Lots of childish Nigerian men everywhere

Pls try deceive ur husband with age before talking of childishness...

You might not be lucky to meet some1 has calm as the op who got scammed.
everyone has their preferences and what they choose is not your damn business..
For a woman to deceive a man with 6 good years. That is integrity issue and it goes a long way far more than u are thinking if u are actually thinking....
#NairalandIdiots

Develpeast:
I just found out that we have so many issues in this country and most are not from the government. People talk and think like kindergarten kids. See how they turned everything against him that its a trivial issue. Many people will surely die due to trivial issues. Major investigations see their breakthrough through simple lies because one lie is a squeezer of trust. One simple lie can destroy a contract. One simple lie can lead to mass-sack.

The commenters supporting the lying woman cannot and should not be seen in public offices and places of high repute. It would have been better they pasted names and pictures of such people online. They lack the capacity to deal with critical issues the way it should be dealt with. They should be kept in obscurity. Facing their own whack view of life.

Nickxtra, please feel cheated and angry that she lied this much. 6years isn't six days, my brother. Use this opportunity to ask more questions and fully truth of other lies she might have been dishing out since day 1. Assess those lies and see if you can move on with the marriage because I know you won't be able to consume another strong pill of lies again.

Age falsification wey dem use pursue person from presidency position, these olorikorobas de use am play.

I no know how I be Nigerian sef, kawai

Thank you for this comment at least som1 is making sense.
rly confrmed today that idiots have taken over nairaland...Legion of idiots

Stop claiming holier than thou! Can u swear with Amadioha that in the yrs of courtship with her u never lied? Bros u. might have equally lied uncountable to girls, so stop professing saint here.

Most of the comments made against the Op is appalling and disgusting.

Op was deceived into marrying an older woman and on finding out he is to be blamed for his outburst which is normal.

Op...divorce is too extreme. You have every right to be angry but don't let your anger override your reaction.

Shame on all those bashing the Op. Shame on you all.

That's not a good reason for a divorce. Let her know that what she did was wrong and who knows how many other secrets she's still hiding from you. Maybe this one will make her begin to open up.

dollyjoy:
Yes. She made him a man by putting her life on the line to give him kids.

stfu she a bloody liar. evil

So how old is she 24 to 30 or 30 or 36

Amelian:
Op. u want to divorce your wife who bore two healthy kids because she lied about age.? I swear u r not serious.. U want to divorce her before, fucvk this age thing u r saying.. She's fertile, she appears young, if not for certificates u won't have known..

My guy u no serious...
If u know since the day u were born, uv never lied before? Thru dating and now married to her, uv not lied at all... Then by all means go ahead and divorce.

But remember . Karma is waiting for u calmly later in life... Smhhh..

Dey divorce nah.

When men brag about divorce over little things it's so annoying..

May our gods free u from stupidity...
I don't want to belive ladies are this daft.

This is Trust issue madam, address the topic and leave the personality.

That people liked this comment shows idiots abound...

and your type shall weep at the insincerity of our government. is this the future of nigeria?

Get this into your head, this is integrity issue and it goes a long way.. he has every right to react. 6 good years ain't joke

dollyjoy:
Yes. She made him a man by putting her life on the line to give him kids.

EfemenaXY:

Please learn from this, and stop lieing about your age too.

My marriage to my wife is facing a serious challenge, after I discovered from my wife's WAEC certificate, that the date of her birth on the result is 6 years more than what she told me and what has been in all her non academic documents, including her C.V. Actually, i have seen all her academic certificates, including her NYSC discharge certificate, but never saw her S.S.C.E and FSLC results that normally bear dates of birth. Each time i ask her for them in order to compile all the credentials for job application purposes, she would tell me that her WAEC, NECO and primary school results are in a box, with her mum in thier home town; that she would ask her mum to bring them. I gnomo her mum lager came with them for her.

Eventually, a serious sure job came for which i would need these credentials to forward to the organization. She gave me the WAEC result with the excuse that age forgot the NECO and FSLC in her current office, which she promised to bring. Lol and behold! What i saw on the WAEC result is a date of birth 6 years higher than what she told me and what is in her C.Vs.

I called her attention and she started giving me excuses that hold no water. She is saying that the same DOB were erroneously registerd for her when, perhaps they were registering her for both WAEC and NECO. That when the results came out and she noticed the errors, she complained and applied to correct same, but since then, the exam authorities have not corrected them. I have not come to terms with the this discovery. I think this may cause us peace, thrust and love in pur marriage.

My brothers and sisters, i think am contemplating of what action to take against her and am contemplating a divorce, but our two children are still very small for this. I want to report this issue to her family and mine. Am gradually withdrawing my trust for her.

I need matured advice and suggestions that will see me through this.

forgive and forget . See it as a mistakes on her part . If God can forgive us freely you should as well. I know it's hard but. Plus pray about it . What's the probability another girl you'll find won't lie to you ?

