To every one who contributed, I'm so so grateful. THANK YOU

The issue my husband had with the police was on immigration matters and he did not do time in prison. Also , in as much as my children's future means the best to me, don't you also think it is best if both a mother and father raise their kids in as much as they re both alive? I feel their dad is missing out on their growing up years.

thank you everybody, i'm very grateful. I feel somewhat relieved. May God meet you all at the point of ur needs. More advice still needed though. cheers

Hello Nairalanders. I'm in a dire need of your advice. Pls tell me what you'd do, if you were in my shoes.

I live in The UK presently and i'v been here since 2004 with my husband. In 2005 , my husband had some police issues , so he had to go back to Nigeria and due to this incident, he can NEVER come back to the UK. I am here with a set of twins, 2 boys who i had in 2006 few months after he left, and i've been struggling day in day out to cater for our children. To be honest with you, my husband gives us a monthly allowance of 350pounds, which in NGN is alot of my ., so my expenses is cut with his help.He has a business in Nigeria and he is VERY HARD WORKING. I must also tell you that he's very loving and a God fearing person who doesn't cheat(one should not trust men though).
My main dilemma is should i go relocate to Nigeria with my children , but that forfeits us being able to get the Uk citizenship or stay back in the UK for another 5yrs plus to get the citizenship and the children will only know their father when they re about 8yrs old? Also consider the side of (body no be fire wood) for both of us. I have a degree from a nigerian uni and some professional certicates from the Uk., so i think getting a job should be kinda easy as i was working before i left Nigeria.
Pls help a sister out, as this gives me sleepless nights. I'm planning to move by the first quarter of 2009.
British citienship for me and kids or a happy family life?
