Would you permit your own wife to go see an ex school mate in his hotel room? Why didn't she wait at the reception?

aremubabs:



Oh, please, just shut it.



Does the man need emergency or round-the-clock care?




Is the woman a nurse?



I am sure you would not be justifying this if it was your wife that went to see a man in his hotel room.




Humans can be selfish sha. Something you can't take.

When you don't know the details of a story don't be quick to conclude or pass a judgement.
Do you know if the man has been the financial benefactor of the woman?
Do you know if the relationship between the woman and her husband is cordial or not?
Don't rush to crucify anyone for their action, if you don't know the details of the matter.
It is unfair to not give people the benefit of doubt.
If the location of their meeting wasn't in a HOTEL, may be in another friend's place (with only the two of them around in the house at the tine), would policemen have gone there to arrest them?

What is her name I want to tell her husband something!

Nigerian perception of hotels. When you are in Rome, behave like a Roman. Nigerians don't believe responsible people go to or work in hotels. They believe hotel is for adultery, fornication, prostitution and Yahoo Yahoo.

[quote author=complexstuffs post=123955549]

What an imbecilic way to justify adultery.

Was the man sick?
Is the married woman a nurse?
Was the hotel room a hospital?

Seriously, so you have already concluded that they both committed adultery or they were about to commit adultery?!
You know what is imbecilic?
It is your hasty and rash conclusion about a matter you know nothing about its details.
So, anyone who meets another person in a hotel room is there to commit adultery?
Your education and civilization are faulty and funny.
It is dangerous to be a linear thinker.
That's how terrorists are trained and raised - one way traffic thinking/reasoning.

See ehn,I always tell all my guys,learn to open your mind to the possibility of your wife cheating on you atleast once throughout the course of your marriage,if you ever intend to marry.
I've been opportune to role with some women in friendly gatherings and the things they say when they're with some of us they're comfortable with will shock you.
Put yourself first and don't make some insane sacrifices for anybody, neither should you trust all out like a naive person,including your WIFE!!!
Some men today with HIV got it from their wives,but because of their philandering ,they always think it came from them.
Women hardly cheat with condoms,they're always easy to tell you raw or some bs condom irritation story.
I always tell the girl I'm dating that if I should ever catch anything from her in the name of cheating,I'd put a 45 to her head and squeeze the trigger and anyone who tries to come to her defense will meet the same fate.
Sleep around all you want,I no send you,no just give me disease.
Ignorance is the only reason why many people are still married today,if them open their eyes,them go run.

Guy! I love this comment!
9 years of marriage now, wifey seems 100% faithful. Infact we are both careless with our phones... very open marriage but I can’t kill my seff with BP... I conditioned my mind exactly the way you’ve described it.

Reference:


Just passing by and a bit hesitant to reply but at the bolded.
have you actually read what you have written?
Please step back and read again what you have written, then jump into a vehicle, drive round the city to check out a few hotels, make some enquiries especially to the security men on duty and show them exactly what you have written here.

I know you are livid at the man for his actions but I am afraid that the law is only applied to offences committed not intended. And there is no proof of intention here as far as the report is concerned. Please do not confuse the law with morality.

Why do I need to drive around the city to show security men what I've written if you are not concerned about Morallity than the law itself.

I suppose you are trying to say that it's a natural phenomenon for a married woman to go into seclusion with a man inside an Hotel room, where a lobby/restaurant or common area exist.

Please do not insult my intelligence here. What I'm trying to point out is that, whosoever called the attention of the police did so rightfully under the penal law, and have every right to exercise such right.

If you say the Law is not concerned about intended crime, then the question you should answer is, if I suspect someone is about to commit murder, do I leave them to first commit the act, then respond by calling the police or call the police before they commit the offence?

There need to be a balance abeg.

The only argument that may sound lawfully right here is the unlawful detention of the man in question, any other talk apart from that can be approached in a 50:50 Legal and Moral perspective respectively.

