See previous topic https://www.nairaland.com/8660227/nigerian-couple-tear-marriage-certificate#139206262 I believe you have seen the video of the couple in the attached pic tearing a purported marriage certificate. For a fact, what they're tearing in that video is not a government-issued marriage certificate. An original marriage is rectangular with black or green ink and the seal of the Federal Republic of Nigeria on top. The one they are tearing was probably gotten from their village. Two, anything carrying the seal and coat of arms of the Federal Republic of Nigeria doesn't belong to you, you are only the custodian of it. Example, Passport, Currency, Govt-issued certs, I.D cards, etc. So you can't destroy them. Destroying them is playing with fines or jail. I repeat, any thing with coat of arms on it from the govt belong exclusively to the Federal Govt. Methinks me, learned this was done to signify they will never divorce. Ignorance of the best version. Marriage transcends that paper and it is done at home with two people who are ready and willing to work for its success. Tearing a piece of paper will not prevent shi if you don't put effort into it working. Lasty, apart from the use of marriage certificate to prove marriage, what are the other uses of the certificate? 30 Likes

Both of dem nor get sense. Since their intention is never to get divorced, I wonder why they didn’t just enter a traditional blood covenant in secret and invite Kanayo O. Kanayo to officiate. 56 Likes |

 . The certified true copy can be gotten from the registry if it is through that, unless the church is not licensed. It is a waste of time. Also, they can redo it at Ikoyi and get another cert.As for divorce...if there are no issues of property or child custody, people just go their separate ways in Nigeria today and start afresh somewhere else. That is why our divorce rate, although moving towards a high percentage is still considered low because there is no record...some divorce through Islamic and traditional ways, etc. 1 Like |
