We are so in love but the thought of us being related is so annoying and always create that gap between us. I'm asking to know if it is legal or should we just forget about it?

Well, our society does not support that. However depending on your religion, it may be allowed. I know the guys forms Pakistan and Bangladesh do that, I think ( not sure) our Northern brothers practice that too. There are other reasons why it may not be permissible one being medical reasons; there is a risk of your offspring paying for your actions. I think you should forget it and look somewhere else. May God guide you.

OP let me give you small advice. This love two of you have now will eventually fade and when it does, you will recall how it all started. Nobody will ever be by your side then because almost everybody you know will object to this union. Therefore, forget about that fake love nomatter how hard.

Its just a kind of Incest taboo in most societies, however, sum societies myt perceive it as Illegal. Find out in ur society if its lega or illegal, taboo or not, Mala in se or Mala in Prohibita !

God forbids it. Society forbids it. Even Genes forbids it. Its just not right bro. Get ur head straight. She's probarly the only girl u'hv been with. Try dating outside your family. Lots of fresh fish out there.

There‘s a law prohibiting such marriage in nigeria. D Marriage Act,2004 sections 32 & 35 - 48 & D Matrimonial Causes Act sections 3-5. U cannot marry a person dat is related 2 u by blood(prohibited degree of consaguinity) or related 2 u by marriage(prohibited degree of affinity)
It is a ban & will only b allowed in exceptional circumstances like wen u‘ve already impregnanted her unknowingly

Just a societal abberation but most societal values and traditions are being wipe out so why not this one. Abraham - a friend of God - married Sarah , his cousin and he was called Father of Nations.
.
What are you waitng for , dont want to be a father of nations?
