Does Registry Marriage Require Parental Consent??! by Jman06(m): 10:56am On Mar 24, 2018 |
Please I need the opinions of nairalanders especially lawyers in the house. A friend of mine wants to go to the marriage registry to legally wed his heartthrob. The problem is that his people are not in support of the marriage for no other reason but tribal difference. My friend has made up his mind to marry the lady and his plan is to go to the registry and wed. So, he approached me to ask if the registry would require parental consent or not. He said that he is even ready to go and pay people who would stand as his parents if need be. So, i decided to share this with you guys to know if it is possible for the courts to wed a couple without parental consent. Also, why is it that ladies are given the liberty to choose who they want to marry but once a guy wants to marry, all his relatives would want to influence his choice |

Go nd make peace with ur parents. You sure need their blessing. Beg them nd make them reason with you. Getting impostors doesnt make sense. |

sinaj: I love a lady with all my heart. She loves me back too We have been through thick and thin. I have even enquired from God Almighty if I should go ahead and wife her and I got an affirmative reply. Now my mum and dad does not like her because of her tribe or whatever reason they have And you SINAJ is saying I need to beg them to like her because I need parental blessings?? You are making it look like our parents are always right 5 Likes |

izzou: He said that he is even ready to go and pay people who would stand as his parents if need be This is the part I dnt support. You dont have to blank them out of your life just because they not always right. I believe op has uncles/elders dat can talk to his parents or represent them if need be. Never let anybody or issue tear your family apart. |

sinaj: That was why I suggested he talks to older people, because I don't know what transpired that made him decide to blank them out As for the scenario I gave, I will gladly pay someone to be my parent if my real parents failed to support or be there for me How will my father or mother deny me the opportunity to marry the love of my life because they don't like her tribe? Sometimes, family has to be torn apart for us to have peace and sanity 1 Like |

Jman06: Please go and tell your friend not to ignore the opinion of his parents in a matter like this... Tribal cohesion is VERY important in marriage! |
