Some of these things are confusing ooo. I dont see this topic as daft at all. We dont really know it all.
Another that confuse me is this. If a married woman hasn't change her name legally and applying for a job or filling an important form where there are provisions of title,surname and names.is she to fill in 'mrs' as title while filling the rest with her former names?

Here's a more serious question: what's a woman's birthday and gender after marriage? A wife should adopt her husband's birthday and gender.

The Husband's.

When you get married,every thing changes to your husbands.

But,some people use their State of Origin for things that might be beneficial to them i.e Jobs and Contracts.

Especially if those things are Zoned to her Original State of Origin.

I don't know how they do it now,but when we did JAMB to get into the University.

Those from the North were given admissions with low Marks,so a woman who is a Northerner but married elsewhere,can use her State for the Admission purpose.

[i]This argument has been on between my colleagues and I, some of us insist a woman maintains her maiden state of origin (officially) after marriage, others say she changes to her marital state of origin .

To the Mrs in the house, which state of origin do you put on official forms (e.g) bank documents, travelling, sim registration...etc.?
Lolz. This is a non issue. The woman marrying the husband doesn't change her state of origin nau. Na the man's family born am?

No be small thing. The woman's accademic qualification changes to her husbands own. After all he owns her now and she must become him.

Op I think one's state of origin doesn't change just as place of birth never changes...so to those ppl who keep or will keep divorcing men does it mean they'd keep changing state ot origin.


Op let me ask u a question if u are asked to draw a tattoo compulsorily on ur chest and u have two options to select from which is: write your name or write your husband's name..which of these option will u opt for?

I don't understand why Nigerians let stuff like this bothers them. In the Nigerian settings of today, your state of origin and even local government of Origin sometimes depend on the purpose to which you intend using it for.

For example, job purposes. If a woman is from Ondo and she's married to an Ogun man and there is a recruitment going on in Ogun, she could claim Ogun state and if the recruitment is going on in Ondo, she could also go back to apply. Infact it's an advantage.


Just like local government of Origin, I have two different certificates I use. For state or Federal recruitment, I use the local government with lesser number of graduates just to increase my chances.
Re: Should A Woman Change Her State Of Origin After Marriage? by Nobody: 10:25am On Jan 24, 2016
awwww. come on. this is no brainer at all. your state of origin is fixed for life and that is where you originated from, just like who your parents are is fixed for life.

your citizenship may change to your husband's though.

lol. how can you fill in "Mrs" with your maiden name when you didn't marry your dad. instead opt for a compound name if you are emotionally attached to your maiden name. i.e, your maiden name followed by a hyphen and then your husband's name.

too much wahala if you ask me.

How can everything change to your husband's? Is it constitutional or traditional/cultural?
If a Nigerian lady marries a polish man, does she automatically lose her Nigerian status? I don't think so.
She only becomes a citizen of such place by marriage...

Same with when a woman gets married; she only becomes a native of her husband's state...by marriage.
Re: Should A Woman Change Her State Of Origin After Marriage? by stevedre: 10:45am On Jan 24, 2016
Guy cool down. I guess u dont mingle with allot of naija traditional Husbands. Some see their wife as a property so she changes even her state of origin and even needs a very good reason to visit her people. I have a neighbour with 2 cars n the wife still uses bus or okada not cuz she cant drive but cuz husband is a pain in the ass. Many men in naija still have old mentality of marriage n may even change their wifes face to theirs if possible. grin

Cutehector:
Mrs intellectuality.. your topic is daft! And I will say it again and again and again.

Don't u understand what origin means? Your root? Your father's state. Jeez. I see no reason why very obvious things like these shoud cause a debate.

Uncle if the question is funny to you, stick to Romance section. This is a "controversial" topic amongst some married people.
controversial ko, CTRL V ni. undecided
Even sai bahari will not allow that kinda change grin grin

On a serious note, State of origin should your place of birth and that can't change even if you are married to that state.
In my opinion, i think state of origin stuff should be abolished and replaced with state if residency. If you pay taxes to a particular state, you should be able to claim that state as your own.

What is the true meaning 'state of Origin'

As far as I know the only things that change after marriage are your last name and your place of abode. Your state of origin remains what it was before you got married.

So true. It says state of origin meaning where are your parents from (at least dad). It is a question that has to deal with "You" personally and no one else. Not attributed claims. Even if one officially changes one state of origin for whatever reason (s) it still doesn't negate the fact that your new state of origin is not your 'biological' state of origin for lack of a better term.

very pointed question, in this day and age where husband is seen as a scarce commodity and "everybody wants to marry a widower".

plus hackers and stalkers on your case 24/7.

Not to mention last days when minimum of 7 women see it as a thing of pride to try to grab hold of one man.
