Pete Edochie Advises Men: Don’t Propose To Ladies Kneeling Down

Nollywood actor Pete Edochie has said it is totally wrong for a man to kneel down to propose to a woman.

Edochie gave the advice specifically to men from the Igbo ethic extraction during an interview 

He said it is against the tradition of the Igbos to kneel while proposing to a lady.

According to him, if a man decides to kneel and propose to a woman then he has made her the head of the family.

“Kneeling down to propose to a woman is totally wrong, it is not our lifestyle. Kneeling before a girl in Igbo tradition means you are handing over the authority to her. She becomes the head of the family. Marriage in Igbo tradition is when a lady gives her husband to be wine while kneeling down. What does it signify? That the man has been accepted as the husband of the lady. It is the lady who knees before the husband, not vice versa,” he said in Igbo language.