Law cannot displace morals, especially when it comes to traditionally induced laws such as the penal code.

Shameless idiot
culturally it's wrong accomodating someone's wife in an hotel room penal code also criminalise such act hiding behind useless rights is a display foolishness

The hotel no get common area, bar, or open sit out area where you could chat with your MARRIED 'friend'?
You get liver carry person wife enter hotel room and still have the guts to claim human right?
All these abroad people once their leg touch naija na to discharge accumulated konji dey their mind.

Ordinarily, I wouldn't have contributed anything here because I know some of you are very crude, uncivilized and primitive. On the other hand, before I stopped contributing to discussions on nairaland, I just have to say something here. He actually committed two offences by your primitive reasoning. 1. The region or tribe where he comes from. 2. The city where he committed the offence - ABUJA. Those are the two offences. All the jargons you wrote here is just hiding behind your long held vendetta or bitterness.

1. If the accused were to be from your region ( I have carried out due diligence on your profile) you and your sociocultural organization would have issued statement and read a riot acts. Prof Soyinka seating arrangement on a local flight some years back and the insult from a young man which all of you applauded is an example. If it were old Prof Achebe without a wheelchair that found himself in the same situation, all of you would have insulted and cursed the young man.

2. If the hotel were in Lagos or PortHarcourt, it would have been another story. There are apartments in Lagos, Abuja & PortHarcourt that people also lodge, but security considerations make people coming from abroad to lodge in suite in good hotels.

Finally, this is a warning to people in Development organizations and top management staff of Financial Institutions coming to Abuja not to have meetings with their colleagues in their suites or apartment.

NB : People talk about hotel bar or lobby. That is another crude & uncivilized mentality. If he had lodged in apartment is he still expected to receive visitors in the lobby if it exists? Is it everybody that lodged in suites that receives visitors at the lobby or bar?

See all the comments above just show say we still dey live archaic and primitive life style for this part of the world.

So hotel room nor be same accommodation and shelter like our normal house?
So una just condition una mind say na only bad things dey happen for hotel
Wow even some educated nairaland are supporting the police...I dey shame for all of una

Just narrow it to yourself on your lovely wife

You paint with a very big brush. Not all women are like the ones you've met. We are northerners and we are different

thinkmoney:

I do not know your intentions with your friend and it is not really my business.
However, there are a lot of disturbing things about Nigeria that I get pissed about because I feel people aren’t noting it enough.
What’s the meaning of having some law for the north and another law for the south. This arrangement looks like a scam. The north will want to enjoy all the benefits but then have some restrictions people here in the south cannot appreciate.
Why do we not just say we are two federating regions. Why the pretense about one Nigeria. And besides it’s Abuja under the northern penal code and not under the federal penal code as the federal capital?
This nation get K leg. So I go dey inside the federal capital as a Nigeria from the south and I will be watching my back not sure the laws guiding activities in the capital? It’s just confusing and unfair. And southerners especially southern Muslims do not appreciate this dilemma.
What’s this fir God sake

please stop advertising ignorance here. Laws are made to govern a people according to the beliefs they hold. Even different states in america have differences in the laws as applies to those states alone. You are daft and envious of muslims.

All this diatribes you are spewing here doesn't make you intelligent. You are advertising your daftness rather.

What is so cool in your opinion about a married woman meeting a man inside a hotel room behind closed doors? Meetings are held in hotels every day. There are lobbies. Why inside a room please? Just imagine the mentality a man holds. What a simpleton! I wouldn't meet anyone inside a hotel room if there's nothing sinister going on. Even if it was a flat or shortlet apartment. Its immoral!

And by the way... who cares about you enough to notice you dont comment on naiaraland?

