What Does Nigerian Law Says About "Cohabitation"? by Nobody: 2:39pm On Nov 11, 2012
I just read an article where parliament in Kenya passed a law that when two people cohabits for six months, automatically they become married by law. While country like Uganda is for one year and automatically you become couples by the law.

I searched the net but find nothing with regards to the above in Nigeria. Please anyone that have an idea about what Nigeria law says about cohabitation should please comment.
