Welcome to the Nigerian Wifestyle channel. My name is Traci. I am a 30-something busy Mom, Wife, and young professional. I love to make Mommy, Lifestyle, and Beauty videos with the occasional vlog!
In 2016, I married into a large Nigerian family. Since saying, "I Do!" I find myself engaging in the beautiful struggle of learning all about Nigerian culture while trying to maintain my own Black American culture. My husband and I live in New Jersey with our two beautiful children. SUBSCRIBE to my channel for deep conversations about Nigerian culture, customs, and life as a millennial Mom who wants to have it all while loving all things fancy bright and beautiful.
God bless you I’ve been here with you on your page for 10 minutes now and I’m already feeling like you were brought here to help me transition thank you so very much for putting yourself out there to teach other women who love Nigeria and the men there prepare yourselves thank you for the info sister girl you you are having sent God bless youand
I’ve been talking to a man he knows I have two kids. He’s never asked me for money. We pray on the phone. I’m just so nervous. He slid in my dm on facebook. We’re the same age. He’s not pressed to come here he wants me to come there to visit.
@@NigerianWifestyle you’re videos are very helpful. Been talking for a while hasn’t got a dime from me nor has he asked so far so good. And we video call so at least I know he’s a real person. I’m an extremely cautious person and laughed at to many catfish episodes to be fooled. I wish I knew if there was any Africans already in Michigan or I would choose them as an option instead of out the states. Thank you for reaching out to me in the comments
Hey Sis! I am still around. I started my own law firm and I’m always crazy busy trying to juggle Mom-life, Wife-Life, and business. I miss YT and all the chats. Thank you for thinking of me.
You did well with the sensitization with Nigerian/ africa american marriage. I think this is needed and you did justice to the communication , i so much love ❤️ your show . Any Africa american sigle in this channel? A single , we can get mingle 🤪
My dear sister, Your video is wonderful! I liked and subscribed. Happy married life. God bless you and your family in Nigeria and the USA. Cheers! Cheers my dear!
Sister, culture, and experience is a perspective. It is not always right and wrong. Relationships and marriage are about a desire to love and be loved. True love is only possible when each person is submitted to God. If we follow Jesus Christ, then we will begin to value someone else enough to make the needed sacrifices to see them happy and fulfilled. As Africans, we stand with our black brothers and sisters. Their struggle indeed has been pivotal to our freedom and opportunities. However, be mindful that Nigerians began to come to the United States of America way before civil rights. Our own self-determination struggle back home was also a factor in both our freedom and yours. Nigeria's first president, Nnamdi Azikiwe, popularly known as Zik, graduated from Lincon University in 1930. He got his Masters degree in 1933. Some Nigerians got their university educations even earlier in England in the nineteenth century. I am saying this because we all need to be humble. Many Black Americans have similar misconceptions about Africans that can be equally disconcerting. I find that it's only God that can enable us to see ourselves as well as others from the right vantage point. For me, the bottom line is love.
My nigerian man is a muslim who i think is a scammer. He wants marriage in Nigeria but want me to pay for marriage and apartment want to come to America. He said he will work 2 jobs. He claims hes a stainch Muslim having doubts help
I'll be marrying my Queen she's from Nigeria and yeah the signal is always bad..and my girl loves yam but overall she's just an amazing spirit. Im from Dallas, Tx and ill be headed to Calabar nigeria sometime either in August or September. This is my first ever marriage and hers as well. The only thing I wanted to ask is what are the process of us newly we'd couple in trying to get my wife to the states
I am of Pacific island decent, and your video was just what I needed to understand my handsome Igbo Nigerian man more. I just had to subscribe to your channel. Thank you
I am a proud Black American man and married to a beautiful Nigerian woman from Cross River State. Just takes a bit of patience and appreciation for our cultural differences and a willingness to understand each other.
Thos Gerls we live them to nigeria men,am suching for wormen that dont shout whean tolking,awormen that understard her on brothers,it looks like oll the gerls tolking of nigeria men alon alon we dont see what nigerian is doing to them
You losing yourself and adopting the culture all depends on the kind of family your married into and tribe. As a Nigerian from Rivers state, the Niger Deltas side, no body, I mean no body will shove our culture down your throat, infact you can even influence us with your lifestyle and culture too. Maybe is because we're a multi- lingua state, we try to co- exist, love and accept each other the way we're with our difference 🤷
I have just walked away from a Nigerian who I have been chatting with for 4+ months. He did all those things you described. He had me feeling sorry for him and convinced that he loved me. My daughter kept warning me that he was a fake. I finally woke up and blocked him and got rid of all my social media accounts. Unfortunately he got me for about $2100. I have no desire now to do online dating. BTW I’m 71 and he claimed he was 40 , but looking back I don’t believe he was anywhere close to that age. I realize now the whole thing was a lie. I guess you live and learn. That was a hard lesson.
