MadCow1: What is Alimony and Child Support? Alimony and child support are divorce settlements where the man pays his wife the bulk of his monthly salary because the law asked him too It gives women the power to mentally, financially and emotionally frustrate their husbands and ex-husbands throughout the rest of their lives It makes men incapable of having another 'normal' family It makes it a crime to be a 'man' It allows ex-wives to sit their fat lazy asses at home all day because they were mainly dependant on their husbands' income while they were married and are now incapable of getting jobs It provides ex-husbands and husbands a perfect motive to murder their wives. And yet it has not stop any man from engaging in activities that are grounds for divorce In today's world, a divorce settlement is concerned with the protection of women not the man because he is a man 2 Likes |

Sixix:this is just the point ..... she talked about going abroad . you go abroad with him , he can still dump you if he chooses too . the bottom line is " don't plan to live your life under the sole custody of your hubby. |

GooseBaba: I did and just for the benefit of the doubt, I re read it and my post still stands. The Inferiority complex you accused Mr. Owoh of having in response to his post shows you didn't understand his post at all.. He simply was trying to say he picks white weddings over trad because of the legality of it over the rest and that my friend is sound academic argument that has absolutely nothing to do with either an inferior or superior complex. **Okay.. Who am I and why am I making so much sense with such have elaborate big grammar? Infact I am "Oleku"ing myself right now (feeling the boy).. ![]() |

Our fore fathers and great grand parents didn't do any white or court wedding,yet they lived together in peace. We now have white and court weddings, and ironically, WE HAVE PEOPLE THINKING OF GETTING DIVORCED,EVEN B4 THEY ARE MARRIED,,how sad. If u do not trust a man to love you ,why get married to him.. Dnt get me wrong,I'm not against the white or court,my fear is the reason why it is desired. A marriage that will last forever,doesn't necesarily require documents,it requires two honest people who truly want to be together, not people who will be quick to seek divorce after every problem.. Please let's all be guided,what works for u may not necesarily work for another. |

cococandy: Only small minded and illiterate Niggas would oppose her write up.. Any woman who does not have a court certificate to back up her marriage is playing marriage Russian roulette and should pray she never pulls the trigger with a loaded chamber in the barrel. |

OrlandoOwoh: But, Bros... That's not what you said before. You said white wedding gives marriage legal backings...how so..!? In the system of government policy in Nigeria. Traditional marriage and court registration of marriage is all one needs... But of course, colonial madness of marriage raises its ugly head.. 1 Like |

Sixix: I've heard of cases where it's the man collecting Alimony even though it's rare so the laws is there for both parties it's just that it favours more the party that isn't as rich as the other |
Re: The Growing Trend Of Men Shying Away From Court or White Wedding by Sixix: 7:39pm On Oct 05, 2014 |
tatiana009: It is not just rare BUT EXTREMELY RARE It is indirect discrimination |
Re: The Growing Trend Of Men Shying Away From Court or White Wedding by Nobody: 7:41pm On Oct 05, 2014 |
CoCoLav:A made man knows what to sign , I guess thats why psquare only settled with the traditional. if you like sign document , if you name or your children's name are not included in the will ... there is nothing you can do . and yes even if there is no will , it depends on whose name he puts down as the next of kin . some men still put down the names of their younger ones as next of kin. you should know the law fully so as not to make a wrong decision. |

warrior01: oh didn't know that.thanks. |
Re: The Growing Trend Of Men Shying Away From Court or White Wedding by Nobody: 7:41pm On Oct 05, 2014 |
GooseBaba: Some Churches have obtained the authority to have the couple sign documents after the joining and them issue them a marriage certificate which is fully recognised by law so it negates the need to go to the registry. So it's not about inferiority but a matter of picking any of the ways of legalising the marriage that you prefer |

