another slowpoke on the loose. check who sponsored the bill..

[quote author=metronaija post=34425805][/quote]

The Senate on Wednesday passed the Sexual Offences Bill, 2015 which prescribes life imprisonment for rapists and those who have sexual intercourse with children under 11 years. Rapists and those who sexually abuse children would bag life imprisonment while other sexual offenders would also be sentenced to serve various prison terms.

Do you people actually read any news on your own, or do you wait for sensationalists to feed you it to you on NL?

Other sexual offenders will be criminalized, but should you decide to sexually assault a child 11 years and under, your fate is sealed by the bill. It doesn't mean that the legal age of consent is 11, and it doesn't mean that pervs who assault individuals who are above 11 will not be criminalized. I will admit that the bill creates several loopholes, but the title of this thread is very misleading.

This is should be a watertight law, which it isn't hence the problem. Don't know what you are trying to defend.

[quote author=metronaija post=34425805][/quote] some 11yrs old girls now α days are even bigger that 18-20yrs old girls in stature. If you รee weting dem dey collect you self go pray make God quick come. May God help us. Abeg, my Able nonsense senators. What abouT the 24/7 power bill and #1=$1 bill. I dey halt.

Sandydayz:
What the hell!!!
Pls make it 15, 11 is just too low..

abeg if najoke make you stop am o,I don dey eye some boys in my hood,I must disvirg^n dem

OREMUSSANCTUS:
Sowie boi How old re u ? Learn to talk to elders wif respect

elders don't talk you do, more so, respect is earned

Nitori olorun, warris all dis?

So @ 11 now, men can screw dem legally?

Did the senate check their mental capability or dem no no say cases go full court now with "she willingly aggreed"

Let their daughters and granddaughters start getting plucked at 12 and we will see if they still see it as a good idea to pass a bill like that

omonnakoda:
Rather than make ignorant remarks,inquiring minds should search age of consent in historical context.Throughout history across cultures this has generally been puberty ie around 12.This was the case across Christian,Jewish Muslim and European cultures. In The US and UK it was 10- 12 years until the last century
We must not forget that until quite recently in most countries very few people lied to the age of 40 and so the imperatives to reproduce early were strong everywhere.
To characterize this as a Muslim phenomenon is not only wrong but ignorant. Do not take my word for it make an effort and do some work

So does it make it right because the past generation does it? Do you know the amount of children that must have been hurt sexually and emotionally?

I am actually not surprised at this law! When you have the people from Niger presenting the dura man with underage girls at about the age of 11 to welcome him, this is obviously what follows after his visit from the jihadist and militia clans men.

The senate taking a clue from their master (bombhari) and the prophet (Mohammed).

of course they didnt , they just tasted 12year old Toto and decided it was good to go. You think they are worried about a 12year olds capacity to reason and be held liable?

orble:


Are u telling Christians to support your immoral tendencies?

I am at a loss here. i understand.

Addonbiliviti but if it's really true, may God punish those senators that accented to this bill,it shall never be well with them.

favourelisha:
Useless muslims religion but it will not and never work in this country,if they like let them give out their daughter in marriage @ 11yrs. Nonsense!!!

they want others to give away their 12year old daughters to them, the plan is not to subject their own child to that bill

OREMUSSANCTUS:

Sowie boi
How old re u
?
Learn to talk to elders wif respect

Oremus again?

Na this ur name no let us watch naija match this morning. If u like show ur face on Sunday morning for our next game.

DDoubleUps:
Sex with an 11year old? that is an abomination and paedophile... so of all the problem facing the nation, this is what they deemed the most appropriate to do? Gmb we dey look and we go see, make una no think say we no go see... nawaooo!!!

No be your ibo sister, Chris Anyawu sponsor the bill? Wetin you de talk? Wetin concern GMB here? E no be ibo man, e no be senator. Nonsense.

Dollyak:

Is he wrong? Please educate us. This rubbish act is prominent in the north.

Though the prophet married Aisha at a young age but they didn't consummate their love until she was fully matured and not as a minor.

Dollyak:
You will kill him? Days are number indeed.

You better just shut da fùck off!

Dollyak:

Imagine if Christians are like that huh, doing anything to protect their faith. You are not looking at it from a christian perspective, but we don't matter because we are not violent by faith. The guy is clearly angry because the law was passed against his morals. How will you feel if laws were passed against your morals/religion

What are you saying?
What silly morals?
Moral that made him criticise other people's religion?
Who made the laws?
Was it just Christians or Muslims?

When I first saw the title of the thread I was horrified and extremely angry but after reading the posts in this thread it seems that law was created to impose further sanctions of people who rape minors and it doesn't actually lower the age of consent It is a welcome development but the law should definitely apply to children over the age of 11. It is appalling that although we are in the 21st century we still are not able to create laws to protect innocent children from pedophiles.

The end is near, sign of the end time!
Actually, its the children of the poor that are usually the victims!
And mostly our brother up north...another way to overpopulate and claim the fastest growing lies!

coldsummer:
God will so punish these people. These are a few of the major people hindering progress in this country. So they will allow their 11 year old kids to be f....d.


wicked and foolish old things without brains

I guess this idiots re more clueless than I thought. So in d name of satisfying this gambaris they passed such a useless bill. Well let the bill remain in d federal cos any bastatd that does that with my siblings will join muha mad in hell trust me

I just threw up in my mouth.

11 years old? 11 years old. 11 years old.

God will punish all those pedophiles in Nigeria Senate. Disgusting old grandpapas

soe:
trust me, when i meet an elder who is sane...i ll give my respext.

Not to some inconsequential nonentity whose age does not assist his moot brain .

Sure we don't belong to the same country

That bill with 11 years can't be tolerated in the south.

Nigeria is a Fraud.

Very nonsensical. The sponsor of the bill is an ibo of APGA party and a christian. The present senate is PDP nominated with David Mark, a christian and a PDP member, an unrepentant one for that matter. Can you see how stupid and clueless you are like your former Oga Jona?

What!!!! 11 or 21

Its a shame most people cannot tell the difference between the executive arm and legislative arm of govt. Ranting about buhari. What did y'all learn in secondary school.

where are we heading to?
this isn't the change we preached or wanted. at 11years of age, such a girl will be in jss1 or jss2 which means she can start eyeing her male teachers. I know in the northern part, girls of that age put to birth or are married.
I strongly kick against this child molestation.

The bleeped up, f2ked up thing about it all is that those ridiculous pervert ass senators have just put Nigerian youths in danger. Do they not realize that pedophiles WORLDWIDE love traveling to nations that will allow them to do their perverted, disgusting, m0ronic lust for children without persecution by the government. The fools have just endangered 11 years old and up children just because of their own perverted lust. SMFH. I expect Nigeria would soon start having a problem with pedophiles "vacationing" in that country in the upcoming years. We already have problems with nasty ass "uncles and fathers" molesting and sexual harassing their own family members in Nigeria, now this illiterates just gave leeway for oyinbo to come in and join in. mschewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. When is that country going to divide already. I don tire for backwardness.

Is this part of the change that was promised Nigerians?
