As a Christian,only ground for divorce is adultery. Separation can occur in a number of cases -threat to life etc. Those married will experience tribulation in flesh

Ok I get your point but I am an atheist.

No true. They don’t ask for evidence of divorce b4 u can marry. In customary you can marry more than one wife without being guilty of bigamy. You don’t have to be divorced b4 customary marrying again
. I am not talking about remarriage under customary law .I am talking about remarriage under the Marriage act or statutory marriage...Evidence of divorce must be presented

wedding is synonyms with marriage certificate? Lol where do you hear that from? Even the ones done at local govt councils people are not sure if they are void going by the recent tussle ,traditional weddings don't carry certificates last time i checked. So please tell me where you heard yours from?

Anyway there is no award for who wins and i am not here to according to you "win an argument" . I guess that is your own aim hence the reason it came to your mind,lol goodluck on that .

Just wanted to know the statistics you were working with since you are the statistician here with the day ,but all i got were bogus answers with no direct answer.All you had to do was atleast give a percentage ,but no.

OK , you win, go and collect your award from the mods if it makes you sleep better ,have a blessed day. cool

isnt this what the govt is supposed yo be doing to regulate the abnormailites? So many churches are licensed to operate as NGOs but need additional license to conduct statutory weddings, some think because headquarters is licensed branches are automatically licensed ,some obtain certificates from location govts councils which makes the certificate null and void .

This and many more is what i expect the federal govt to be looking into but they are more concerned about power tussle and massaging their ego at the expense of the masses ,what a country!
. absolutely correct!

[s]brings us back to the issue on ground that the rights of the local govts to conduct statutory marriages has been revoked and only 11 centers cross the country has been license to conduct statutory marriages across the country for people who want to skip the shenanigans of church weddings and opt for registry instead.

Hope that is a perfect recap of this thread?[/s]

GistCaster:
In a new development to the disagreement between the Federal Government and some local government areas over who has the right to conduct marriages in the country, the Federal Government has published the marriage registries and places it has licensed to conduct statutory marriage across the country.

The Federal Government, through the Ministry of Interior, re-emphasised its position that it was the only tier of government permitted by the constitution to regulate and conduct marriages.

It added that formation of statutory marriages was within the exclusive legislative list and that it was the regulatory body for the conduct of statutory marriages and the issuance of marriage certificates.

On its website, the ministry named the 12 registries in 11 states. They are the Federal Marriage Registries in Ikoyi, Lagos State; Abuja, Federal Capital Territory; Benin, Edo State; Owerri, Imo State; Port Harcourt, Rivers State; Kano, Kano State; Jos, Plateau State, Enugu, Enugu; Kaduna, Kaduna; Ibadan, Oyo State; Ikeja, Lagos State, and Makurdi, Benue State.

In an advertorial titled, ‘Public notice on conduct of statutory marriage’, in a newspaper on Wednesday, the Interior Ministry said, “The attention of the Ministry of Interior has been drawn to the publication in the PUNCH Newspaper of Friday, 13th September, 2019, page 42 under the caption, ‘Marriage: Ignore FG’s directive, LGs tell organisations’.

“The Ministry of Interior is therefore constrained to issue this notice in order to properly guide the public on the issue of Statutory Marriages under the applicable law in Nigeria.”

The ministry explained further that it had the responsibility for granting licences to qualified places of worship as well as LGAs that compiled with the provisions of the Act (Sections 4(2) & (5) of the Marriage Act), adding that the ministry had the responsibility to appoint officers to serve as registrars in the Federal Marriage Registries.

The public notice added, “It is observed that the local governments have deliberately misinterpreted powers conferred on them by item 7 (1) of the Fourth Schedule of the constitution.

“For the avoidance of doubt, item 7(1) states that the functions of the Local Government include: registration of all births, deaths and marriages. This provision is clear and requires the local government councils to maintain registries to register births, deaths and marriages for record purposes and planning.”

The ministry, however, warned that any statutory marriage conducted in breach of the Marriage Act, CAP 218, Laws of the Federation 2004 would not serve the desired purpose.
