"In the face of all these and more problems, we in Africa, and Nigeria in particular, can have the tendency to view our family situation from the prism of what is prevalent elsewhere."

"Indications therefore emerge that marriage in Africa is bedevilled with so many problems that have not only continued to threaten it as an institution but also, led to her breaking down irretrievably or strained and headed for the rocks."

"This is more so because, when a man is seeking the hand of a woman in marriage in African to be precise, he pretends a lot."

The above are some of the flaws in your claim. Rather than to read your work holistically, i read in between the lines. I am a trained critic so wherever i see some generalization, i will always point it out.

No bad blood, your work seem to see Africans as the problem.

Thanks.
