand, going to jail will be left to the government!
Putting someone behind bars will not bring back the dead 😢... for their peace thy had to do what will give them peace
Same with the Fantse tribes in Ghana
Marrying a girl after death is also done in our area They pay bride price and carry the corpse home
😮
Where's that?
They have not jam crazy family like my own before. They will continue. To wait for
bride price. Until they get tired,
@@vickynketia7511then your brother would be resting in jail then!
So when they marry the dead body they won’t marry another woman?
The first story was sad, indeed he will never succeed in life after a crime like that.,(he was indeed cheating 😂😂😂)
It happened in part of Kenya if the woman and man stay long without do the marital right and accidentally the woman die and maybe the man claims to buried her in his land he will have to do the right thing by pay bride price...😢😢😢God have mercy upon our life ...but pastor emeka that was not fair he was supposed to go jail
Pst Emeka should have gone to cell atleast 2to 3 yrs
So Daniel is asking whether someone will rather choose the physical or the spiritual punishment 😊
It is compulsory in my place in Delta state, if not she will not be laid to rest. My friend's mom corpse is still in d morgue since November last year because the father doesn't have money to pay her dowry yet.
The men my sister had 2 kids with died and his people had to preform the marital rights before they could berry him. This happened in Suriname South America
Really?
Well, I think marrying a lady who lived with you for a long time and acted as a wife deserves a marital rites to ensure her soul is well respected in the afterlife.

There is more to this so called freedom than meet an ordinary eye. They all are in spiritual bondage of the dead. Their dead partners will never leave them alone untill they die. That is the spiritual inmplecation.

After they get married to the dead, when/ how do they break up or divorce them?
It’s so many couples in the US living together and unmarried… Here they rather play married then to actually be married smh sad but true.
Becoming widowers out of choice. They chose their freedom anyway, but the late.ladies would never get to enjoy any😢.

Can someone tell me the interpretation of this marry the dead ritual??? Because if it was for money, then they can ask for x 10 the dowery! Why why make someone to marry the dead! Wicked! wicked practices😢
It is a tradition in Igbo land.
Then don't live with a woman forever without paying a bride price
Let people do the right thing then!
Just becareful not to be involved in such situation..sometimes until you are in the situation you better understand the whole drama..
Better do the rites to avoid stories.
Unless you have strength to do continues follow up later.
Outside the normal igbo culture,some families go ahead to do things that can hunt generations later.
Please always respect tradition.
