Funny dude. I will be very candid with you but you cannot eat your cake and have it. She made love to you, cooked food for you, washed your clothes and bore you a son and you are questioning if you should pay her bride price now she's dead? OP I think you are very heartless, this is the least you could do in her absence. I will advise you to call her elder brother, ask how much her dowry is and also the list of things her people need and go from there. Please rent a nice bridal gown and make wedding arrangements for her even if you have to take a loan, this is the right thing to do if you don't want to face the wrath of the gods or lose custody of your son. Goodluck. 41 Likes |

T0T0fucker:you are obviously a little kid who doesn't understand how things work.....How can you get someone's daughter pregnant and live with her for several years and now she is dead, you expect the family to negotiate with you? For those saying he will spend less, if he proves so stubborn, he will spend more. Una think say Naija Na oyinbo land...OP dey here dey find lawyer Abi him nor know say if the matter go court, de family can come up with allegations that he kidnapped and killed their daughter.... 49 Likes 3 Shares |

It's not for fear of harm. I'd do this for two reasons: memory of my son's mother and what we shared, and second for my son, so I'll be at peace with my son's family. Doing this is nothing compared to a live that's lost. Moreso that it is a matter of tradition. Give unto Caesar what is Caesar's. It takes not much from you and everyone will eventually get over the grief and move on to do more great things in life. What will not be erased is the role each person played now. This is not a lawyer's issue. 54 Likes 1 Share |

ibechris: He is obviously looking at legalistic approach to the issue. What you're saying is immaterial in the court of law- infact, he's not from the woman's tribe so he doesn't know the provisions of their customary practice in a case like this. In furtherance to this, the deceased was not a minor as at the time of cohabitation, she should have decided on which way to go as regards traditional wedding before agreeing if to cohabit wih him or get married to him. May her soul rest in peace. What if cases relating to stalking, intent to extort/defraud, misrepresentation of fact, threat to life or constructive possession is instituted/proven against the family? Moreover, he said he was willing to let them have the child. Op, take things easy on yourself. God be with you. 13 Likes 2 Shares |

Hmmm!! This is strong oo! You have been advised to do the needful by going to the girl's family with some of your elders for a peaceful dialogue. This is for you to have claims over your son and other things according to their tradition that you were supposed to have done if you had paid her bride price. The earlier the better! 10 Likes 1 Share |

StilmaVsBorn2w: You better handle this issue properly and right with them before it starts affecting you What her family mean to say is that, since you did not do the proper thing while she was alive and you have been living with her and now that she is dead, it has to be done before her burial can be done and before you can be recognized and attend her burial There is no big deal there after all, your sleeping with her got her pregnant and she gave birth to a child for you The issue of taking your child is not a problem, even if you go to court, court will still advise you to go and fulfill her marriage rights then come back to court to claim the child, probably through DNA test Do you have the time and money for all that, if yes then use it and go and settle with her family Being stubborn over it, will delay her burial and the mortuary cost will still be on you, including the burial cost But if you feel you can't subject yourself to do what they demand for which is not out of place, you will be hunted by her spirit If that one will be easy for you to handle then good luck But don't come back here to complain about spirit disturbing your life and future, you already know the spirit 20 Likes |

StilmaVsBorn2w: No court can help you in this case...Even the court of law believe in customary laws and they will refer you back to it...In as much as you don't wanna divulge the tribe I already know and most tribes share almost the same ideology in matters like this, but if you want to claim ownership of your son, you just have to do the needful or your son will be taken away from you and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it....!! A child bore out of wedlock in that tribe automatically becomes the child of the girls family and will bear her surname instead of yours unless you performs her marriage right...!! It's not by coming here to form gra-gra, unless you follow due process, your son will be taken away from you and there is nothing you can do about it...!!

Talk to your mum (where is your dad?), let her talk to some elders in your kindred and hear what they have to say. I am afraid, this isn't solely your decision to make, although if you fail to do the right thing, the repercussions are solely yours to carry. You can't stubborn your way out of certain things, especially things like these. She was with you till death, she had a son for you, her family knows you and knew she was with you, and if the economy wasn't bad, you would have probably married her a long time ago. You were a defacto husband, albeit traditionally unofficial, now the circumstances behind making it official may be absurd to you, but it is the right thing to do. Do it for her, do it for your son. 17 Likes |

Just like you refused to listen to your mom and this has led you here, ordinary question asked by Nairalanders, you're up in arms. Anyway, legally they have no hold on your son but what if they go the way of their deities which I am sure is why NLders asked the tribe question..... 3 Likes |

StilmaVsBorn2w:Do not give them that boy, they are very wicked people and will either maltreat the boy or use him to extort you. Get the police involved. If police can't handle the matter to your taste then go to court. This is the only way because I can see your primitive in laws are out to kill you. Please no need to get angry or quarrel, maintain your stand without unnecessary emotions. Stupid people are not exclusive to a certain tribe, they are everywhere so no need making this tribal. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

Sorry for the loss my brother. Being stubborn sometimes is not good. You can only brag or being boastful that you are not afraid of the devil if you have the spirit of God in you. In your case, you have already defiled your body by committing fornication and you never can tell if she died because of your sins. You might have promised God never to involve yourself in any immoral stuff but look at where you find yourself. My advice for you is, calm down, go back to your mum if she is alive, apologize to her and ask her for direction. She or your elder ones will tell you what to do. Youthful energy will fail you when the time comes. Keeping her in your house all this while is a grievous offense to you, your mum, herself and her family and then God Almighty. My brother, if you are not at peace with God, devil will take you for a ride and making you stubborn is the surest tactics devil is using to destroy your destiny and render your boy orphan (God forbid). Do the burial rite, go back to God and start again. Your future is bright. God bless you. 5 Likes 1 Share |