I am not here to apportioin blame to anyone,neither you nor your wife.i have similar issue though.when I registered for my waec, I gave a correct details of my bio-data.however I was surprised when our exam number booklet was distributed before the exam, my surname was omitted,my date of birth was inaccurate,my dob was two years older than my correct age. I immediately report the issue to the school and I was asked not to worry that it will be corrected before the original result will be out. I waited patiently,only to find out that nothing was done about it.Till date I use an affidavit attached to all my documents.stating my surname and correct Dob. Atleast she should have told you about it. first time to comment

dollyjoy:
Yes. She made him a man by putting her life on the line to give him kids.

No offense, but this an idiotic comment. As in enh, a very very stewpid one. Grow up kid!

In as much it was wrong for her to lie about her age ..it will be double wrong for you to divorce her base on that.
You want to inform the parent?? Too wrong to do that either!

1. Just let her know what she did was wrong
2. Erase it from your memo .. and move on with your life..
That's the path of becoming a man!!!

If for age you want to do this .. What will you do if you find a man on her on your bed

Be a man! Be matured!

Bros, me sef tire. Still shocked beyond words at that comment. Smh

Men marry with the mind of looking out and eventually getting a divorce. Women marry to love and to live their years with their husband and children.
Op please forgive your wife.

Many forget to understand that honesty is one of the bases of marriage. In Catholic faith, once there is deceit from one party and later found out even if the marriage had been consummated, there was never a union from inception. It was all deceit. The woman lied cos she was deperate....though they have kids together, they weren't married in the eyes of God because one factor one party deceived the other into the union...if the woman has been honest with her age, and the man still went ahead with the marriage, then the man couldn't have been complaining now. There are so many things that make a supposed marriage a nullity...one of such is concealed lies.

dollyjoy:
Yes. She made him a man by putting her life on the line to give him kids.

i can't believe I'm reading this... she got married through scamm and most of you will claim religiously religion

small girl like you what did you know.

Ranchhoddas:
Not just in marriage, every aspect of life. It's a pity that the not-yet-fully-evolved beings that I happen to have the cosmic misfortune of sharing nationality/race with cannot grasp something so basic. The donkeys are going as far as blaming the man for even daring to get upset. I regret my nationality.

o boy abeg no let this matter worry u..lots of this people here are kids

let me just read some useless comments

Feanah:


I get you sister.I no dey like that age reduction matter , better to keep it to yourself than tell a lie.There's something about lies,no matter how little they're,they make people lose respect for you .Ah that age matter dey very very important for people that think 'traditionally' like me o Because,Asuming I find out I'm older than my husband even if it's just with one day,I guess that's the end for us....because I just find it very awkward to marry a guy younger
Even if he isn't younger,I need to know his exact age,I'm the last person he's meant to lie to on earth,especially about something basic like this .

Yeah, lies in general are a turn off but I do believe some can be overlooked though, after all, we are guilty of one lie or the other.

If I may ask, what would it change if you were older than he, assuming everything is going well?

dollyjoy:
Yes. She made him a man by putting her life on the line to give him kids.

So an adult male without a child is not a man. This is stupid

Lathunjimi:
Rubbish comment, simple answer is what the guy needs, address the issue and not blaming men... that is why you wrote JAMB up to 6 times.

I've never written jamb in my life

queencalipso:



Why report her to the family over something he can easily handle? Must every simple issue get to the family? This is between them, he should handle it like a man.

It goes beyond what you think. It's better imagined than experienced. Instead of filing for a divorce, involving her family where he married her from will solve the problem.

Richy4:
Is another girl knocking at the side door OP?

Why is this an issue to you instead of the employers..?

Do you now realize that she was older than you or what?

is she committing adultery?

is she not a good mother to your kids?

Does her n@kedness look different or aged overnight since you Now discovered the age discrepancy ?

What precisely is the problem here? This is something that could be overlooked when there is love....

People are different anyways.. but i can only have trust issue with a lady when I have an evidence that she is "running around" not something as petty as age difference.....If She like let her be 100 and claim 15 for all I care as long as she is a wonderful mother to my children and attend to my needs..

why is it that your own reply make sense alot..10000 likes 4 you

I broke up with my then girl because she was older than me with months, honestly 6years reduction in age?. . .what if she is now older?


All those saying age is just a number "why is there a difference between 6 and half a dozen"? , to hell with you. .everyone is different

Also, there is what is called trust. . .man I can't take it.

But since OP has children, he has to take it and forgive her.

realmindz:

Hahahaha. I can tell you that over 70% of Nigerian youths are certified morons.

A creature that fails to accept destiny will accept despair. You are married already with kids accept that as your destiny. Embrace it ,age is just a number. If she didn't look too old for you before you went to toast her or got to know her actual age, bro enjoy your life.

Do you love her dearly? Then let your love for her cover such wrong and move on with your marriage because age is just a number

God bless u sir.

I was shocked when I saw the first 7 or 6 comments blaming the man. I even thought probably I didn't read the story well but no I did.

see leaders of tomorrow who can't even make a sound judgement, our future is already in shamble. damn
