noskeybaba: errm... The girl is 16, and the marriage is 2yrs old. So it now means the girl was given out at the age of 14? Northern Nigeria should grow up. This is 21st century for Christ sake!!! Giving out kids for marriage is outdated. Both the suitor and the parents are not just ok. I rest my case.

She was SOLD and not given as a birthday present.

Sold like a baby pigket to the highest bidder.

Housa man no dey hear sorry. He can do anything to get his pound of flesh.

tjskii: So werr r they goin to get d money to pay him back,hed berra just divorc her and mov on

he better do what? i rather keep her to suffer for ever. may the Almighty GOD and Allah and Buddah and all the deities punish her and her dubious parents. LMAO

the guys babana was not sweet enough for her ? wonders shall never cease

1Dray:

U've gotta be kidding me.

You playing with women? Don't hold your breath on them being rational.

Parnassuss: PEOPLE GET IT RIGHT, HE DID NOT MARRY A 16 YEAR OLD HE MARRIED A 14 YEAR OLD! IF AT 16 THEY HAD BEEN MARRIED FOR 2 YEARS THEN THAT HUSBAND IS ONE THEM PEDOPHILES! IS THE WEDDING EVEN CONSTITUTIONAL THAT THE JUDGE AWARDS SUCH DAMAGES ABEG THE GIRL'S PARENTS NEED TO CHALLENGE THAT JUDGEMENT!

Yada yada yada. Stop harping on no-issues mister.

Child abuse in Northern Nigeria is practiced with impunity with both family members supporting the show of shame all in the name of marriage...smdh

It doesn't even occur to you that she's just a child...you're a shame to civilization

Does anyone have an idea of what a 14yr old girl looks like?

Your niece in JS3/SS1 married to someone of Tuface Idibias or Kanu Nwankwos age

How can she know by this age of 16 that the husband does not know how to make love, agreeing or accepting that the man had been intimate with her? Which experience was she comparing the one done by her husband with? And what is the way or how was the love made with her anyway?, Tell us, becos the next suitor can face the same treatment.

Boyoorisha: A Nigerian court based in the capital Abuja has ordered a 16-year-old girl, Maryam Suleiman, and her parents to refund N570,000(about $4,000) to her husband, Mukailu Naibi, over a fraudulent marriage.

The judge in the Area Court sitting in Lugbe, Haruna Masanawa, ruled that Suleiman and her parents must refund the money to Naibi within 30 days. Masanawa also ordered that Naibi’s estranged wife, who had filed for divorce, must remain married to him pending the full refund of the amount.
"Based on the evidence before me, the court is convinced that the plaintiff’s parents are dubious people that no child should be proud of. They collected money from different suitors, all with the fraudulent intention of marrying their daughter out to them, all of which turned out to be fake promises. This honourable court hereby orders the plaintiff to pay the defendant the sum of N570,000 before divorce is granted to her,’" Masanawa said.
Naibi of Keke village, Kaduna, whose wife allegedly starved him of sex for two years of their marriage, had demanded N1. 2 million as compensation from the wife’s parents before he would agree to his wife’s request for divorce. Naibi, 37, while testifying in the case, said the amount covered the bride price he paid before marrying Suleiman. He told the court that the amount also covered the cost of damage done to his house after Suleiman set it on fire before filing for divorce. Naibi tendered written documents with records of all expenses made on his estranged wife and her parents, in addition to presenting a witness who testified in his favour. He told the court that his wife had refused to make love to him since they got married two years ago.
"Your worship, since we got married two years ago, my wife never allowed me to make love to her for once and all my attempts to do it always led to fighting. I married her out of love and I still love her, but with this development, I have no choice, but to ask the court to grant her divorce wish for the sake of peace," Naibi said.
In her testimony, Suleiman said her husband had made love to her once but she was not impressed and so wanted divorce. "I don’t love him. I don’t love anybody who bears his name and I hate anybody who loves him," she told the court. Naibi’s in-laws denied most of his claims.

Correction. It was 2 years ago, so they handed over their 14 year old daughter to a 35 year old. Paedophilia Galore.

Ileke-IdI:
What's a 37 years old man doing with a 16 years old girl?

Hausa man again? By the time you investigate further,the girl must be around 12 years old or less

you have low i.Q. Chief.

The "Law of the Source of Law"
of the Vatican State requires that any
Italian laws must first defer to divine law,
to Papal decrees, and to canon law. As
the Vatican understands divine law, all
sex outside of marriage is illicit, and
therefore the only lawful consent that
may be made for sexual relations is the
consent between a husband and a wife.
Canon 1083 of the Code of Canon Law
states that "A man before he has
completed his sixteenth year of age and
a woman before she has completed her
fourteenth year of age cannot enter into
a valid marriage." [84] Thus, assuming
the couple is married, the minimum age
of consent for lawful sexual relations
according to Vatican law is 14 for
females, and 16 for males.

emilyone: the guys babana was not sweet enough for her ? wonders shall never cease

I doubt that that was the reason the marriage was sexless, at 14-16 there are possibilities she is scared of a metal ROD entering her. Some gals are scared even at 25yrs.

Ur ancestors hav been marrying girls less than 14yrs for god knows how long and see nothing wrong with it. Then the white master said it should be 18yrs, but check a century back in history and see how the white master marries girls as young as 11 yrs and see nothing wrong with it,

She's presently 16years old and she was married to the man 2years ago meaning she was 14years old at the time. Both the girl's parents and the husband should be in jail for child abuse.

is a 16year old girl not too young for all this drama? i blame her parents for putting her in this mess

I think say na only igbo's like money

No wahala.
They should give him his money.

I've noticed that more northerners head to the court for divorce than we southerners do.
Why is this?
