Question 4
The ending of a customary marriage is the subject of massive contestation. The
debates are also dominated by evidence of a lack of consensus on the usage of
terminologies such as ‘termination’, ‘dissolution’ and ‘divorce’. As a legal expert in the
field of African customary law, a lay member of the community consults you,
requesting for a thorough explanation of the grounds for ending a customary marriage.
Explain to the member the grounds for ending a customary marriage.
