well i feel them cuz to me.... my last name shows d pride my father has in me. It shows that who ever I become in life, is due to him and not my husband.....

If I am successful in life, why shouldn't my dad take glory for part of that success? Why is my husband taking credit for something he did not do?

A woman grows up all her life with her given name. She establishes a work history with her given name. She also has business acquaintances and friends that know who she is by her given name. why should she bury everything just bcuz she wanna marry d man she loves

Well, this is Nigeria where we have our own culture and belief and our tradition demands that a woman to drop her maiden name for his husband name. And even the bible confirm this when it stated that a man and woman will leave their parents and stick to each other. Also that a woman must obey, respect and ultimately summit to his husban while the husband must love his wife dearly in return. So its normal for a woman to bear his husband name. That is what God commands.
