A 26-year-old Nigerian woman has sparked intense debate online after revealing that her husband allegedly lied about his age before their marriage.
The woman, who recently got married in December, shared her ordeal on X, explaining that her husband consistently told her he was 34 while they were dating.
Her discovery came unexpectedly while sorting through his personal documents, where she reportedly found an international passport indicating a birth year of 1972.
The document showed that her husband is actually 51 years old, a revelation that left her emotionally shattered.
She said she has been in tears since uncovering the truth and felt further distressed by her husband’s response when confronted.
According to her, he downplayed the issue, insisting that age is merely a number and claiming ignorance of his real age.
The woman expressed regret over her decision, noting that she had previously declined a younger suitor, and now fears the long-term implications of the age gap on her future.
