Adultery Does Not Constitute A Criminal Offense-Affirms Rivers FIDA Chairperson

Bar. Adata Bio-Briggs, the Chairperson of the Rivers State branch of the International Federation of Women Lawyers (FIDA), has emphasized that adultery is not classified as a criminal offense.

Nonetheless, she highlights that an aggrieved spouse does have the right to initiate legal action for adultery, provided they present substantial and credible evidence to support their claims.

“Adultery is not a criminal offence. Only a spouse can sue for adultery. If the spouse condones the act, then it is finished. No action can be maintained. I have done my good deed for the day by sharing the above information. Please before you bring any matter that you want us to sue, please come with your reliable EVIDENCE,” she said in a Facebook post on Monday, August 14.