InvertedHammer: I knew one of you Niggas would take that bait.. ![]() Now let me test your knowledge of Nigerian Laws with regards to the marriage act. .. Question : Do you my friend know what term 'maintenance' means as regards the marriage act of Nigeria? If you do (or if you Google it and find out) then what's your point about enforcement? If the courts awards maintenance to a spouse and the other party refuses to comply, that party would be in direct breach of court orders and would be sent to jail.. I no be lawyer o! But it's still a surprise that I am not.. Thanks for reading more of my legal mumbo jumbo. |
Re: The Growing Trend Of Men Shying Away From Court or White Wedding by MadCow1: 7:44pm On Oct 05, 2014 |
tatiana009: Nigerians are bound to interpret lemony more in favour of the women because they subject their wives to being financially dependent and so can't see how they wouldn't be the party paying alimony in the case of a divorce. |
Re: The Growing Trend Of Men Shying Away From Court or White Wedding by Nobody: 7:44pm On Oct 05, 2014 |
I remember when I married iya Akin my 2nd wife, we went to church, mosque, shrines, courts etc Trust me, we have about 63certificates now. |
Re: The Growing Trend Of Men Shying Away From Court or White Wedding by Nobody: 7:45pm On Oct 05, 2014 |
majekdom2: Lawyers in the house please correct me if I'm wrong but I think most Nigerians mistake the meaning of next of kin. Next of kin refers to the person to by contacted in case of emergencies and it's not about property sharing. In a case where there is no will once a woman petitions the courts and has her marriage certificates she will be awarded the husband's inheritance and then maybe a percentage will be put in trust for the children for when they are old enough. |

InvertedHammer:ok , so we are both cons of this thread unlike the other ... you sabi as things dey work for naija. |
Re: The Growing Trend Of Men Shying Away From Court or White Wedding by CoCoLav(f): 7:48pm On Oct 05, 2014 |
majekdom2: That's where you are wrong. There's something called reasonable financial provision for dependants. If there's no will, that's where your legal marriage comes in or in the absence of a legal marriage, the next of kin. But then again....I don't want to argue. Wise women know what to do. |

MadCow1: Na today cow dey man...!? Abeg leave that thing.. Nothing we can't cure with machetes and pepper soup spices... Meanwhile, go re read again since you dey mad...na you talk am...he was clear about his opulence for white wedding...can the same not be applied to traditional wedding with court documents ... Hence my stance "inferiority things" and it stands gidigba..! No shaking And while you're at it... Kindly show me which legal documents one gets from white wedding that holds up in the court of law...? |

Sweetlemon: Post like this irritate the hell out of me. First of all, church and court wedding is not our culture, this are culture introduced by the Europeans. Secondly, Do you take into consideration the financial status of the man? you all want traditional, court, church/white wedding and you ignore the fact that there is money involve and giving the Nigerian economy which is not smiling, many men will skip it. Thirdly, You made it looks as if white wedding is a gift from the man to the wife. Fourthly, not everyone is religious. After all the public display, ceremonies, parties etc, the most important thing that matters is between the husband and wife, that should be the core focus. 1 Like 1 Share |

CoCoLav:yea , I know the next of kin comes in where there is no spouse ... but for a man to put the name of his siblings as next of kin . you should know what that means. |
Re: The Growing Trend Of Men Shying Away From Court or White Wedding by CoCoLav(f): 7:54pm On Oct 05, 2014 |
majekdom2: The average Nigerian man secures properties in HIS OWN name. These days, I ensure every property my father buys is either in my name or my siblings names. Not even my mother's name. I love my aunties and uncles oo, but you only know someone's real character when money is involved. |

Sweetlemon:when a man completes the traditional requirements in marrying his wife, the marriage is complete. The woman should move in with him. All other forms of marriages are secondary. Any family insisting on keeping their daughter after all traditional requirements have been fulfilled is meddling. Court or white weddings are at the discretion of the couple later on if they so wish. Africans licking western azzes without a thought. 1 Like |
