You don't adopt family members, the best you can do is to be a legal guardian Ashirioluwa: |

sirrotex: That’s not true. |
Re: Adoption Process by sirrotex: 6:54pm On May 18, 2023 |
Please tell us what is true Ashirioluwa: |
Re: Adoption Process by Ashirioluwa: 12:19am On May 19, 2023 |
sirrotex: We have obtained the necessary information about adopting a family member who is still a minor. The biological parent of the child, if they are alive, must attend an interview and counseling at the Ministry of Youth, Alausa. The adopter must attend counseling sessions too. The process involves a lot of interviews and counseling sessions, which are mandatory. Also, the adopter needs to pay the necessary fee. 1 Like

Ashirioluwa:what if the adopter lives out of Nigeria? Does he have to travel home to attend the interview sessions? |

koreanlord: I am having same issue. They said the interview and counseling sessions are mandatory. |

Re: Adoption Process by sirrotex: 12:23pm On May 19, 2023 |
The attached documents show the normal procedure for adoption. My point is the adoption of a family member. Just so that you know, adoption extinguishes all parental rights and obligations, this means that the biological parents no longer have any dealings whatsoever with the child adopted. Is this your intention? Ashirioluwa: |
Re: Adoption Process by Ashirioluwa: 1:06pm On May 19, 2023 |
sirrotex: I know what adoption is. I attached the documents to let you know that I have the necessary information. |
Re: Adoption Process by sirrotex: 2:42pm On May 19, 2023 |
I still maintain my position that the booklet you attached is for general adoption from an orphanage or home. Bullet point 8 gives a hint Ashirioluwa: |
Re: Adoption Process by Ashirioluwa: 4:49pm On May 19, 2023 |
sirrotex: As I mentioned previously, I am fully informed about adopting a family member who is a minor. The child's parent was the one who did the running around to get the necessary information concerning adoption. They are both aware that their parental rights will be terminated when the adoption is finalized. Coming home to attend the required interview and counseling sessions is the main problem because they claimed it would be like 3 to 5 interviews. |

Very well then. Best wishes Ashirioluwa: |
