Dokubo - Underage Marriage Our Right As Muslims by Maxymilliano(m): 10:42am On Jul 19, 2013 |
Alh. Asari Dokubo in Muslim garb A prominent Niger Delta Muslim, Alhaji Mujahid Abubakr Dokubo-Asari, has lashed out at critics of the moves by Nigeria’s Senate to approve under-age marriage. Expressing his opinion on the issue this morning, Dokubo, who converted to Islam as an adult, insisted that it is the right of Muslims to marry or give out their daughters at any age they wish, adding that this is not the business of non-Muslims. Said the Niger Delta Peoples Volunteer Force (NDPVF) leader through Facebook: “People should learn to respect other people’s sensibilities… We Muslims have the right to marry when we want or give out our daughters at any age we want. It is not your business and the law must respect our right to do so. Anything short of that is an infringement on our rights. We did not ask you to marry ladies of that age or give your daughters out in marriage at that age. Plzzzzzzzz respect our sensibilities.” News Express reports that the Nigerian Senate has come under fire from outraged Nigerians and the international community after being convinced by Senator Ahmad Yarima to drop a constitutional amendment outlawing marriage to girls under 18. The former Zamfara State governor who once came under fire for marrying a girl believed to be aged 13 had argued that Islam recognises under-age marriage. Issues pertaining to religion usually evoke strong reactions in Nigeria, a deeply religious nation that has Christianity and Islam as the dominant faiths.

...and this is the dude some deluded dolts were praising to the heaven not long ago on this forum. Asari is a confused adult...torn between a religion he converted into as an adult and the belief-system of the environment that he spent his formative years. Woe betides anyone that takes this guy serious. 53 Likes |

I never knew there was a law stopping under-18 girls from getting married!! Because I see it happening everyday!! Old men getting married to very young girls!! A girl that is just 15 years is already having 2-3 children!! It is a Northern thing!! Many of them are uneducated!! Because I don't see an educated girl getting married at 15-16 years!! 14 Likes |
