Metropolitan Municipal District Assemblies (MMDAs) are mandated by the Marriage Act 1884 – 1985 to Register and Officiate marriages. The assembly renders services such as the registration of ordinance and customary marriages: Ordinance Marriage (Cap 27) Couples from gazetted churches are registered and given a 21-day notice, which is later given to their ministers at their respective churches for publication. Upon maturity (after the 21 Days’ notice), either of the couples returns for the Registrar’s Certificate. Couples whose churches are not gazetted or couples who want to sign at the Registry of the Assembly are given a date, usually Thursdays to come along with their witnesses. A ceremony is performed; couples are made to exchange vows and rings and later append their signatures after which a certificate of marriage is presented to the couples. This is similar to what is normally done in churches. Processing Procedure of Ordinance Marriage at the Assembly: Applicant files Notice of Marriage with the Registry (for 21 days) by providing personal data plus photo identity cards. Applicant submits a Statutory Declaration, verifying fulfillment with specified statutory requirements in the Marriages Act, 1884-1985 (CAP 127). The Registrar’s Certificate is issued to the applicant after twenty-one (21) days (in the absence of a caveat/objection). Thereafter, the Marriage may be celebrated within 3 months from the date of the Notice of Marriage.
