Also since I'm currently in my final year in the university, I don't know how possible it is to change my name in school, I can't enquire now cos we're on holidays. I just want to know if anyone has successfully changed their name in school too and process it took.

Leave the school documents as it is.
You will always attach your Change of Name affidavit to your documents.Unfortunately, Nigeria is so messed up that what they don't understand becomes illegal.So you must deal with this, the good news is your offsprings will not.


As for the bank, you can visit them and take the necessary steps which will require your affidavit, but my guy, even me sef have submitted my documents, including marriage certificate for more than 3 yrs now and my banks stl uses my old name.

Intergrated:

OK I have read your response

You have the right to bear your father's name or your mother's name as the case may be

Now if you want to bear both parents surname, you have to identify exactly which family you want to belong for life

If you want to be identified with your mums family, good and fine, his sibblings will have to be informed officially and they will embrace and welcome you by adopting you into the family

By doing so, you bear their names, have inheritance with them and have a share or assets and liabilities of the family

And you will settle down in their family as your original root

When you marry you bring her their she settles their have her kids their and they are part of the kindred of that family and that's how uoir own generations will go along and follow suit, whether you are still alive or not a

They will have to swore and affidavit and newspaper publication to that and you are now identified with them ab their son and brother

But if you know that you will return to your father's family at the end of the day, keep the name and don't change it.

Left for me, having understood your mind, I think you should go along yuoir mum family, if they will accept you as their son and brother

After all these are done, then you will use those documents to have a change of surname in national ID and international passport

As for uoir school, wait until you graduate before effecting any change
. The reason being that uoir mother families will seat and have several meetings before they will come to conclusion

I wish you good luck

oil dey your head. For this reply, i'm following you.

I pray this does not affect him tomorrow. There is this family Where their father, wanted contesting election back then, it was trouble, thanks to God and the man's brothers (cousins from the mother side), the people said no that the man is not from there, I'm talking of a place the man's father married from, got lands, settled, birth all his kids including the man, brought his siblings and they use there as their home town, with the bit of influence they have and what they brought to all that side, the people are still rejecting them.

I wish him well.

Oh thanks a lot, but can i use the new name for Masters? or PGD?

It's really annoying, I've been to the bank, officially changed the name, they even confirmed that the new name is what's on their system, so i just don't know why this is happening. I've been thinking of going to close all the accounts and reopen them with the new name

You can.

But I advice you continue with the old name for all your academic pursuit. Including your international passport if you wish to do it abroad please to avoid stress.


Your happiness should be that your kids will start on a fresh plate.

But landed documents/ properties and other non academic official documents should be in your new names.

I just want peace! When i die, make dem carry me go cemetery, Life's not hard, na we dey try complicate am with the kind if restrictions wey we dey put ourselves.

My kids are also not going to be raised here with this your mentality, so this does not affect me in any way.

Lol, you didn't talk to me directly but you're talking about me oga!! It's obvious you couldn't talk to me directly cos you yourself know say wetin you wan talk no follow. Nothing is going to happen one day one day as you've said, your statement just proves that you're likely to become a deadbeat or you're one already sef, you're merely defending your kind
