Time

True talk

*It is a mistake to think that time is going. Time is not going.

Time is here until the world ends. It is you that is going. You don’t waste time.

Time is infinite. You waste yourself. You are finite. It is you that grows old and die. Time doesn’t.

So make better use of it. And one of the worst things to do with time is comparing yourself to others.

A cow eats grass and gets fat but if a dog eats it, it will die.

Never compare yourself with others. Run your race. What works for one person may not work for you.

Focus on the gifts and talents God gave you and don’t be envious of the blessings he gave others.*

Do share so others can benefit as well.

From the office of the Lagos State Administrator General & Public Trustees Office.

1. Dear married couples, there is no such legal personality known as "Mr and Mrs Okoro". You can only have "Mr Kenneth Okoro" or "Mrs Patricia Okoro".  You might just be creating a legal problem for yourselves when you use "Mr and Mrs Okoro" to buy those goods or properties.

2. Dear married couples (especially those who are married under the Act), all things been equal, it is adviced that you change your next of kin to your spouse after wedding from your sibling or anybody else you used before wedding. Making your spouse your next of kin makes it easier for them to process any accrued benefit especially if either of you die intestate ( without leaving a will).

3. Dear intending couples, there are only two types of marriages recognised in Nigeria;  1.Marriage under the Act (Matrimonial Causes Act and Marriage Act), 2. Marriage not under the Act (Marriage under Islamic Law and Marriage Under Customary Law). The first is monogamous in nature while the latter is restricted polygamous and unrestricted polygamous in nature. For intending couples of the christian faith, there is no such thing as "church wedding". If your church is a "licensed place of worship", what they conduct there is a "Marriage under the Act". If your church is not a licensed place of worship and you only conducted customary marriage without going to the marriage  registry, what they would have done in your church may just be a celebration and the blessing of your customary marriage.
If your church is a licensed place of worship, wedding in church and also going to the marriage regisrty are one and the same thing (Marriage Under the Act). Meaning a waste of resources and duplicity of purpose.

4. Dear Boyfriend and Girlfriend, promising your partner that you would marry them when you know you have no intention of doing so may give rise to a civil action of breach of promise to marry resulting in damages (compensation) and the restitution of all monies spent and gift given. It may also give rise to a criminal action of obtaining by false pretence.
-------------------------------------------------------------
As an addendum or footnote to 1 above -

If you are really interested in buying a property as a couple then your names should appear in the agreement as Mr. Sunday Essien and  Mrs. Maria Sunday Essien instead of Mr and Mrs Sunday Essien.
