Comedian Seyi Law And His Igbo Wife Speaks On Tribal Difference Between Them

Seyi law and wife stargist

Popular Nigerian comedian, Oluwaseyitan Alatile, a.k.a Seyi Law, and his wife, Ebere, marked their third wedding anniversary couple of months ago. The lovebirds had a recent interview with Punch where they talked about their marriage and spoke about how they cope with their tribal difference. Read Excerpts below...

How would you describe your marriage? 
Ebere: It has been wonderful, fun, divine, amazing and awesome. He is a wonderful person every woman would want to have. He is funny and cracks me up even in the house. But when he is serious, you would know because he would not be smiling. You would just know when he is not joking. 

Were there oppositions from family members? 
Seyi Law: The oppositions did not really matter. The people who objected to it were not the people that mattered to me. I saw them as people that were scared that once I got married; they would stop getting certain benefits from me. They were just fighting for their pockets. The most important people saw her as someone I should marry. The person I thought would object to me getting married to someone from another tribe was my father, but when he met her, he liked her personality. 
Ebere: My mother was skeptical about me marrying a Yoruba man, but the first day she met him, she liked him. There were no oppositions at all. 

How have you coped despite the tribal difference? 
Ebere: We understand each other. I am from Abia State but I speak Yoruba, and his native dialect, Ilaje.