I hope one day you find yourself in a situation where you will be arrested and thrown in a cell for committing an assumed crime without any evidence, due process, charges, warrants or a chance to defend yourself in court

Reality201:
Someone once opened a thread here asking if adultery is illegal. But sir this your story get k-legs o

It's not a crime in the South under the Criminal Procedure Act but it is in the North under the Penal Code.

Uptheante:

It may not be explicitly stated in the constitution that it is a crime, but morally, it just ain't right.
We all know that when a man & a woman meet in a hotel room, there's a 99% chance of them having sex.
A married woman visiting a man in the hotel room will most likely get fuucked & that is adultery.
How will you feel if your wife visits another man in a hotel?

On moral grounds, they should also go for office holders that abused their offices.

complexstuffs:


Section 387 and 388 stipulate the punishment of imprisonment for two years, and/or with a fine for the crime of adultery committed in that region.

Thanks for the update.

This is one of the useless and loose men we talk about.

Why on a will you invite a married female friend to your hotel room...Am 💯% sure, that woman lied to her husband about where she was actually going...

This man need some special slap on his shameless face

Op, should just go and thank God that he is alive. So, married woman is the first to show up out of all you texted, mumu man trying to seduce the woman. The woman must have been suspecious for her wayward behaviour which makes the husband to always track her. Proberbly the husband has installed app into wife phone that will make him to monitor and read all text and WhatsApp messages that enter her phone. When you sent text or WhatsApp message indicating your hotel name and room number where the married woman should meet you, such phone application must have intercepted and relay a copy of the message to the husband of the woman.

The only thing the OP should be thanking God for is that he is alive to even narrate his ordeal on Nairaland. What if the person sent assassin or thugs, your human right friends' grammar won't have woken you up. You are claiming human right upon seeing another's wife in your hotel room. Shame on you that you are even holding any human right summit. Even days before arriving Abuja, you must have been sending messages to the same married woman which the husband must have been monitoring behind the scene. Which kind human right you are that couldn't even identify 'right thing' to do until they tutor you.

Why is everyone conveniently ignoring the fact that the man wasn't meeting the lady alone. The man clearly said he invited his friends to meet him in his hotel room. Coincidentally, the married lady was the first to arrive. It was during the chaos that the rest of them joined them. The initial arrangement wasn't to meet with the lady alone so there are zero reasons to suggest adultery was going to take place. Would the Police have arrested him if it wasn't just the two of them in that room?

While we should be condemning the overzealousness of our police officers, and their disregard for human rights, majority are blaming the man, who is innocent and only a victim of circumstance. The comments I read on Nairaland, Nigeria's biggest online forum on certain issues dey make me shake my head. Foreign visitors would be appalled by the way we sometimes think and reason. Make una try do dey better.

That is why you are very crude and uncivilized. That was how an hotel in Abuja in 2013 said two men from the same organization who came from Lagos to Abuja for Visa processes for an IT Seminar abroad cannot lodge together in the same suite because it is against Sharia Penal codes.

We will leave the nairaland for your types. Nigeria is gradually getting to a point of decision. You can go and die with your vendetta, hatred and primitive behavior.

tuzle:
Omo see English on top say person wan commit adultery. This guy is a joker, so he couldn't meet her in the lobby of the hotel or anywhere else where people are but his room to share drink and discuss. He thinks we are fools. Just imagine ur wife tells u she wants to go and have a meeting or see her male friend in an hotel room, like what sort of nonsense is that.

Get your mind out of the gutters.
So, a married nurse staying in a room with a male patient alone all night attending to him has done abominable crime too?
They MUST do something immoral in the dead of the night, according to your own way of thinking.
Some hotel apartments are not just a single room.
Some have separate bedroom and parlour.

Is Abuja a Muslim state?
Is it fair for Muslims to ban for example alcohol but still enjoy from the revenues federal government get from the sale of alcohol?
How many other states in Nigeria formulate laws based on religion or to guide some religious interest in Nigeria? How many other non sharia state have for example gospel laws to guide their indigenes?
