Cassava is made for fufu nd eba. Shebi u know when u use sugar milk milo nd groundnut with honey u are abusing it right? But still yet u are not arrested or queried for it.

Then everybody would be an ex convict because nobody is innocent, even your so called pastors and alfas, they’re the worst.

Without good food and sex, this world would be a terrible boring place, so nobody should be jailed for indulging in it. But you just have to use your sense and not abuse it, that’s all.

U r nothing but an infidel. No wonder God made sure that He disgraced d Pandora Pitobi otherwise, people like u would've turned this country to Sodom and Gomorrah.

Fuckyoumod:
so why are they all not in prison?
Because they usually divorce before committing the infidelity

Or alternatively upgrade the potential side chick into their next wife

To find a marriage still intact is something one should be grateful for.

So many conditions have to be met before this. So it's not easy as you see it here. Get a seasoned lawyer on marriage laws and you will see its not easy

It's high time it's passed into law as a crime and punishable with at least 7yrs imprisonment with no option or fine.
Whoever can't be faithful should remain single for life.

They should also legalize polygamy then

is it in the law or not ? I don't care about the general let's talk specific... And as you can see there is prison sentence attached to provable cases of adultery ... I wan informed of it when I was wedding so that is why I know ... I was even told it was 6 years come to find out it's 2 years ... But there is provision for that in ours country's laws

Calm down alaye. Lol.
Who is an infidel?
The oyinbo people who coined that word for you have left you behind and are now into same sex marriage.

This life isn’t as hard as you religious people take it, just have fun in moderation and don’t hurt others, that’s all. So stop following your fellow humans and use your brain.

I’m even speaking more for men cos it medically proven that less frequent sex is dangerous for you, and here you are insulting me.

Lastly, I’m Batified so I’m glad that lying anambra petty trader didn’t win too.

If you are broke now doesn’t mean you won’t cheat when you get money.Men are polygamous in nature,I mean those that has money
Is either you cheat or marry many wives,that is irony of life.
As a man,there is 99.99 tendency that you will cheat if you have money

You can go against a contract. That is a crime. Doing so is punishable by law.

Breaking a contract is not a crime and it is not punishable by any law

Adultry is a crime under the penal code which applies up north.

Under the criminal code which applies down south, it is not.

Should it be a crime? No - because it is a civil or private matter that does not concern the society.

It should actually be a crime especially if married couples go to the registry to sign any document agreeing to be husband and wife.
Anybody who breach the agreement should server some form of punishment. No party should cheat when both of you have already agreed to be together. If you cannot stay with a partner, then don't get married and sign the agreement.

With your last sentence, it is important you notify anyone that wants a serious relationship with you beforehand that you are not created for one person alone so that the person will know what he is going into.

Isn't breach of the same contract settled in court also? ... court case named " divorce"? What else do you want?... prison time added?

Haha! Your analogy is wayyyyy off.
Two agree to burn down someone's poultry farm, they go to prison for crime committed.
One partner engage in infidelity against you, that means oath broken, the best you get is divorce and settlement.

The law governing Southern Nigeria (Criminal Code) provides that Adultery is NOT a crime.

However, the Penal Code predominantly used in Northern Nigeria makes Adultery a crime in their parts.

For women only
