Some people just like to shoot their lip, you should refer to oby post today.

SLS was consulted on the issue from the start and he made a decree that the girl be returned, and left it at that with the opinion the correct action had been taken, only for this to resurface that the girl had not been handed over to the Bayelsa command , a failure of both the Kano police command and the sharia court

The person you quoted was referring to Senator Ben Bruce not Sanusi.

Where did you read it as so, child marriage is not an islamic principle but one born of human design, same as the idea that children below 18 are not fit for marriage. The latter is based on scientific/health principles and nothing else and now supported as a social standard.

The young king Edward was betrothed as young as 10 years and in areas of central Europe till the mid twentieth century, it was common for girls to marry at 14-15. It was in fact a social norm, it has been argued marry was no more than 18 when Jesus was born.

The modern man sees a person below 18 getting married as inappropriate because such an individual maybnot have attained the minimum scholarly qualification of WAEC and therefore has a limit placed on them.

Hold it! Beyond health and social concerns, it is the law! That law is binding on all and not selective. The legal age for marriage is 18. We are no longer in the medieval times and this is so not Europe of the previous centuries.

Is referring to Mary supposed to lend some weight to this argument you're trying to put up? You've got to be kidding me! You just waved aside the grave health and legal implications in such cavalier manner. How shameful!

Go and update your knowledge of the Child Rights Act...the reason for placing the age of consent has nothing to do with educational achievement of WAEC or anything else. It is meant to protect children until they are of an age when they can understand and make choices. Otherwise poor underprivileged people who cannot afford basic education should not get married even above 18 because they are limited by WAEC or children who have an early start and get their O'levels as early as 14years old are fit to marry. Is that what you're trying to imply just to shy away from the fact that a laws was indeed broken as far as forcefully marrying an underage child is concerned?

Proof of what? That Sharia law specifies amputation or that alcohol is banned on some states in Northern Nig while the enjoy proceeds from taxation of said item? Don't create the impression of being a simpleton now...it's glaring but don't confirm it by words please.

This country is a very one kind place! When the parents of Ese Oruru followed the rational, logical and legal way to retrieve their daughter, they were toss to and fro. Now that social media is involve, complacent officials have started doing the right thing they should have done. We are our own worst enemy. The govt is not our problem neither corruption our problem is our ourselves. the loss of patriotism, respect for the feelings of others and for our laws are the whys we are not moving forward as a country.

Well said..

You have not added anything beyond what I've written.

It is a social construct and rightfully so, as adjusted to modern human standards, however it is scientifically proven a young girl of 14 years may be sexually mature, likewise a young boy, this does not make it socially acceptable and our legal system has established 18 years which is agreeable to all with sense and reasoning as appropriate.

But for those who want to use this sad incidence as a tribal weapon to attack the greater community the man Yinusa and Emir Sanusi represent are evil and I'm patiently waiting for the girl to be emotionally able to be a witness in the legal proceedings so we can know the true fullness of the story. Many have been accusing Emir Sanusi of aiding the abduction.

And you think your fulani brothers have notgiven her enough threats to last a life time? Did u listen to that staged recording? If they can make her do that and even kidnap and forcefully marry her off from the comfort of her state that is so far away from the north, you think she will ever be stable enough to testify against those dogs?

Some people just like commenting without taking the pain to know what is being discussed.

Are we talking of SLS or Ben Bruce "the Twitter Senator"?

And how did you come to such a far fetched conclusion.

If you are going to conclude I'm Fulani anything is possible
