How Do You Gain Complete Custody Of A Child Born Out Of Wedlock? by Shalomdee(f): 6:30pm On Sep 25, 2017
Hey guys, I really need your advice. A woman got pregnant for a schoolmate in Higher Institution, the guy actually impregnated her deliberately because he wanted her to be trapped with him. This guy is of a very dubious character and has duped a lot of people and done a lot of fraudulent things. When the lady found out all the wicked things he was into (along with getting involved in diabolic stuff), she decided to call it quitts after she was delivered of the child (female). The guy threatened her with all manner of threats but she refused to go back on her decision.

After a few years she eventually met a young man genuinely interested in her who wants to marry her, the lady is scared of commitement because she does not want a situation where she would get married and the ex would come back to demand for his child and make trouble. She does not want to give her ex custody of the child because of his dubious and wicked character.

Is there a law in the country that would support her as the mother of the child to have complete custody of the child since the child was born out of wedlock? Can her new husband formally adopt the child as his legally?

Please lawyers and people with such knowledge should comment. Mods, take this to front page as it is a very delicate situation.

Where are the family lawyers?

This is a lesson to women. Before you open your legs and allow that negro pour his seed into you, make sure he is someone who will not waste your destiny if you do get pregnant for him.

yes there is, But you have to go to court to apply for custody. note that the court MAY grant him visitation rights and access to see his daughter

pls do not confuse American law with Nigerian law. they are two completely different things.

The law doesn't care whether bride price was paid or not, so long as the man is the father of the child he has a right to the child.

op you have a very good chance of getting custody.

Let's wait for those that will come to pass judgement on the lady's character instead of answering poster's question.

If the girl is igbo from Anambra state then she has no problem. It is her father's child because the man (impregnator) did not pay bride price. He just a sperm donor. In my clan we say "ejiro nwa eme ogo" you don't give up a child as favour.

You should have gained complete custody by keeping your legs closed in the first place so you will change the paternity of the poor child if and when your current guy dump you same as the next guy after that.


Before the child turn 10 sef she will have changed clubs/father like 17 times.

She does not really need any serious litigations to go into any marriage since the guy never married her legally.

However, she can never deny the child her paternity citing any reason.

What she need to do is to inform her new man, go on and marry him then move into her new husbands house with the child.

If the school guy comes for the child, then she should go to court. The base judgment is that the guy should be bringing money for the upkeep of the child while she stay to grow with the mother. When she grows up, then she can decides the level of her relationship with her real father.

You can never deny a kid his/her paternity. NEVER. Before u open legs, think twice.

The moment your friend gets married to that said guy, she as a mother can appoint her husband as a guardian to her daughter..Although her ex under the law has a full claim to the child whether being born out of wedlock or not but the court won't grant him custody of the child not when she appoints her husband as a guardian to the child since her Ex he's yet to do that and they are both not legally married..In essence get married to this guy and ask the court to appoint him as a guardian to the child while stating your reasons..
pls this is just my general knowledge of family law
Note: Guardianship is more like parenting but a bit different..A guardian has the duty and right to protect the life and property of the child and he's legally appointed by the father of the child or both parents of the child.

Before i start i don't think the advice would be any different if you admit you are the person in question.

You don't have a strong reason(irresponsible father,woman beater,not financially capable and the likes) to get full custody of the child but don't be suprised if the custody is granted to him.

Not really.

If the man is dangerous and as the op portrayed him to be. The court can grant the mother 100% custody. And the if the mother have messages , emails, voicemails of threats from the father. The mother can also file a restraining order.

you didn't proffer a solution.... simply kill one of the spouse or make him appear very bad in the eyes of the law.
Or make him join the army.

Best solution is to contract some assassins and have him killed.

Nigerians have no regard for court rulings, so no need.

You better kill that nigga before he kidnaps your daughter and leave you heartbroken.

Do it fast ooooo.

If u think sending assassins after him is very callous, then contact one baba from ijebu ode.
He will do a neat job.

Did you just say the guy impregnate her deliberately? I think your statement would have been better off "the girl got pregnant for him deliberately" how can a guy impregnate her deliberately, was it without her consent? Did he remove her brain and keep somewhere while stripping her naked? How come was it after she got pregnant that she knew of his flaws? Abeg make una shift one side with your one sided story jo. No make me pour out my anger on una abeg.
