“Leaving Your Spouse To Marry Another Person is a Criminal Offence” Where a spouse abandons his/her partner of an English marriage without a divorce and proceeds to marry another person, such a spouse has committed a crime. The crime is bigamy and punishable with 7 years imprisonment. Note that bigamy is no longer a crime in Lagos state. See section 370 of Criminal Code, The Penal Code and the Lagos State Criminal Code. #DailyLawTips #LearnNigerianLaws #SabiLaw To receive our Daily Law Tips for free follow our Facebook page, Twitter or Instagram via “LearnNigerianLaws”.
