ShenTeh:Its not a matter of paying off. Some custom in the south requires that bride price be returned or it will be deemed that they're still together and if they woman have any sexual relationship in this state, she might suffer repercussion from ancestral arrangement |

The lady requesting this advice is only selfish thinking. you are hiding behind one finger. Laws of nature and your traditions Will very soon catch up with you. you acknowledge that the man paid your bride price and fulfill your traditions but now you want to run. first you have not given information about the cause of seperation leading to you leaving separately for some time now. you now come up with a one sided proposal for divorce. To many youth, marriage is a spiritual joining of two and witnessed by God's angels and several people. when you marry and failed to cooperate with your partner you are just disturbing yourselves. you will be running from one man to another because all men behave same. for the problems you have created with your bad behaviour go and complained to your church or mosque marriage counsellor and seek genuine advice from people that know you physically. if you apply any advice from this page you are floating to nowhere and oyo lo wa. 1 Like |

Candoit: Will she return his virginity too? Was she even a virgin in the first place? Without him she might probably never bear the name Mother in her lifetime. |

Technically, it's the husband's family that paid the dowry. Yes, the husband may be the one who actually put up the funds, but symbolically, it's from one family to the other. That said, there doesn't appear to be a legal requirement for dowry (as in it's not in our Marriage Act), which means the divorce can proceed through the courts without any talk of dowry. But we're talking about our traditional institutions: included in the dowry paid is the assumption that any children born in wedlock belong to the man's family... he may risk his traditional paternity rights by returning the dowry. I would vote NO, he should not "let her go" until he can guarantee his right to see or have his children stay with him, and for them to visit him at any time. This should be in writing so it's fairly balanced. As an aside, I always wonder why people don't include inflation in the dowry. I mean, 50k paid 10 years ago is worth about 200k today, so in my humble opinion, the man is entitled to 4x what he paid 1 Like |

humble2:...Bros,tell the girl to go sue for divorce if not,she will be putting more curses on her head and if care is not taken and she gets pregnant for another man,the legal husband can sue her for bigamy and that attract a 7 years jail term because it's a criminal offence.The truth is since she wants to remarry,she has to return the kid back to his biological father since he is Alive,She can't take his child and give to another man. |

humble2: If they had a court wedding, the marriage is not dissolved until dissolved by the court. Customarily, the bride price can be returned if the man is willing to accept but this time the kids will stay with their father. Unreconcillable difference means that the woman have her eyes on another man already, maybe her ex, or the man is chronic cheat and beater. |