I just saw this vidoe and is so interesting. Is quite unfortunate we live in a wicked world where trust is dead and the good ones are the ones paying the price. Funny enough is all because of one thing that we all are going to live and DIE ( MONEY). Thanks for spreading the news. We all reap what we sow, you scam people to do away with thier sweat, life always come to us every 10years. Trust me you'll pay real bad, that nothing can save you.
Suggestion! Get your ancestry done - I am quite sure you have Nigeria ancestry. The ancestors work in mysterious ways. Baby gurl probably 90 percent Nigeria since you using percentages.
I am so happy for you. I'm hoping that your law firm will be giving is newly married information on how to get through this process of getting them to the US 😊
If you want to marry to a Yoruba family, greeting and respect is one of the most important part of the culture. My advice is watch your man and do what he does. You are half way into wining.
Dating an online with a Nigerian man for 4 weeks it's been great, he talks romantic all the time, picture songs calls but never dated an African man met him on Facebook going strong for far he lives in Texas trave Canada for job for 6 months. he has 2 sons i have i grown daughter, there is an age difference 60 and 50, he is always concerned about me, and my family seems to like them never ask for money has dent money...
As a Nigerian single man. I am so delighted to see this amazing positive vibes about Nigeria. A lot of our African American people should come visit Nigeria. I assure y'all you gon' love it.
You helped me when I first started dating a Nigerian some tears back. My name is Andrea Lynn Washington. We are still dating went through a few places but, still together.
I met him through his cousin and i noticed him first. Honestly be careful of that as well. They will set you up and will deceive you as well. They will LIE and claim that they've never seen them so happy and in love, they'll pretend to tell you secrets and stories about them to gain your trust. I honestly will just stay by myself because it seems as if all men are trash
Sounds like you’re still hurting. Have you considered therapy? After taking care of yourself and when you’re ready, have the courage to give love another try.
I met my wife online 20 years ago online,she flew to Lagos to marry me and we've been married 18 years and our boys are in the middle and high school .. I love my chocolate Chicago warrior for her bravery in searching me
You are so beautiful in looks, gracious with the use of words and definitely beautiful within. You've just gotten a new subscriber in me. I'm Nigerian and I can say you are more than 90% correct. Only that you are yet to mention the positive sides of getting married to a Nigerian
All i can say is I'm definitely blessed to have my fiancé. He's Igbo Nigerian but from the stories I've heard, the Nigerian men I've met (in both America and Nigeria) he's not the "typical" Nigerian man... I think he was created just for me 😂 and I for him! It's true about him and his food but thankfully he was a chef at his dad's restaurant in high school so he pretty much is responsible for making whatever dishes he desires, I'm not the wife that's "domesticated" (I run several businesses) although I can cook, clean etc we just have an understanding if you want garri and vegetables you can make it yourself sir or if you want your clothes washed and I'm busy you're welcome to wash them yourself (and he does and mine at times) 💁🏾♀️ He also comes from a family of businessmen and women who've created wealth for themselves so I don't experience the begging too often, they actually treat me like a Queen and cater to me when I'm in town (which again is not the normal). Even your views on being an African American woman are so unique to me, I didn't come from the "traditional" black American family so alot of what my grandparents taught me he has similar views about so it didn't seem that different but my grandparents were born in the 1920's so black culture was very different then which leads me to believe most of our slave ancestors definitely came from Nigeria, Ghana, etc 🤔 being an 80's baby but raised by 20's babies definitely turned out to be a different mindset and culture. Ultimately, me and my guy get along because we're both "old souls" but I definitely enjoyed your views, thank you for sharing 🙏🏾 much love🇳🇬🇺🇸#blendednations
Nigerians only look out for themselves....I was in a fraudulent marriage for 8 years...she destroyed my life She was a "celebrity" back in Lagos.....I lost everything fkn with her.....bad move....bad bad move... To my black brothers and sisters .....DONT DO IT ....leave them Africans alone!
