Hi, i have been in a relationship with a married man who is married under customary marriage. He has so far kept me as his wife and we have plans of getting married under the customary laws but the problem is that the 1st wife has become a threat in this relationship. Does the law or will the Law protect my marriage?

However, Christian marriages are strictly monogamous and hence he does not meet the capacity to contract a christian marriage since he is already married. Therefore, the latter marriage is null and void

Customary Marriages have been recognized both by The Constitution in Article 45(4) and in the Marriage Act Part V. They are polygamous marriages so i think the husband can marry another wife at his will not unless during your marriage you converted the polygamous marriage to a monogamous marriage.

Yes.You can file using your legal team.Filing is not in contention.But hearing you must be present unless circumstances spelt out by law allow.

This has been very instrumental to the well-being and protection of family values through marriage.
The government will have to intensify the fight against kangaroo courts that jeopardize
