ShyM-X: Thanks for your response. I am not sure the ol' Guerrilla is as old you think, but this is another story ... The fact that you prescribe credible educational alternatives as a way of creating the necessary conditions for advocacy shows you do take this matter rather seriously. I am entirely in agreement with the view that education laws have, indeed, proven to be the best child laws devised in most countries around the world. You have to agree, though, that while improved access to education may positively impact the supply chain, we still have the issue of demand to contend with. Question: how do we curtail the later without enacting laws that removes ambiguity on where the Nation really stands. On a different note, take a look at the alleged hypocrisy of Shariarist Yerima who, by the way, still has cases of corruption pending with the EFCC in the image attached. You see how far removed this c#unt is from the average Northerner you mentioned earlier?

Re: Marriageable Age Of Places Around The World by coogar: 11:20pm On Jul 21, 2013 |
@ gabbytabby, this is what I found in one of the links you posted. all the causes mentioned here are linked directly or indirectly to poverty and illiteracy. 2.2.1 The Nigerian Situation In the case of Nigeria alone, there is a vesico-väginal fistula rate of 350 cases per 100,000 deliveries at a university teaching hospital. This condition is so enormous and thus ravages Nigerian women that the country’s Federal Minister for Women Affairs and Youth Development, has estimated that the number of untreated VVFs in Nigeria stands between 800,000 and 1,000,000 (Villey, 2006). Going by this report, Nigerian women are under serious siege of VVF Corroborating the above report, the Nigerian minister of health estimated that 800,000 women are plagued by the scourge of VVF, a majority of whom are living in the rural areas where there is inadequate or complete lack of primary health facilities. The minister thus recalls that the country accounts for 40% of the global burden of VVF (The Guardian, 2007). Some of the victims of VVF are very young and are not even privileged to have basic elementary school education. Magashi (2006) explains that when a woman in the rural part of the country is in labour, she usually stays at home for about 3 days trying to push, the family may decide to take her to the closest obstetric center which may be 70 kilometers away; lack of proper, easy and affordable transportation further worsens her traumatic experience. If she eventually gets to the clinic, there is no facility and skilled attendant to handle the emergency obstetric procedure. If the woman survives the labour, she hardly survives the waiting and gruesome grasp of VVF. Magashi (2006) reports that Nigeria’s maternal mortality ratio of 948 per 100,000 live births with a range of 339 to 1716 ranks among the highest in the world. For each maternal death that occurs, 15 to 20 other women suffer either short or long term maternal morbidities, and prominent among these morbidities is Obstetric Fistula which the major one is the VVF. Incidence of obstetric fistula is directly connected to maternal mortality (WHO, 2006:1407). Maternal mortality and morbidity is more likely in nations and cultures which give little priority to the needs, status and situation of girls; where girls and women are routinely discriminated against; where girls are married off as soon after puberty as possible; where education levels are low; and where the only role of women is seen as wives and mothers. In many of these cultures, maternal illness, suffering, and health are viewed as natural, inevitable, and part of what it means to be a woman (Sadik, 2001). Little wonder why scourge of VVF is not seen as a serious case of maternal mortality in such cultures. 2.4 CAUSES OF VVF Just like the classification of fistula, it is also difficult to associate a particular cause to the scourge of VVF around the world. However, the study looks at the problem from both physical and socio-cultural perspective. The physical causes are referred to as the direct cause, while the socio-cultural causes are termed the underlying or the contributing factor to the problem of VVF. 2.4.1 Physical causes This relates to particular situations which directly expose young women to the scourge of VVF. One important and predominant cause of VVF is a prolonged and difficult labour which sometimes last for days before a woman receives an obstetric care or dies. WHO (2006:4) reports that “if labour remains obstructed, the unrelenting pressure of the baby’s head against the pelvis can greatly reduce the flow of blood to the soft tissues surrounding the bladder, vägina and rectum”. This situation often leaves the pelvic tissue with injury which may rotten away, thus creating a hole or a fistula between the bladder and the urethra (ibid). According to Moir (1967: 129) the common form of obstetric fistula is caused by pressure necrosis following a prolonged labour. Often, this situation may be unnoticed until many days after a woman delivers her child. The other form of fistula occurs as a result of improper use of obstetrical instruments. This is an accidental injury, which refers to injury caused to the bladder during obstetric operations performed within the formal/modern health care system, such as the hospital. Zacharin (1988:127) noted that destructive operative procedures during delivery of the child may cause trauma, hence fistulae. Poor instruments such as perforator or decapitation hook may slip and damage the vaginal wall and bladder. In some cases, incorrect application of obstetric substances into the urethra may cause the bladder to extend abnormally, thereby causing eruption, hence ureteric injury. Several cases of VVF cases in developing nations have been observed to originate from obstetric complications such as prolonged and obstructed labour. Many times, this is due to inadequate or total lack of maternity care in such countries. Women from developed world on the other hand, who have proper access to maternity care have no worries over the incidence of VVF resulting from obstructed labour. Through adequate prenatal care and facilities in the developed world, an endangered baby or mother can be saved through caesarean section, a method which is very new in developing countries. WHO reports that physical causes of fistula emanates from the following: Inaccessibility to basic maternity care and lack of knowledge about or facilities or facilities for fistula repair (2006:6) A vast majority of pregnant women in developing nations lack access to basic obstetric care. As a matter of fact, many in the rural areas of the developing nations have their child birth at home. Traditional birth attendants are sometimes called upon in case of complications. Adequate obstetric care before, during and after labour goes a long way in preventing or correcting difficulties such as fistula or mortality for mother and child; and since the most women in the poor-resource setting of the world lack access to adequate obstetric care before, during and after delivery, it is expected that infant and maternal mortality would be very high in such regions of the world. United Nations Population Fund (2004) reports that if mothers are at high risk of maternal death or illness, their children are at risk, too. Neonatal and infant deaths can result from poor maternal health and inadequate care during pregnancy, delivery and the critical immediate postpartum period. Another direct factor responsible for the incidence of VVF is complications of criminal abortion (Hilton, 2003). Most criminal abortions are clandestinely practiced by untrained individuals who claim to be knowledgeable in the act. Through the use of wrong instruments, some girls have had their birth canal unknowingly damaged. If not repaired on time and adequately, this may result in VVF. 2 Likes |

