Definitely not poor anywhere in the world. Even based on current exchange rates.

Home rights are also applicable if the residence is a rented property, the link I sent above only deal with mortgaged properties.

In this scenario, since the property is rented and the lease is in the name of the wife and they are still legally married, the husband have matrimonial home rights to the rented property unless a court order states otherwise.

This is another legal angle if the property is rented.

You are right on this. Thanks for the links. She needs a court ruling before she can kick him out regardless of tendency. Apparently, he can get council help only if he does not leave of his own accord too. Explains the recording and request for case number.

linearity:


A friend who came to visit, came to visit...they don’t have any home right in UK law.

And the fact that it is only her name that is on the lease does not mean anything and does not breach the husband’s home rights.

Take some time to read this the link below and other referenced links about UK Matrimonial Home Rights:

https://rightsofwomen.org.uk/get-information/family-law/marriage-your-rights-to-your-home/

I read it and I think you should read it also. Matrimonial home rights only apply if you or your spouse solely own the home. That’s not the case here.

According to the link , if youR spouse co-owns it with someone else, you don’t have any rights to it. It gets a lot more complicated.

In the story here, the wife and the husband do not OWN the house. It’s a rental. Listen again.

linearity:


Absent of a pre-nuptials agreement, all properties acquired after marriage are jointly owned on a 50-50 pro-rated bases, it does not matter whose name is in what and if one person is working and the other is not.

And no, the Judge does not decide if it is 50-50, that is the law; the Judge decides who gets what base on their previous earning capacity, who the kids will be with, and in the case of residence the home is usually given to the party that the kids will be with, but the interest of the other party will be protected.

Sometimes the value of the home will be accessed and if given to the person that will be staying with the kid, the other individual will be given their pro-rates share of the value of that home in their settlement agreement.

All properties are subject to the same rule, including rental properties. This is call “Matrimonial Home Rights” in the UK. The law protects the individual whose name is not on the lease and they both have equal rights to the home, only a Judge can decide otherwise...a Police cannot just show up when one partner called and kick the other out absence a domestic violence report.

Read the law below:
https://rightsofwomen.org.uk/get-information/family-law/marriage-your-rights-to-your-home/

Sir, you are correct on what you’ve posted except for one small important thing, the house is not an acquired property here. It does not belong to any of them and so can’t be considered Under the 50-50 rule.
When he is moving out, he can make claims to Specific items as he moves out. If she disputes it, then the courts or ombudsmen will rule on division if necessary but we haven’t gotten there yet in this video.

As the house is not an acquired property here, the residency rights is up to the person who has signed the lease. Married or not.

Now, if they owned the house, things become a bit more complicated. It does not mean he can’t be kicked out but the process of a lot more involved other than the simple process of calling the cops. Did you see where the cops had to prove residency first?
Have you seen the ‘ breakup’ Movie where they both stayed because they were both in the lease?

If they owned, the cops can only move him in case of violence, restraining order or court order.

linearity:


I didn’t say, you can’t be evicted.

You can only be evicted through a court order. The lease holder can not wake, call the cops and get you kick out, absent a domestic violence or assault, they have to go through the proper legal eviction process.

Sir, I think you are mixing it up. Not all evictions, for lack of a better word, need to go through the courts. The cops are usually called to enable a smooth process, ensure there is no public breach of peace, or avoid violence in the process.
Let me put it to you in another perspective - if a friend visits you and stays for a month and you want them to leave. If they refuse, will you need to go through the law courts? No, you can get the cops to help you lawfully remove them. In this case, if you remove sentiments from it, the husband has just as much rights as the friend, None.

The wife is the only one on the lease, hence she has all the rights. She can lawfully remove anyone else she doesn’t want in there, including husband, family, children, friends as she so wishes. That’s the law. So what transpired between the husband and wife here is a lawful removal process.
The husband should have made other arrangements when he knew his wife wanted him out. Because he already knew previously. Instead, he went to council to council to get case officers etc.

Why stay where you are not wanted? Especially when you don’t have much rights.

linearity:


Not true!

There are many reasons couples don’t put both of their names on a tenancy agreement or mortgage note and in many situations it is a prudent financial decision.

If you are married you cannot be kicked out merely because your name is not on a tenancy or mortgage note.

What the cops did above is an illegal eviction and they can get in trouble for it, at least a re-training, if the guy pursue the case against them.

Yes you can be evicted on the lease holder’s mood swings if he or she wants. Married or not.
There are pros and cons to all the choices you make as a couple. Married or not, doesn’t give you residency anywhere. It’s whose name is on the papers.

That is not an illegal eviction. They are totally within their rights. If his name is not on the lease, he lives there as long as the lease holder permits. End of story. And I’m not here to debate the state of their relationship or reasons. That’s their wahala.

Kingstanding:
. Even if the man bought the house before getting married to her, he will still going to leave the house for the woman. European law favour women too much. Think twice before you take your wife to abroad. Though we still have reliable women but the percentage is very slim.

