American citizen married to an undocumented Nigerian
In a TikTok video, she said they have now been married for 21 years and were blessed with two children.
However, the American lady said when she wanted to marry the man, many people thought he was using her to get his papers.
She said:
"I had my own place. He was living with two or three different people, so he was not really settled at the time. We have been married now for 21 years. We have two children. But I when I first met him, it was definitely different. I had a lot of people on my ear telling me 'he is using you for papers, he is lying, he probably has a family in Nigeria, Nigerians know how to lie."
The lady said she did not listen to the naysayers and decided to know the man up close outside of the fact that he did not have papers to legally live in the USA.
Her words:
"Sitting down with him, I quickly realised that he was a very nice person, he was kindhearted, he was educated, had a great educational background, came from a very good family, just an overall good person. And so I liked him as a person outside of his documentation situation."
The lady said she does not regret getting married to a Nigerian man without documentation as her marriage has worked out well.
She said she has had a great life with the man who she described as a really good person.
The lady shared her experience at a time when the Donald Trump administration was deporting thousands of undocumented immigrants.
