Only a fool still does court marriage. Court marriage is just a trap for the unsuspecting man. Mayb when he pays alimony taya and can no longer recover financially or psychologicallly from it, he will learn. Court marriage is not romantic, its sheer stupidity. Let the wise take heed. Let the stupid ones criticize. 6 Likes |

Societal pressure and inclination has almost ruined Nigeria. Just to enter into a marriage union, one is marched on to spend an amount that can feed the new family for one year, and attendants will still be feeling you didn't spend much. Especially in this buhari time, do the indoor traditional marriage ceremony and visit the registry after to seal it up legally. You can visit the church on sunday to do thanksgiving. What we all term as church wedding is just celebration of the marriage contracted at the traditional and/or marriage registry. There is nothing like church wedding as it doesn't confer any legal right whatsoever. I will also add that a legally married wife/husband has priority in the grant of letter of administration of estate (in the event either party died without a will). This is good to keep extended family members at bay and in their rightful place. 9 Likes |

arabaribiti: It is a breach contract and criminal offence punishable by imprisonment though I don't know the number of years if any of the party remarries without legally disolving the formal union. This is only applicable if any of the party enforce his/her right in the Court . And even if they do not, their current marriage is null and void. Even the Holy Scripture condemn such and refers their second "union" simply as adultery. |

fados4sure: Please i will advise you to withdraw that statement of consent and court wedding since you are not a legal expert or have done a court wedding yourself. Wedding may take place in a court premises but the certificate is issued by a LGA marriage registry. 1 Like |

erico2k2:He said the truth, biko. Just that court marriage in Nigeria is not too strict. In the Western world, a woman can easily run you down using court marriage as a bait. Why do you think Kanye West and Kim are living as partners and not as husband and wife even when they have kids? 4 Likes |

fados4sure:Why are you being silly,,you are here to learn and you are refusing to learn, there is no such thing as court wedding, its called Registry,this is how it is across the world, for Uk to US to Russia to south Africa. Lawyers go to THE REGISTRY as well I do not understand why you are finding this difficult to understand. |

teetee123: What is the confusion here. If had Church, Mosque, Traditional or in Court premises. All Certificates most come from the Marriage registry. There are Two (2) types of Marriage Registries in Nigeria A. Federal Marriage Registries a) LAGOS – Ikoyi Registry (covers all those resident in Lagos, South-South, South East and South West) b) ABUJA – Wuse 2 (covers all those resident in the Northern region) B. All States have various Registries at the State and Local Government level. 1 Like |

OBAGADAFFI:Great stuff, however churches do issue certificate .I had that issued to me at the church I got wedded in but that was not law binding as I had to go to a local registry to obtain one.My friend however arranged for teh registrar to come to church and have it signed there and then but that was for a not so busy Registrar in a quiet and small lGA. In the Uk the church of England issues wedding certificate and teh Home office are finding it challenging not to accept it cos teh Queen is the head of teh church of England and teh registry is under her royal highness. 1 Like |

erico2k2: Well most Churches in Nigeria are smarter. These Churches assist their members to the registry and they issue the Government Certificates right in the Church. These are big Churches, like Catholic, RCCG, Methodist etc 2 Likes |

Maxvasia: Grow up sunny boy. Alimony is also enforceable in church marriages gone sour. So if any man who married through the church should divorce his wife and leave her with lets say 3 kids, do you think the church will just tell you go your way good man, let your ex wife only take care of all the kids? What makes marriage fail is not Tradition, church neither is it Registry wedding (what most people ignorantly call Court Wedding) but the people involved and how able they were in managing the circumstances leading up to divorce. They are men /women whom have seen 10 times what most divorcees saw and went their separate ways but are in still in their marriage and had worked their ways through such trouble waters through perseverence etc . Please note that Church /Tradition /Registry don't make marriage work, people /couple do, they can only help . 7 Likes 1 Share |

CarrotAndStick:cos they chose to, They might not be bothered about getting married, to them lot ,marriage do not mean a thing.Check the laws in teh US and the UK, once you have kids and have lived together for xyz numbers of years you have same right as couples who are married Also you can chose to sign a prenup where both parties value what they have and sign an agreement to go away with such if they do go apart, so as you can see its not a big seal. prenuptial agreement (redirected from Prenup) Also found in: Dictionary, Financial, Wikipedia. prenuptial agreement (antenuptial agreement) n. a written contract between two people who are about to marry, setting out the terms of possession of assets, treatment of future earnings, control of the property of each, and potential division if the marriage is later dissolved. These agreements are fairly common if either or both parties have substantial assets, children from a prior marriage, potential inheritances, high incomes, or have been "taken" by a prior spouse. (See: antenuptial agreement) http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Prenup 1 Like |