Not always the case, depending on children and custody.

linearity:


I can tell you that, what those police did is illegal and he can get compensated fir the violation of his right if he sues them.

Absent a domestic violence, a police can’t show up and ask someone to leave their home. It does not matter who owns or renting the house, they are married therefore irrespective of ownership, it is joint property with 50-50 ownership.

If she wants him to leave, she can do that by causing a friction, argument or instigate something and if the guy is so naive or stupid to lay his hands on her, then he gets kick out.

The other way to get him out, is to file an eviction notice with the court and a Judge will hear the case and render a decision and an order.

Don’t be fooled. There is no violation of rights here, no 50-50. Only a law court can determine if it’s to be shared 50-50. Even at that, this is a tenancy, not outright ownership. So residence is up to the person on the lease. If his name is not on it, his rights of residency is as long as she allows it.

Why is his name not on the tenancy? A sign he doesn’t pay the bills? Husband or not, if he doesn’t pay the bills, he’s left himself open to what happened.
No one can kick you out on a house you are paying the bill with name on it. If they tried that, then leave the bills to them and sort your yourself out.

I guess alot of you here are all tired of me posting several pictures of my fiance here...... Be tired no more as this is the very one you all wish to see..... Join us in Makurdi Benue State as we walk down the aisle on the 7th day of September 2019

Congrats!
Your wife to be related to Miss Sahhra?

He's your elder brother. He should be doing things for you and not the other way round. I know you put that into consideration before you do a lot of things you do for him.
But you need to give it more consideration. He's headed down the wrong path you are encouraging him at your own detriment.
You've worked hard for you things in life but you are giving it all to someone who doesn't appreciate your hardwork. He feels entitled and you are enabling him. Keep it up and it will only get worse.

It's time to cut him off. Just like you have worked hard to get to where you are, its time for him to do the same. He''ll eventually appreciate you for it. Take your car back. Give him some space and let him fend for himself. If your sister asks you to help him out, tell her its her turn to take responsibility for him.

Ask yourself, what would you do if it was a stranger? Then do it.

Goodluck.

Most people are against the bill just cos of ignorance. How many people actually took the time to read the bill? All they heard is equality. Illiterates.

In modern power systems, UG cablings are made to be so robust that they hardly need maintenance. Fault Analysis are simulated (computer based) and pulses sent through the underground lines to detect where the line is open circuited. So you don't need to dig up a while lot of earth to identify fault area.
The pros of UG cabling far outweighs the cons.

I disagree on the pros outweighing the cons. While yes, it is possible to do a HiPot test on HV cables to determine which ones are faulty, I'm not so sure about it pointing out the very location of damage. Now you might be referring to some other tests I do not know at this time, I still maintain there is a lot of costs and maintenance involved in U/G cabling. Think about the process involved in doing a fault analysis on a cable. I'd imagine you'd have to ensure first it is disconnected on one end, and that would be some work for larger sized HV cables. Then there is the amount of trenching involved in installing or repairing UG cables. That cost can be enormous. There is also the issue involved with other buried services and expensive checks in the area to ensure that you do not damage other buried services in area.
In a less regulated society and less technologically advanced country like Nigeria, you'd be posing a serious safety risk to the public.

All I am saying is, there is a lot more on the decision to go underground on cables. In some cases, it would make perfect sense, in others, it may need some more examination before proceeding.

flyca:
As an aside:
Overhead distribution lines spoils the esthetics of the environment. Underground wiring is the way to go. I write these because one day, someone reading here will be in the position to chanhe things. Bless!

There's a lot of maintenance involved in using U/G cabling and facilities. Don't be so quick to go either way without considering its pros and cons.

That car is a road hazard.

Those numbers are padded to make it look sensational.
First of all - those numbers are annual, not monthly
Why include one off payments like severance and car allowance in annual payments?

And yes, I agree, its still a lot but at least bring the right facts for your arguments.

That's not armoured cable

immaturity across board.

If you read the thread, you will see where i wrote:



Also its "worshipers" not "worshippers".
Now i wonder who should be wondering which school who attends.

BTW, i'm not GEJ worshiper but a Nigerian who wants the development of his country.

Both 'worshiper' and 'worshipper' are correct depending on origin. 'Worshipper' is British way (and Nigerian) of writing it.

All the policemen and soldiers involved in this case should be reprimanded and sacked. What a disgraceful episode to the uniform!

Do they realize they are disrupting traffic? How different are they from rioters and hooligans who do the same?

The poster was wrong. Instead of saying that Pastor Enoch Adeboye went to Aso Rock to meet PMB, he said it it the other way round. Between the two of them who went to see each other.
I think the SW Christians are selling themselves so each cheap to Islam Fr. Mbaka tried it and the SEasteners tongue-lashed him.
4 out of 6 states in the SW have muslim governors and U people say U are running the biggest churches in Nigeria. I pity people who troop to your churches. I pray in my house and God answers me.
I am not trying to mix tribalism with Christianity but I have seen that the Sw Christians do not allow their Adamic nature to die, rather they boast in hypocrisy.

