hardbody:except d lady is a dummy, it cant. I rmbr being tot dat promise to marry can be upheld in a court of law. google. its been judicially noticed in d country of late. wat more does she need to prove. u kept her in a house for over 9mnths, put her in d family way. My dear, dis kind circumstantial evidence plenty. She wld nail him. am just sad dat in Nigeria she can only get a few thousands. If its in d west, she wld be a millionaire (in dollars at dat) |

adeaks:its not a matter of being gullible dear. I av read one case were a lady succeeded in d northern part of nigeria. Someone said she needs to corroborate d promise to marry ish. I Doubt dat. its just like proving adultery in divorce proceedings is circumstantial so is this case too. once d lady can tell d court he engaged her, provide relevant exhibits ie d ring, any oda fancy stuff she can lay her hands as an engagement gift coupled with d fact that they cohabited, and to cement it, get a neighbor who can testify in her favor, d man is a gonner. |

firstEVA:Hahahaha...under which law? There is no known law nor any provision of any law in Nigeria that recognizes a 'mere promise', in other words, a 'mere promise' is not enforceable under the law.The court is only looking at the fact that he impregnated her, and left her with no care. Ladies know that you cannot bring any legal action against a man on a 'mere promise' of marriage. |

urchbarbie:Promise to marry can be upheld in a court of law in Nigeria as long as the plaintiff/petitioner can corroborate it as stated in d Evidence Act. She can even corroborate it with direct evidence such as 'Sms,Bbm Chat,Watsapp Chat and even Love Letters dat was exchanged btw both parties. But hardly wil u see such case in our court sha |

urchbarbie: Understand my context. I am aware there is a plethora of case law on this point. I am only following the argument you led when you talked about her proving her case with a ring supposedly bought by the guy in question. I said an argument placed on that plank will be dismantled without much ado. My earlier submission was based on jurisdictional competence. The matter will eventually be delivered on preponderance of evidence. |
Re: Woman Drags Boyfriend To Court For Dumping Her After Marriage Promises by Nobody: 9:18pm On Jun 19, 2015 |
urchbarbie: But it is there expressly in the evidence act nah. S.197. Proof of breach of promise to marry is not circumstancial, that I am very very sure of. The neighbour would only work if he can give evidence of being there when the promise to marry was made otherwise his evidence would be hearsay. That's why cases on breach of promise to marry are rarely filed in our courts. You can read these old cases if you can get them. Sowande v Sowande and Olusanya v Ibadiaran. ***** I'd appreciate if you can give me the citation of d northern case you mentioned as I can't remember any case on this issue in recent times. I'd like to read it. 1 Like |

Re: Woman Drags Boyfriend To Court For Dumping Her After Marriage Promises by Nobody: 9:29pm On Jun 19, 2015 |
urchbarbie: You are analysing this issue from an emotional angle rather the strict angle of the law as a lawyer. Now, cohabitation raises a presumption of marriage under common law....accepted. But that means the action she would file in court would not be a "breach of promise to marry". Rather she would simply lead evidence, invoke and rely on the presumption of marriage and then pray that the court should compel him to pay her maintenance as her husband. But for a B.o.p.m, she is saying that there is no marriage between them because he promised to marry her but reneged on his promise. You can not approbate and reprobate at the same time in law. It is either she is asking for damages based on b.o.p.m or she is asking for maintenance as his wife under common law. She can't ask for the two at once. 1 Like |

cococandy: That would be sexism na. Is it by force to marry a guy? Are we going to be taking the numerous girls in Nigeria that find a maga to pay for everything for them while he is hoping for sex he would never get or we will just tell him to sharpen up? 1 Like |

hardbody: Gbam @bolded! Isn't it easy for a lady to buy a ring and claim it was the guy that gave it to her. If that were to be all that was needed the law would descend into absurdity. |

urchbarbie:at the end what will she gain? definitely not the marriage she had been yearning for, the guy can tarnish what's left of her personality, she might get Lil change and stuff, shiiiiii the only reasonable thing she might get is for that punkass mofo to come and take part of the responsibility of their pregnancy and thang. the deed is done |
