Fellow Nairalanders. Please kindly assist your brother. I want to open a pension account and I have to fill a next of kin. I am confused who to choose between my wife and my son. I love my wife and I also love my son too. This is why I don't know who to choose between the two of them. Please kindly advise.

Your wife. ....she's your missing rib now let her now pass it to your son

Wife

son

if you dnt av a SON yet, go for ur wife, bt now that you have a son, so why confuse again.

ur SON as at nw should be ur next of kin

How old is your son?incase you 'travels',can he stand up to the long process of verification?

.

See question o! I see no reason why you should be confused. Na who born the pikin? By the way, how are you sure the so called son is yours? Femi kuti comes to mind! Abeg, put your wife name there in CAPITAL LETTER..

Still append your wife's name there

My dear,is your son

This really makes you wonder why on earth some people get married

Do you have other children? Is your son mature enough to handle the funds that will be in his control incase you depart suddenly? IMO, your spouse should be the best option for next of kin. You'll be assured that your children will be well taken care of with the funds you leave behind.

your son definitely!

You have unprotected se-x with your wife meaning you trust her with your body.
You cook food she eats meaning you trust her with your life but you cant trust her with your money.

Where your treasure is that is where your heart is. You dont love your wife, you are only using her to reproduce and do househelp

From personal experience, wifey is it! u never jam first son whey exclude im siblings from what daddy left behind. l do know that there are options of filling in 2 persons, so wife and son should be it incase of incasity.

Typical case of marrying for breeding .
Your baby son your next of kin.

Choose your neighbor.

,u don vex oo!

Depends on the relationship you have with your wife. Have a friend who's husband, cos of some issues they were having at a time looked her in the eye and threatened her

With all sorts, from packing his things and abandoning the family to bringing in another woman in to the house. No one told her before she ran to remove his name as her

Next of kin and changed it to her daughter's cos that was the day her trust that he will stick by her thru thick and thin died.

You should ideally use your wife. All depends on how strong the bond between you two is at the end of it all!

Normally, our next of kin should be our wives but most men prefer choosing their children.

Many men decide to select their children as their next of kin because most women tend to leave their husbands. (Women can’t be trusted for long ).

They believe that women can change at any moment and that means the property will go into the hands of the wrong human being.

As for me, my lovely wife remains my next of kin. (We are no longer 2 BUT ONE) If I have assets, she inherits them and if I have liabilities too, she inherits them as well.

At least, I knew my wife before I see the children.

Once you are still legally married to your wife and you are living happily with her, then your next of kin is your "Sweet-Heart"

Thanks y'all for all the pieces of advice. So I think I should choose my wife then

OP, your next-of-kin is your wife.