You just mixed tribalism, religion and politics. Kudos.

Beadex1:
lol.... am done with school....or do I look dat small

Which school? Sec or Uni? If Uni, Go back to school for your masters.

Go and face your books.

This is probably not what you want to hear but bro, you are also the problem. You can blame your wife all you want, but you need to look inward too.
Your relationship lacks serious compromise. You are two different people - she wants you to be like her and you want her to be just like you. The very thing that you hate is the very same thing that you are doing. I know you think what you want is what's good for the family, and guess what, she thinks what she wants is whats good for the family. Getting my drift. Talk about it, and compromise. Find a middle ground.

And when you talk about it, be sure not to let the conversation go out of hand. It's very easy to let emotions override things and turn it into a fight.

Dude, show your wife some love too. Go read up on the five love languages (its a short read) and figure out what how your wife likes to receive love and what she appreciates. Then show it to her the way she understands.Bro, I must tell you, I know you are not perfect and all, but following your posts, you don't seem to have been a good husband to her in all. And NEVER EVER hit your wife please. Your role as protector does not include physical abuse. When your wife feels you love her, her attitude towards you will be more understanding of your needs. She doesn't feel it at the moment. That's why she will suggest her getting three kids and going her way. It just means you have failed as husband. So first of all, look within yourself and try to win your wife's love back. It will take time, but its what you need to do.

An advice ....In a marriage, Men are supposed to take care of the big things while women take care of the little things. So let the men worry about big things like bringing home the bacon, world famine, political solutions to the country's quagmire, and let the woman take care of the little things like running the household. A happy wife is a happy home. You like to be in control of things, but let your wife run the house and stop invading her perceived role.

Your wife's feelings and needs are just as valid as yours. I have seen marriages turn around positively so I know its possible.May God guide you.

Forgive me but this is funny
Sorry



Smh

Yeah I saw that part. However, be nice . You better pass this sis.

You were hired in November, and fired in January. Many jobs have a probationary period where you can terminated without cause.
If you were still in probation, then there is nothing you can do.

Best of Luck

#all the pun intended

You right on point. The hissing added the salt and insult to injury sef

As a student, your main responsibility is to your academics. You are meant to excel in it. If you fail in your main responsibility, why should anyone trust you with another bigger one like a job?
Yes, some people are not meant for academics. In that case, they should not be in school in the first place. They should focus on what they excel at.

Nonsense

2sex:
Good to know bro. I was really worried with the way you weaved your post. People go through a lot and they are not from very good family as some people could wonder why she didn't consult her family member. I speak from experience. If not that I have personal plans this year and a target, I could have requested for her bank account and forward the money.

The way and manner people were already attacking the lady is very funny. I have seen a lot in life that makes me never attack people for their own mistakes.... even if I find a girl forking around for money, I wont blame her.

Surprise? Am I supporting such? Definitely not.

The fact that you know such is wrong does not mean someone else does because imagine growing up in an environment where people seeing it as norm makes it even harder. These kind of people don't know any other world aside that.

People are so quick to cast blames... but I have come to realise we are like chemical reactions. There is a universal chemical law that states that every chemical elements, when put together, react same, no matter if the reaction took place in US or Nigeria, under standard temprature and pressure. Which means when Hydrogen and Oxygen are mixed in US, they produce water. Bring them to Nigeria and you would get same results.

What I am trying to say in essence is that you who are blaming the lady would do same if you were raised in same family she sprang from, grew up in same environment, had same friends for years and do everything she did till she got to this age.

This further means you should be grateful that you even know such is wrong, many and a lot out there don't know because of how they are raised.

If you mix hydrogen and oxygen under standard temperature and pressure, you get water? Have you tried it?

Got married two years ago to a now 34year old man, and I am 26. Met him through my mum when he came into the country 3years ago, so we dated for about 9months. We got married but he had to remain in canada while I stayed back.


Truth be told, I never loved him. He's rich, okay-looking, charming and all but I just do not love him. I married him cos I kinda saw him as a clean slate, a chance to start anew cos I have lived life, done things that I am not proud of, gotten heart broken. And I just don't want kids with a man I do not love. They say u can fall in love after marriage but not here, I just admire my husband.

Hubby comes home in December and stays through to february. I kept d pills in an empty bottle of multivitamins but never thought he'ld look closely at d inscriptions on the tablets cos I had gotten away with it the past years. No one has been on my neck about getting pregnant though.


He was so angry I thought he'ld throw me out that night. He's been sleeping in d guests', doesn't eat my food, he says I am a selfish and wicked woman. I'm sooooo scared he'll call my parents, I'll just die.


Do I just walk out now and risk my parents knowing what really happend? Will I find such a gentle man again? Do I get pregnant? will I love my kids? He's such a wonderful man but I don't love him!!!



PS: I never cheated on him

This is why it's difficult for diaspora folks to trust the love of a naija woman.
I think previous comments have done justice to my opinion
