That is true.... And i know as much.
But again, not everyone does it & rubs it in your face quite like the powerful in the extreme north.

Well, this is another topic. I simply responded to your first comment. grin

I simply referred to the north because the most popular case of child marriage is attributed to a northern senator.

Now,quote me & type nonsense make i end you.

I think we all need to encourage better education across the country. I once saw a message on the street of Dubai '' Eradicate poverty, educate now''. If the ME have made better progress in education, why would Northern Nigeria continue to deprive its' people quality education leading to mass illiteracy which is the main cause of early marriage and rampant poverty?.

If any part of the country is behind, the entire country is affected. A chain is as strong as its weakest link, they say. By the way, I come from the South but I appreciate you have awareness underage marriage deprives women of their potential and is a major hindrance to development. I once had a maid (20yrs) who was very bright but had no opportunity at formal education. Just when she decided to start an apprenticeship while in my place, the family married her off. Quite a pathetic case, she was robbed of her future.

You've said it all my brother


I think the issue here is that African countries, Nigeria especially still chose to be backward considering our level of education. If the "educated elites" can easily pick a child in primary school, marry her off and rob her of her future, then what do you expect the illiterates to do

I think the problem we are having is more than illiteracy, or could it be that we are not applying education the right way in our everyday life?

True that.
Most people prefer to tiptoe around the issue but it goes without saying that all these problems have their genesis rooted in religion.
A man on an income barely enough to keep 2 adults well-fed & clothed decides to throw reason out the window and take 4 wives instead...
15yrs later, you're getting old & weak, living on the same amount of income but with 11 more children to feed. It's sad, pathetic and more than a little embarrassing.The Father Decides to prioritize, so he sends the males to a god-awful govt school and the girls attend an Islamic school before returning in the evening to join their mothers in petty trading.

But ultimately, more and more of the traditional Hausa people are embracing western education....it's a slow process but someday they'll get there.

Calm down.
Just because I have a distaste for child marriage which as difficult as it is to admit, is quite common in the rural parts of the north, doesn't mean I am some kind of hater.

I am Fulani. So calm down.
Maybe I should just modify my comment & put this up as a disclaimer so the next mumu won't disturb my life.

Who your being Fulani help?

We recently saw a thread of 18years old boy getting married to a 17year old girl in Abia. So which early marriage are you talking about?

Maybe he uses their virginity for purification of his throne. Africa has a long way to go. Stupid tradition! I'm even ashamed of d minister who gave his daughter's hand in marriage to a who.rish king. There must be a spiritual undertone to this inordinate desire to marry virgin maidens every year. Let him continue until he marries up to 50 or 70 wives. One thing i'm sure of: he can never beat King Solomon's record. Stupid king!!!
