Emir Sanusi To Nigerian Muslims: "Let’s Peg Marriage Age" by HungerBAD: 11:10pm On Oct 15, 2016
The Emir of Kano Muhammadu Sanusi II has reiterated his call for the pegging of marriage age. The Emir in a write up on his instagram page title ‘Marriage of women below 18 years’ on Saturday enjoined the Nigerian Muslim community to call for pegging the pegging of marriage age.

The Emir in a write up on his instagram page title ‘Marriage of women below 18 years’ on Saturday enjoined the Nigerian Muslim community to call for pegging the pegging of marriage age.

He said the ‘’time had come when the Muslim community in Nigeria should live by the reality of economic recession and consequences of early marriage. ‘The marriage age in Egypt at present was 18 while that of Malaysia and Morocco were 19 and 17 respectively, asking “Why not we here urgently call for pegging of marriage ages within Muslim Ummah in Nigeria?” Below is the full text (Marriage of women below 18 years) – Women are suffering from reproductive health challenges were products of such marriages. Time had come when the Muslim community should live by the reality of economic recession and consequences of early marriage.

The era when people gave out their daughters in marriage at early ages and asked the husbands to wait till they were ripe was nothing but a deception. According to me, strategy no longer worked as it had led to cases of divorce and other ugly situations. In the past the rich and the poor married four wives and bore between 30 and 40 children because the economy was not only buoyant but also because people were not relying on government for sustenance.

Though the harsh economic realities now make it impossible for people to feed twice a day these days, “Unfortunately our people do not change and somebody with virtually nothing still give birth to 20or 30 children and this must stop”. There was a need to peg the marriage age now because of the challenges early marriage was posing.

The marriage age in Egypt at present was 18 while that of Malaysia and Morocco were 19 and 17 respectively, asking “Why not we here urgently call for pegging of marriage ages within Muslim Ummah in Nigeria?” Nigerian Muslims also practice the Malikiyas School of thought as these countries, “We should follow suit and peg our own marriage ages for our own good”.

I urge the relevant authorities to create a law that would punish anybody that gave birth to children and allowed them to suffer. Most of those neglected children not only turned victims of social vices but also engage in terrorism. – Muhammadu Sanusi II

Hmmmm!

His reason cited for the age pegging at 18 is base on recession when I thought he is going to talk about the negative effects it has on the naive girl

And how the kids end up suffering, eventually leading up to terrorism in some cases.

Have you forgotten how Hausa brain works?
Tell them anything so far as you are in a higher class, they will kindly harken to it.

His message was not meant for people like you as your iq has supposedly advance inline as your academic advances but what about your northern counterpart, will that be said for their case? I doubt.

The Emir is just a Bloody Hypocrite cause he is guilty of same crime! He should explain his role btw Ese and Yunusa underaged ish... He should lead by example and follow it up via grassroot empowerment and not by coming on social media to type... afterall most core northerners are illiterates so how does he expect them to read/see these

Ese was forcibly married by a 25 year old. The criminal emir in katsina is over 65 and forcibly having canal knowledge of a 14 year old christian girl. How else would God punish a nation? ??

that's not our problem...

what ever they like, not like it's why the Nigerian economy is in deep piss and shi..t


while they're thinking of how to peg marriage age, Nigerian youth should learn how they can make some money with just their Android phones http://www.droidpost.com/2016/07/how-to-make-money-with-your-android.html

Emir Sanusi is addressing his message to the wrong crowd. He erred by directing it to Nigerian Muslims. The message should be directed to NORTHERN MUSLIMS, period!

In addition, he needs to issue fatwah against snatch and grab of Christian girls by Northern Muslims.

There is no Muslim in South that marries a underage girl, Muslim or Christian, and forces her into Islam or snatch and grab her against her interest and her parents.

There are two Muslim societies in Nigeria; the Northern Muslim and the Southern Muslim.

Paedophilia, statutory ra.pe, snatch and grab of underage girls, forcible conversion are all acts and practices confined to the North. Therefore Sanusi should get on radio since every Northerner is reputed to own one and use that media to reach out to his people and educate them to join civilization and stop lusting after pvssy like street dogs in uncontrollable heat.

If the emir of kano and the sultan of sokoto plus other emirs with imams can reach an agreement on age 18yrs as minimum marriageable age...it will help shape the future of northern nigeria.
