Flee from any woman that request for Registry Marriage.

The issue of sharing of properties cannot come in except the wife claims that as a relief in her answer to the petition for dissolution of marriage.
The law assumes that settlement of property and maintenance is an ancillary relief which a man owes his wife if he files for divorce.


For example a man file for divorce after 20years of marriage to his wife.

The law assumes he's the one filling for divorce after she has given him 20 years of her life. She may even throw in how she supported him(even if it's not financial support) and performed wifely duties to him. The law assumes the man can't leave her with an uncertain financial future (I still don't know whether this implies if the woman is rich.. didn't see anything like that though) after she spent two decades building his.

If she claims for settlement of properties in the marriage, the judge usually would look at the circumstances of the case and facts supplied to reach a decision on what to give her.
Judges have a wide discretionary power to settle matrimonial properties as it deems just to do so.

The judge has a discretion to award reliefs sought by parties in a divorce proceeding, according to the facts and circumstances of the case at hand.
If she specifically ask that she shares in the matrimonial properties and the facts and circumstances makes it justifiable that she does deserve a share, the court will order that.

The law doesn't care about who owns what or what anyone brought into the marriage.

The court can order settlement I. e share any property belonging to any of the parties on the request of the woman.

Nigerian law considers marriage as a partnership.

The law assumes when the partnership finally end, nobody leaves empty handed except the woman didn't specifically ask for anything.

I guess this is why men are scared to file for divorce or reluctant to file for divorce because from the way it seems now the law assumes you've wasted the woman's life.

Like only women can file for divorce because if you do you'll lose much.. smh


I won't advice any man(not even my enemy) to do registry marriage .
If a lady insists on registry marriage please she can't be trusted, kindly cancel the wedding.

Don't trust any broke fellow.

Lol you again

IamD18:
Don't trust any broke fellow.

If you don't want to share your properties then flee from any woman who insists on registry marriage.

or else na suicide go end am o.

Go and do ordinary customary marriage not statutory ..no matter how you love a Nigerian lady if she opts for the registry (statutory) don't think twice /thrice before you flee.

ibkayee:
Lol you again

Which one is me again? you don't want me to advice them so that women can share properties with them?

Your comment isn't needed abeg.

If you love your life..
A word is enough for the wise..

Marry a lady that has her own properties so she won't say
you wasted her life.
You've your own properties ,I've mine.
we're both rich so there's no need requesting for any
property.
If you can't do that I'll advice you not to attempt registry
marriage.

Time

This is why there are lawyers to ensure that every loop hole is explored and exploited..

My serious gf want us to do court marriage and I already agreed!! Should I still trust her ?

I'm of the belief that the state should stay away from the institution of marriage but since it can't I like that individual have the option to go the other way in Nigeria for now

Let me use this thread to ease off the heartbreak our guys gave us this night.

People go into marriage thinking it won't last. Marriage built on foundation of sand of distrust and mutual suspicion. Na by force to marry if you already from inception thinking it is not going to work? Devil has indeed taken over the hearts of people and enslaved them with his reign of fear.
