Did someone above me say cool

This is not cool at all....

This marriage is sure to crumble....

They are too immature for marriage, they would surely have fights and quarrels, how would they handle that??

If its due to pregnancy, no wahala, how would that "boy" be responsible enough to take care of them?? I mean both mother and child??

Well, all the same, I wish them all the very best.....
They have family support to fall back on, given their age, they are both teachable and will give in to wise counsel readily.

Seems to me like somebody is desperate to have a grandchild and decided to push their children into kasala.
There are stages in life before marriage, like learning how to differentiate between to.to and ny.ash in the dark without candlelight.
You first learn how to pee inside your pant before you start aiming with it amongst peers.
Even if their parents are terminally ill and desperate for grandchildren, that does not justify sending these children to purgatory at a time in life they should be learning how to be teenagers. The are being deprived of experiences as teenagers that will serve them well as adults. Life is a stage; you cannot wear your pant over your wrapper even if yo are fela. If you start forcing kids to behave like adults before they become adults, they will revert someday as adults and start behaving like kids (case in point is michael jackson who never had a childhood and ended up loitering around kids even as a 40 year old taata).

Mistake all through; you don't need a babalawo to figure out that this is heading to nowhere. An 18 year old boy and a 17 year old girl should be in school trying to build a foundation for a happy adult life.

Age is not a reflection/evidence of maturity. They may be young, but they could be more mature when compared to the plethora of single middle aged men and women sleeping around with multiple partners. It's only in Africa that people place so much value on age, in other climes, there is nothing strange about people getting married as teenagers.

As for those posters saying this must be pregnancy-related, go and deal with your ignorance elsewhere.

The age isn't really a big deal to me. I've seen quite a few of those. But most of the ones I've seen have jobs and/ or going to school, and living on their own already.
They might have rich parents who's gotten them a place to stay but what about other basic needs?

claremont:


What makes you think this couple are jobless and/or not in school? My point IS - We shouldn't draw conclusions simply because they are young.

Nigerians like to brag knowingly or unknowingly. If they were somebody important/ rich or remotely connected to somebody important/ rich they would have announced " 18 year old son of "Chief Dr Pastor XYZ weds 17 year old daughter of dangote's driver's sister-in-law's cousin". Rather than just making it about the union of the young couple.

Or 18 year old boy student of (insert prestigious school) weds 17 year.............


claremont:


You are making a lot of assumptions because they are young. IF they do break up, it wouldn't be because they married young. Honestly, I don't see the longevity of their marriage being predicated on their age, older couples break up as well. Kudos to them, when I was their age, I was preoccupied with scaling through my first year in uni. They are young, they have a long time to make mistakes and learn from the mistakes made.
It is true that there are a lot of unknown facts in this story, i still never said anything about them breaking up because of their age. my main concern was how are they gonna cope financially. Which was why i said if they are kids of somebody rich/ important the post would have mentioned it.

This 18yr old girl is a pedophile and child molester regardless of whatever customs her people observe. A 17 year old boy is underage and should be dating his age mates or immediate junior.

The girl should be found and arrested immediately, and quite honestly should be sent to life imprisonment for endangering the welfare of a child, aggravated rape and pedophilia.

These are the kind of issues the government should focus its attention, instead they are busy chasing after multi billion dollar looters. This issue affects the common man more so than all the efforts spent chasing after looters.

Seems like you misread the title, the girl is the one who is 17 (underage).
Besides, no one can be accused of being a paedophile since they are within the same age range.
A 20 year old guy sleeping with or marrying a 17 year old girl cannot be charged or labelled a paedophile (even in the most civilized countries like USA). This is simply because 3 years difference still falls within the same age range according to the law. When one partner is 25 or 30 years old and above and the other is below 18, that is when it becomes unlawful.

Stop supporting evil, you wouldn't want your underaged child dating or marrying an adult. An 18 yr old is an adult while a 17 yr old is still underaged regardless of the months or days between them. In civilized clines, this 18yr old will be locked up, but in Nigeria, anything goes.

No, the 18 year old boy cannot be locked up even in the USA because he still falls within the same age range as the underage girl.
According to US law and most civilized nations, the boy would be charged if he is at least 5 years older than the underaged girl. So the boy has to be 22 years old and above to be charged.

Don't even tell him about Romeo and Juliet law (damn Transformers) or parental consent for underage girls. The latter has been abused so much, it's painful. Gov. Chris Christie actually squashed a campaign, that was trying to close that particular loophole, on religious grounds.

See this one just throwing big words around without knowing the full implication of what he is saying. Do you know how serious it is to level charges like this against someone? Even here in the US she won't be charged for impropriety not only because they are both close in age but because of parental consent meanwhile you are here throwing allegations at people as if you know the full meaning or consequence.
