A woman can give her children whatever name she pleases if she is solely responsible for the child.

A lawyer has said that a woman has the right to give her children whatever name she pleases if she is solely responsible for the child.

Nwa Okpoko wrote on Facebook: "Any woman that is solely responsible for the upkeep of a child reserves the right to give the said child whatever name she pleases. You want a stake in your child’s life, please step up. Till then, kindly shut up."

Do you agree with this?

Yes i think it makes sense, she is the mother, and she is the only one taking care of the child, so she has every right.

Yeah it does make sense but I think we should not still do it. Let God be the judge here
