got married here in Nigeria at Amac registry in Abuja on 11th Feb this year. Then he went back to UK with the marriage certificate that he's going to process papers for me to join him in the UK.
So when he left for UK, he later sent me money to do my passport which he ordered me to use his name as my surname since we're now husband and wife legally and I obeyed by doing as he said. He then asked me to scan the passport and send to him which I did but to my surprise he just called off the marriage three weeks later.
I cried and begged him to tell me my offence but he said that I didn't offend him in any way, that he is just no longer interested, I kept quiet. You know why? Because my parents are not aware of the court marriage cos they objected it when I consulted them concerning the court marriage cos they prefer church marriage which I later told him about it and he said we should do it secretly without letting any of my family members know about it.
He blocked me on every social media so I can't get in touch with him, even if I type his name is can't see him. I'm just in the middle of nowhere since March, I'm confused and I don't know what to do. Please I really need your advice ma.
Thank you and God bless.
Well in as much as your families doesn't know about your marriage, you are married in accordance with the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
What that means is that you must file for the dissolution of your marriage in a court of competent jurisdiction before you can be free to remarry again.
Even though the foundation of your marriage was fraud, it doesn't change the fact that your marriage certificate is a valid tender and will stand against you in the future if you don't dissolve the marriage.
If all other intervention and reconciliation processes fail, please consider filing for divorce so that you can set yourself free from him.
I need not preach to you because the lessons are already staring at you.
Not everyone who has money or lives abroad have the emotional and mental maturity for marriage. Perhaps he was already married there but you had little or no idea.
So sorry about what happened, cheer up and move on with your life.
