Pete Edochie Says Its Wrong For A Man To Kneel Down To Propose

Pete Edochie thinks it is totally wrong for an Igbo man to kneel and propose to a woman before marriage.

The veteran actor made this known during an interview where he got to speak about the Igbo tradition. 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.

There has been a lot of reactions since the video where the veteran actor expressed his views on the men kneeling to propose to a woman.
