Should A Woman Change Her State Of Origin After Marriage? by Nobody: 12:05pm On Jan 23, 2016 |
[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.? 1 Like 1 Share |

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. 4 Likes |

Kachisbarbie: 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. 112 Likes 5 Shares |

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. 184 Likes 29 Shares |

HungerBAD: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... 41 Likes |

I thought is the husband 's until they corrected me when I went for national identity card. That will urge one to review the meaning of origin, it remains her original state. 6 Likes |

Cutehector:lols Make yourself comfortable. If you know the quarrel this topic caused yesterday evening, you won't call it funny. Personally, I maintain my maiden state of origin, though I don't have any "legit" reason to back that decision up. I await people who can elucidate, especially as it applies "constitutionally". Cutehector:my dear, don't call my question daft. With all due respect,I doubt you are more intellectually sound than I am. No offence at all Godmother:Then you need to take my job for a week. One woman's name was totally different from her ID. She didn't only switch to her husband's state of origin, she took up the name he gave her. Her ID and the form she filled were totally different, I developed headache when she tried explaining. 4 Likes |

Kachisbarbie: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. 12 Likes 1 Share |

Cutehector:alright Sir. Endeavour to drive your points home constructively. Obviously there are people here who feel it should change to the husband's. The aim of this thread is to educate us all properly, but no...some people here think they are smart and every other person with wrong view(s) is a daft being. 15 Likes |
