TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE IN AFRICA

In Nigeria there are three different kind of marriage which includes:
1. Traditional Marriage
2. Court Marriage
3. White Wedding (Church/Islamic)

All these three are important to some individual or as many as want to, though; it is not a force for you to either have one or all of the above. But some individual prefer to have all. lol

1. TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE is the local marriage between two individual that may be of the same language or the other way around, it is the most important kind of marriage in Nigeria. This marriage is like giving honor to the Parent of the Bride and at the same time a show of style to the Groom. Africans takes it seriously when it comes to traditional marriage especially the female. The style in this marriage is very flamboyant in dressing and in all activities, in short Africans takes this as the really marriage while respecting the white wedding as respect for God authority over them. In this marriage there is a lot of stylist cloths which the Bride and the Groom wears.

2. COURT MARRIAGE: this is a system of marriage where the bride and the Groom goes to Magistrate Court to register themselves as husband and wife, it is normally of a low key and very important, like nowadays Africans now respect it, and it is of vital important to them, as this is a legal marriage which protect and save guide whatever they will get to in the future. However it is not meant to cheat or oppress the male sex as some develop world countries does. It is something to protect both sides for now. We hope it will not be used in the future to bread wickedness.

3. WHITE WEDDING: this is the church kind of wedding which is normally done in the church with the pastor as the preacher of the day which also wed both sex together as husband and wife, there are no too much difference in this kind of marriage, since it is the same and common around the world.

I believe Africans are great people
