Remijuice:My opinion... If you are based in Lagos, kindly visit the ministry of justice (welfare department) in Alausa. They will be able to provide guild lines incase there is any case as regards the children. |

1030: Stop the misinformation. Customary marriage is recognised by law. If you had any meeting/introduction/gift giving with the family of the lady, then you are married to her. A court will and must be there for divorce. Except you want to do it the streets way 1 Like |

I don't have a problem with two adults starting a family with or without the parents consent. Family is a man, his woman and the children. How they became a family isn't important but that they are a family. I don't plan to get married if my gf is ok with that otherwise I will succumb to her wishes but all of it to me is "not so important". GN |

This is a civil partnership/ common law marriage in the eyes of the law. The man/woman must still take care of his/her responsibilities. Go to court and reach an agreement. He has children from the partnership who are eligible and have full rights of children within a marriage. 1 Like |

SUPERPACK: Stupid you.. Cohabitation is marriage under customary law. One of the parties must file for divorce in a magistrate court - especially when there is conflict on how they should separate or one party disagrees with the separation.. |

Remijuice: Read the highlighted parts again! You are not legally married! You two are just boyfriend and girlfriend living together! And your kids were had out of wedlock! So divorce is out of the equation! Only legally married couples can legally divorce! If the relationship is no more conducive for you then you have to just walk away, but try to do so appropriately by informing your girlfriend and discuss how you guys gonna take care of the kids. Remember, you need take care of your kids by law. Unless you want to lose your paternity right! Good luck. |

Remijuice: It’s not like you’re married but there is something in law which we call ‘presumption of existence’. That is to say by virtue of your cohabiting for a certain period of while with that man, the court presumes you two as married. Only a smart lawyer would know how to challenge that issue and raise a preliminary objection to the suit as a whole. Feel free to contact me if you need more guidance. 1 Like |

Madam You don’t talk about your offence and Forget about your investment, ask your self if you really love the gentle man. quote author=EJanni post=87622022] don't allow him to take your children away from you, they're too tender to stay without a mother. That said, proceed to court immediately. Lastly, you can try out to resolve your differences and embrace peace. Just for the sake of your children. Marriage is not easy at all.[/quote] |

Remijuice:Things are never as easy or straightforward as common sense make them look. There is something called Common Law Marriage (sui iuris) Though it depends on legal system of a country. But it's used to be called Lagos marriage. People from different parts of Nigeria got together, had kids, and hardly ever went back to their village with their family, When you now have kids involved, you have to sort out custody and maintenance when relationship breaks down. The court may have to step in. |
