Read again...This time slowly. They are merely enforcing the Supreme Court Judgement on Female inheritance as well as existing laws on gender equality and inhumane practices.
Thank you so much. You have highlighted it better for those who can't read to understand. Their role is to make sure the law is implemented because they are the closest to the people. Thanks again

They're not the right people to enforce such rulings. They're constitutionally irrelevant.
Lg councils and house of assemblies or community development forums should be the ones enforcing such rulings.

Ibos and Fulanis are in the same boat just that Ibos are pretentious hypocrites

Very correct. Just like Muslims and Christians are in the same boat,just that Christians are more pretentious and hypocritical.

Igbos have the same domineering attitude like Fulanis, infact,the Igbos used to behave the exact way the Fulanis are behaving right now prior to the civil war.

So this practice exist in Igbo land and they will come here to accuse the northerners for the same. A case of pot calling kettle black.

One thing I have come to learn about the igbos is that whatever they accuse other tribes for are mostly practice by them, hypocrisy runs in their veins.
I'm Igbo and since I was born I've never seen where a lady under 18 years old got married

This practice is not even prevalent in the whole of Igbo land, it is not like the North who claim rights to children less than 15 and defile them, then chase them away when they come down with VVF. At least, the news is about the practice being abolished, not like some people who fought tooth and nail to ensure that the marriage age for females in their region is 12 and below.

they share everything in common including bragging and chest beating, just that Igbo make more noise than Fulani



I don't see no different between them, both can kill because of land and money

Stale news...this happened some years ago and an NGO intervened and broke up the marriage. If it were your kin, you'd have had the officials of the NGO beheaded. If you want to lie, lie with sense

No child marriage in igboland
What they did is to make it official
But it's still encouraged in the north
