I use European satellite at home not dstv so I watch some channels dstv don't offer and I see lots of divorce rates and how beneficial it is to women.have you wondered why most men in Europe are not married.partial systems that favors the women and against the men.they get the guys committed and encourage him to sweat and buy a house,then they set the men up with paid prostitutes that stalks the man until he falls and they have video recording to that effect.the rest you should know.Nigerian ladies are copying very fast.I don't encourage 2 wives syndrome but we have wicked women that wish our mothers dead so they can run us.this is AFRICA MEN SHINE YOUR EYES.
Lets forget Europe for a minute and concentrate on Nigeria as the same thing doesn't happen here, even what you call women being favoured is open for debate but not today.

Marriage here doesn't favour women as you are trying to say, instead the man gets away with almost anything.

How can we forget Europe when everything our women are doing is European.fake nails,fake ass,fake hair,fake eye lash and the list goes on.if she is rich and the guy is poor she might not consider court option.we are beginning to have hybrid women in our society so we men need to be careful.men watch your wives when they start keeping so many friends for she will most likely be corrupted when you talk she heads to court to take that your sweet house.not acceptable.

How do you know she won't agree to a court wedding if she's rich? As usual blame the women, men are saints.

She wants court marriage while he wants traditional marriage. This resulted to argument between Prince and Amaka who have been dating for 5yrs. Prince have propose to Amaka and the traditional knocking of door have been done. In the process of planning for the marriage, prince have insisted that he would only do the traditional marriage and later the church marriage, but Amaka insisted that she prefers a court marriage and later the traditional marriage. Amaka went further by telling prince its either the court marriage or no marriage at all, stating that court marriage would proof to her that Prince truely loves her and wants to protect her further with him. Prince on the other hand insisted that he would do the court marriage when he deems it fit. Amaka have threaten to break up the relationship. Prince is the only son in a family of four and is doing very well. Marriage preparation is 80% ready.

Should Prince concede to her or maintain his stand?
Is Amaka's stance right (using love as a yardstick to buttress her point)
do you smell any hidden agenda on the part of prince or Amaka.
In your candid opinion, do you think this marriage would work.

Prince = wealthy guy.

Amaka = unknown.

Relationship = 5 years.

Abortion = 5 times

Court marriage = Amaka

Traditional marriage = Prince

Possibility of pregnancy after marriage = not too sure.

Trusted by Prince = 5%

Reason for untrustworthy = she may kill him and sell all his properties.

Trusted by Amaka = 5%

Reason for untrustworthy = he may get a second wife if she could not produce a child as a result of constant abortion.

Possibility of both of then getting married = 35%

Reason = lack of trust and ulterior motive among both of them.

Yes, I am an african and a proud one at that.
Infact I am a cave man with a retro tendency,but more logical and advanced in thinking than you zombified brainwashed peeps,whose sixth sense have been hegemonically infested by the imperialist,with no mind of your own and live the life of emperialist just to please them.

It is a pity that you peeps still wallow in the swamp of ignorance and sees anything from the emperialist as progressive and your's has retrogressive.
That's the peak of mental slavery.
There is no way a counterfeit can be better than an original.
Quit being a copycat and have a mind of your own.


I have dated 4 white ladies and in no way,did they try to dictate life for me.I didn't even give room for such nonesense.
It is the way you present yourself,will you be taken.

Infact,my present GF is a brazilian and was a budhhist.i am the one who converted her to christainity.
So anytime I see you peeps use whites has reference,I begin to wonder if it's same white I know or from pluto

And about the embolded,it's good that you have your boundry,I only pity those "sissy" men you are planning to make your subjects.

It's not my business anyway

1. The lady wants a legal marriage certified by court, in case of a divorce in future. Court will protect her interest in regards to divorce settlement. Traditional (cultural) and Church (religious) marriages are not legally certified by court but accepted in the sociaty. That's why Embassies required a marriage document issued by the court.
It's an intelligent move on her part. She wants a protection under the law and probably doesn't trust the guy 100%.

2. I guess she didn't inform the guy earlier about this court stuff. She may be a manipulative type. She waited until it would be hard (Marriage preparation is 80% ready) for the guy to back down.

Or at the last minute, someone advised her to do it. Having an outsider dictate what happens to your marriage is bad.

3. Now she wants the poor guy to 'prove' his love for her by doing what she wants. Does she mean the guy has not proved his love for her during their 5-year courtship? If she's in doubt about it, why is she willing to marry him now? She'll always play this game on the guy whenever she wants him to do anything. Not good.

4. Having this type of major issue before marriage is not good, it should make anyone rethink.

5. If she was richer than the guy, she won't remember court marriage. She may be a little more interested in the guy's wealth.

I have no problem with court marriage, in fact, it's the best protection a married person has in Nigeria and abroad. For the fact that Nigerians are not used to court marriage (I did it after 7 years marriage, only to get my wive's visa), the lady should have discussed this earlier with her man, not now the marriage preparation is 80% finished. It has now become suspicious. The guy's parents may not want him to oblige.

In summary, the poor guy is about to marry trouble.

Whether you are a man or a woman it is a good idea to undertake a court wedding. It protects both of you in many ways. One scenario in each case.

Man - If you are well to do and God forbid, you die accidentally, your family cannot go and throw your wife out and say they own all your property. If you have kids, it is even worse. People can come and claim all your property then leave your wife and kids to suffer.

Woman - Above scenario plus the man cannot just throw you out and hope you do not have rights in whatever you have built together as a couple. A housewife married to a Billionaire is a contributor too even if the man is the only one with physical income.

I do not know how Nigeria Law works on Common Law Marriage but most countries that operate the British Common Law are considered married after living together for one year so this may be a moot point if these two have lived together for more than a year in their 5 year relationship.

they should do both traditional and couRt.


Court marriage doesn't cost much.


to me,TM n court is the entire marriage


Church wedding is just for show n formality and a lying opportunity where Pastor forces people to take vows they don't keep to.



But if both parties can't reach an agreement,they should go their separate ways.its not by force for them to marry!


I support Amaka's decision for court maRriage(although it shouldn't come first).Men are scared of it cos of what the court will do when they start displaying thier usual bad character towards the woman

court wedding is important. Amaka should not settle for less. It has nothing to do with money but a lot to do with polygamy. if there's no court wedding, prince can marry another wife since the marriage is not legal. except they sign the marriage certificate in the church.

Exactly.

wait o.if the church wedding is properly done then amaka has nothing to fear.not just blessing of marriage o.in family law,there are conditions for a marriage to be legally acceptable
1:the marriage should be registered at the registry.21 working days notice would then be posted infront of the registry office for anyone that wishes to oppose the narriage to come forth.
2:the wedding must take place in a recognised place of worship.that i a church that is duly registered.
3:the marriage must take place between certain hours.i think 10:00am to 4:00pm.(not very sure but something likevthat..
4:the wedding myst be conducted by a recognised minister.
note:after the wedding you get a certificate(usually3)the church has one,the couple has one and the registry has one
so amaka ask questions if you contract your wedding the aforementioned way it is valid abd legal
amaka bear in mind that conducting a marriage under the act(court marriage) does not show love.yes it is a sign of commitement but not love.infact with that divorce is almost a sure thing because even when the elders of thr family intervene in disputes a dissatisfied party msy run to the court and get what they want

Not everyone like that thing called church, mosque or court marriage. If 'security' is the problem and you feel signing a certificate would solve the insecurity problem (and i wonder how my signing dotted line on a marriage certificate can make you feel more secured), why then don't we try to get the marriage certificate signed during the traditional marriage?
