  1. Vice versa! As long as both of them are responsible and carry out their responsibilities just the way God ordained it.

  2. None, marriage should not be a life time thing 😐

  3. It's complex. It's intertwined.

  4. Marriage in Nigeria benefits the men more than the woman whereas, in the western world, it benefits the women more than the men.

    To explain my point, there is a young widow whose husband just passed away last Christmas. After her husband’s funeral, husband’s family (mum, dad and siblings) chased this woman with her 6 children away from their fathers’ 4 story building and insisted that she must go to an oracle to swear that she is not responsible for her husband’s death. ( which woman wants to kill a husband she has 6 children with? How will she cope with the children).

    They have been going through and fro police station, arresting and re-arresting one another. She has no one to go to as she is an orphan.

    Example of western marriage. A childhood friend lost her husband who is a consultant paediatrician, he was 43 when he passed on. They had 2 children together. The hospital as we speak pays the woman more than £2000 every month of widows’ pension. Her husband had a private pension pot and she was also given a lump sum. They have a house both in the village and abroad, she has all the paperwork. The man’s family are upset but they can’t do anything.

    I think Nigeria law on marriage should be revisited. Women are suffering a lot in Nigeria.

    1. Nigeria has an extremely toxic culture towards women. There is patriarchy and there is Nigerian patriarchy.

  5. However we want to look at it, it benefits the both parties equally

  7. no. A woman enters marriage at a deficit. Even a provider husband is expected to just provide.
    A woman often plays multiple unpaid roles, child bearer, chef, cleaner, nanny , therapist, personal assistant, event planner, nurse, emotional manager, and often times financial co-pilot or breadwinner. Altogether, her invisible labour could easily exceeds that of a man without holidays, benefits, or recognition.
    A man may also take on several roles mailny financial provider, home maintenance/handyman and co-parent at best. No wonder the bible said he who finds a wife finds a good thing AND obtains favour from the Lord. I'm sure it's the reason why single women and married men are happiest according to studies.

  9. Marriage benefits the men more in Nigeria and Africa generally.

  10. A good marriage benefits both.
    Only problem there are few good marriages.
    There are more of selfish marriages hailed by the benefiting party as good.
    Hence most hailers of their marriages never say what they do to make it good or what their spouses are benefiting.

    A bad marriage benefits one; usually the woman.
    A worse marriage benefits none.