eGuerrilla: Rotflmao. I guess my assumption about your age has to do with when you asserted on a next thread that you marched with Al Sharpton in London. I was probably still wearing diapers when that happened. Age is nothing but a number. The demand isn't really the problem, extreme poverty is. If we can create a conducive environment for education to thrive in that region and enact/promulgate laws that would ensure that every child out there must be educated to at least secondary school (GCSE) level - then half of the problem would be solved. Education in this day and age shouldn't be a luxury - it's a must/necessity. Also no matter how we look at it, we still have to strengthen our institutions to be able to make a stand. There are tons of things that are illegal in Nigeria, however people still indulge in them with impunity regardless. So even if we make it illegal - how are we sure people won't still indulge in it and get away? Perhaps, that's why window dressing isn't really my thing - it's just superficial and it doesn't solve anything on the long run. Basically, it's just like saying a lot without actually saying anything. The Yerima guy's problem isn't the problem of the North - he represents the image of Nigeria, the docility of the people, and what Nigeria stands for. If we as a people can stand up and start asking our elites/politicians questions and making sure that the right and qualified people govern us - without ethnic bias, people like Yerima wouldn't be at the helm of affairs. We as Nigerians, are just hypocritical book readers, shallow thinkers and ethnic jingoists who thrive in viewing everything from tribal lense - rather than standing up for what's right. Since I've been on this forum - I've never seen Nigerians come out in unison, with one voice, to speak for what is right - except when it has to do with issues about those people from that part of the country that we love to hate, and/or are indoctrinated to hate. |

With that, they will be able to make rational judgement - and know how to exist within the legal framework which governs the land. Stop bringing your simplistic thought process into this.

Sex abuse spans spectrum of churches.Despite headlines focusing on the priest pedophile problem in the Roman Catholic Church, most American churches being hit with child sexual-abuse allegations are Protestant, and most of the alleged abusers are not clergy or staff, but church volunteers. The surveys suggest that over the past decade, the pace of child-abuse allegations against American churches has averaged 70 a week. http://m.csmonitor.com/2002/0405/p01s01-ussc.html Christians I hail.

I fail to see how you can be campaigning for people to do what the want in one post and then go ahead to suggest they make education for those same people compulsory in another post. That's the problem with debating simplistic people who have little or no knowledge about history. Who told you Islam is against education? Ever heard about the scholastic learning centre in Timbuktu and the first ancient university in the world in Salamanca, Spain? Who do you think built those universities? Well, Islamic scholars built them. Even back when Timbuktu reigned supreme - education was a necessity! Now go check the literacy rate of the most Islamic countries in the world like: Bahrain, Brunei, Qatar, Saudi Arabia etc. to get your answer if Islamic culture doesn't agree with education. I guess you also don't know that the Hausa tribe has the oldest written records in Nigeria. They've got their history on books older than 300 years old. You need to read more, son.
