UK Visa: Nigerian Man Offers Ex-wife N7.9m After Abandoning Her and Their Children For 6 Years

• A Nigerian lady has shared how her ex-husband paid her N7.9 million after abandoning her and their children
• The woman said she had moved to the UK alongside her children and that her husband had abandoned them
• She said she struggled to take care of the children alone before her husband wanted to be in their lives after six years, so he paid her N7.9 million

A Nigerian woman who was abandoned by her ex-husband has shared the story of what happened after six years.

She said for the past six years, she has been the one taking care of her children. She is also taking care of them in the UK where she lives.

According to the woman identified on Facebook as Uloma Nwogu, her husband suddenly remembered her and the children after six years.

She said she had suffered a lot, even developing high blood pressure while hustling to care for the children.

But her husband extended an olive branch to her and said he wanted to be in the children's lives.

The man offered to pay her all she had spent on taking care of the kids' fees for the past six years. According to Uloma, her ex-husband paid her N7.9 million.

Her words:

"I came to the uk alone with children, I have been taking care of them alone for 6 years. I managed to Japa 2 years ago and the journey nearly destroyed me. I even developed BP in the process of single motherhood in this country. Fast forward to January this year, my children’s father showed up in my Facebook inbox and wanting to talk to me. After several calls, I gave him a listening ear. He said he wants to be in the children’s life and offered me money to add him to my visa. But he will pay me back the children's school fees in the last 6 years. I calculated N7.9M and he paid in 30 minutes. I cried so much because I used to beg this man to pay his children’s school fees and he will block me."

The man wants to get UK visa

However, after paying the money, Uloma said her ex-husband demanded that she should return to Nigeria.

He said he wants them to do a court wedding so that he can use the papers to apply for a visa and join her in the UK. She rejected the idea.

She said:

"He started calling to speak to the children. Just one month after he started demanding I return to nigeria for court marriage because it’s only traditional marriage we did, so that he can apply for visa, I blocked him. He went to arrest my mother and father, claiming they must provide me, that he paid me for visa and I scammed him. My brothers and sisters are dealing with him now: He should bring proof where I charged him for visa."

Effects of abandonment on kids

According to VeryWellMind, kids who were abandoned by either their fathers or mothers often have a persistent fear of a loved one leaving them in the future.

Added to this is also a lingering feeling of anxiety that things may go wrong in any relationship they are in.

Thinking in Educating gathered that kids from broken homes may not have total focus on their studies, which could significantly affect their academic performance.

Their personal development in terms of language learning, problem-solving skills, and other brain activities may be affected as the home environment is not conducive enough.
