The words ''defilement'' and ''unlawful carnal knowledge'' are talking about ra.pe. If someone marries an 11year old kid, and consumate the relationship in bed, will that be seen as defilement? Will that not be seen as conjugal bliss between husband and wife? There is no way marriage will be seen as unlawful carnal knowledge. 4 Likes 1 Share |

naptu2:pls forget this tale by moonlight, all i can see are two sets of law, one is applicable to the poor man, while the super rich is above this law, now Mr poster, answer this simple question, is senator yerima the senator who married a 10yr old Egyptian not in the same senate with Chris anyanwu? So why has he not been prosecuted?Chris anyanwu is a disgrace to womanhood. 1 Like |

TheOtherview: I have read what you said....and I am still convinced that people who molest a child would get life imprisonment. Or are you saying that the law says that those who molest under 18 get off scott free? Anyway....I might be wrong...and a legally trained person can set me right....but as far as I am concerned....Nigeria's laws have no hiding place for those who molest kids. Enforcing the law is another story....but this law is a step in the right direction. 3 Likes |

bushdoc9919: "Liable to" is less definitive than "Shall" - that's my point. Go back and check my previous post again. What stopped the Senate from putting a clear and unambiguous stake in the ground eh? You and I both know what militated against...

bushdoc9919: Under the customary law of Nigeria which our marriage law derives its root from, the parental consent is the most important thing. Once there is parental consent to the mariage, no matter the age of the child, the husband can consumate the marrriage, except there is angreement between the families ab initio. Though I am not a lawyer. That is why you will still have to do traditional wedding whether you are having court or church or mosque marriage. The husband cannot be jailed. Like someone said, a part of the law is for the rich and a part is for the poor. |

If having sex unlawfully wit a girl below 13yrs is an offence; what then makes it lawful to have sex wit a girl of such age? |

superstar1: Traditional wedding is not necessarily compulsory.(My parents never had one...church only+ registration at church by the Law.). But a child is not legally recognized as being able to give valid consent to se...x.....even if the parents say yes.(and the parents could be prosecuted under the law if they facilitated such a union). 1 Like |

I've always known that as long as ahmed Sani is not the president of the senate,our senators can never pass such stupid bills na. the guys in the Red chamber always prefer hot girls with correct frontal and backtal assets (e.g campus babes and co) not primary 3 children. |

Based on this bill ~80% of married Northern men, Buhari inclusive, should be in jail. Nigeria's executive arm of government sucks! |

bushdoc9919: I really doubt whether there is any marriage without the traditional aspect of it being done. Your parent's own is an exception and aberration. Most times the traditional is even compulsory more than the court or church or mosque. Speaking from Yoruba marriages, dunno of the rest though. The parental consent is really taking responsibility for the child, i believe. I think they should make the stupid law more explicit, it is quite ambiguous and a smart criminal will get a way with it easily. |

But why did they have to classify the ages multiple times if anything above age 11 is not consent? Why not say strait away, 18 and below, 17 and below or 16 and below, and martial out the consequent penalty. They want to create confusion in the law courts right? Anybody could get away with defiling age 12 to 18 as it is, it's just pure law jargons. Yerima would have bribed those who tinkered with the age of a child in that bill |
