Man Leaves US After Divorce Over Infidelity Allegations
A Nigerian man has sparked online discussions after claiming that his uncle voluntarily returned to Nigeria following a divorce in the United States over allegations of repeated infidelity. The nephew shared the story on social media, detailing how his uncle's marriage unraveled after years of building wealth in Nigeria before relocating with his family to the US.
Divorce Proceedings and Financial Demands
According to the nephew, the wife filed for divorce citing her husband's repeated infidelity, though the last incident occurred about 15 years before the proceedings. The divorce became financially draining as the woman reportedly sought child support, claimed ownership of two houses in the US, and requested alimony. The nephew stated: "He cheated multiple times, but the last time was about 15 years ago. She brought it up, divorced him, took child support, took his two houses in the U.S. and still wanted alimony."
Self-Deportation and Legal Strategy
Instead of continuing the legal battle in the US, the uncle allegedly chose to self-deport to Nigeria. He reportedly told his ex-wife that if she wanted to pursue alimony further, she could do so in Nigeria. The nephew claimed that years later, the ex-wife lost both properties because she could not afford their upkeep.
Daughter's Reconciliation
The story took a positive turn when the couple's eldest daughter, after turning 24, traveled to Nigeria to find her father. The nephew recounted: "He told them to come to Nigeria if they wanted to fight for alimony. Years later, when his eldest daughter turned 24, she came to Nigeria to look for him. He explained everything to her, and she forgave him. They reconnected." The father-daughter relationship was rebuilt after years of separation.
Social Media Reactions
The story generated mixed reactions online. One user, @Cyprusmachnws8, commented: "When you tell people that you're better off single, they will not agree." Another, @EO_Apple_Store, speculated: "I believe she has been a side chick to another man in the USA all these years while her husband went back to Nigeria. Senseless woman." Meanwhile, @lizzi143 noted: "Men do vindictive things to women every day for the smallest reason. Next time your uncle should not cheat."
