PETE EDOCHIE- KNEELING DOWN TO PROPOSE TO A LADY MEANS HANDING OVER CONTROL TO HER.
Nollywood actor Pete Edochie has condemned the act of getting on one knee to propose marriage. The actor said the western tradition is wrong and it is not a tradition accepted in Igbo.
The actor explained that kneeling down in front of a lady in Igbo tradition means handing over the authority to her. He said it means she would become the head of the family.
According to him, marriage in the Igbo tradition is when a lady gives her husband-to-be wine while kneeling down. He said this tradition signifies that the man has been accepted by the lady as her husband.
