Stan Alieke, the former lawyer of singer Darlington Okoye, popularly known as Speed Darlington or Akpi, has shared what couples should do with their properties before marriage.

According to the legal practitioner, if a person does not trust their spouse and feels their property can be taken from them, they should sign a prenup before marriage.

In his Instagram post, Alieke said people should acquire properties in their parents' names if they can't sign a prenup.

Afterward, they can take back their property as gifts from their parents or via inheritance.

Stan noted that gifts or inheritance cannot be shared during divorce.

His post got mixed comments from netizens who were uncomfortable with the idea of thinking of divorce before marriage.

Check out some of the comments as Stan Alieke advises couples on how to protect their property before marriage below:

@big_naya1 commented: "So before you go into marriage, you are already preparing for divorce? When did we get here?"

@nnamdiosi reacted: "If you have such a mindset before getting married, trust me, it won't last. Marry a woman who is a builder and not a liability. Do not allow oyibo marriages/Nollywood celebrities marriages make you think your marriage will end up in divorce."

@nazzy_threads said: "If there is no trust, there is no marriage. Stop raising dusts that will finally cripple the marriage when your partner finds out."
