Nigerian lady seeks help on what to do online after finding herself in a situation. According to the unidentified lady, she was pushed into marrying a man abroad when she was only 18 years old. Her parents were very poor and her being their only daughter and child, she had to listen to the advice of her parents and go ahead with the marriage so they could at least be comfortable for once in life. Going forward she revealed that, she never got to see her husband until two weeks before the wedding, everything went on fine and after the wedding, her husband had to return to Europe, so she had to stay with her husband's brother and her wife, along with her sister in law as well. 


Things began going on well until they both developed a hatred for her and threw her out of the house, she further added that it’s been 9 years and the husband never called to ask why so she moved on, however recently she read that, since the bride price was not returned, she’s still married to her husband and so she seeks help from users on what to do since she can’t remember the way to the village of her husband.


Read the narration below;


“Good evening Wiz. This met be long but I desperately need advice. I was 18 when I got married. My supposed husband was based in Europe I never got to meet until two weeks before the marriage. My family needed the finical assistance and I'm an only daughter so it was a getaway from poverty I had no say lots of promises were made tho when he came back the traditional marriage rites were made and we had a traditional marriage and I moved in with the elder brother and his wife. The elder sister also had another girl on standby that she wanted the guy to marry she was older than me tho but he picked me when he came back. Everything was going well till fallouts started happening the elder brother was doing the opposite of everything he was meant to do and whenever he calls me to ask for information I'll say things I had no idea I wasn't meant to know. the elder sister on the hand still had the other girl waiting for him it got to a point the elder asked me to move out of his house so I went back to my parent's house and that was the end of the marriage. It's been years and I've forgotten bout it 1 don't even remember what he looks like But a few months back I got to learn that traditionally I'm still his wife until the bride price is returned but then again I also found out that since they never came back for the bride price that I should act like it never happened I asked my dad he agreed that the bride price needs to be returned but it's been years and he doesn't even remember the road to the village because everything happened so fast he finally got married to the 2nd girl so I heard back then and I heard the marriage was dissolved too. I'm 27 now and I'm confused and broken I don't even know how to go bout everything”.
