LoL.
Your village elders and culture knows jail right?

You claim to be woke and schooled yet you are not educated.
You dont know people from everywhere have customs and traditions.
We are talking about customes and traditions you are talking about human right bullshit.
Why dont you go to Ikorodu and tell them that the women have rights and the Oro shouldnt come out in the afternoon.

MURIC clearly said she is getting involved in issues she doesnt understand, which their culture....

Why dont you go and tell Hisbah that alcohol is legal and they shouldn't destroy bottles of beer.

Most of you who claim to be woke are the most ignorant.

Go and marry an idoma woman and dont pay her bride price, if she dies you will be made to marry her dead body, go and tell the village elders about your constitutional rights when that happen. Or get an Igbo girl pregnant and see if those kids will beer your name just because the law says you are their father.
You children think this is the white mans land.

This is Africa.
Even the constitution you talk about made privisiom for customary courts, that is the constitution having respect for the customs. Ans your are here talking about rights.

Education goes beyond reading books.
You my friend lacks education

You sound like those Northern leaders who have enslaved their people.

Hisbah is a crude and dumb enforcer of Sharia law. The are bush men from the stone age. Why don't we have Hisbah in the UAE? You keep referring to tradition while conveniently forgetting that culture evolves. Why don't you ride horses anymore? Isn't it the way of your ancestors?

Tell hypocritical Hisbah to tell their thieving governor's to return the amount of money they get from the government from tax paid by breweries. MEANWHILE MANY OF YOUR NORTHERN FANATICS DRINK ALCOHOL LIKE FISHES DRINK WATER.

MURIC IS A NATIONAL ATTENTION SEEKING NUISANCE.

Shut the Bleep up! Your prophet did the same. It's culture to consistently rape a 9 year old child to the extent that she can no longer hold her pee or poo? You are very mad. Even Saudi Arabia no longer allows this insanity. I can't count how many Hajias I treated while in Nigeria with anal fissures or torn vaginas. Everything is sex sex sex to you people. You're the ones waiting for virgins when you die, you're the ones selling sex enhancers openly, you're the ones sacking villages and taking women and girls as wives, you're the ones raping children in the name of religion. Are you not cursed?

Goodlady:

Before you started ya bogus claim and cover up, learn how to make points without mumbling it up.

1. Those imams, alfas and all involved in those arranged marriages should give us the original birth certificate of those kids. Is it not same north that kids can vote and their's underaged abuses everywhere? A region which show case religion more than economic development and their region is being hurt by their culture and love for strange arab religion.

2. Orphans deserved not just instant husbands but all supports from life till they are emotionally stable to get married to husband of choice. So this school of thought is more complete than yours. One of the reasons for high rate of divorce nationwide is unaligned union. And arranged marriages in this 21st century is a factor.

3. We need to verify the genuineness of the imams claim. He himself look like your that's a potential peado.

4. You throwing jabs at southeast shows how inept you are. This writer lives in Abuja and has seen so many decayedense of northern culture. Too much early marriage, arranged marriage, poverty, suffering almajiris, terrorism, banditry, etc.
The region needs truth in approach to life.
Terrorists are kidnapping young girls to go and marry forcefully then later claimed amnesty and their wives and kids ll be brought back to town as liability for the state, causing Stockholm syndrome etc. See here, see terrible biz idea and means of breeding:

Never never try to discuss logic with a south easterener because it will be a fruitless effort.

Same thing I discouraged is exactly what this one is still doing. Will you people die if you read a write up before jumping in with your warped mentality?

Mumu minister Uju disgraced herself on a national level and only south east things she is not a disgrace to the country. If Uju was correct, why did she withdraw her suit if no be say una head don block with hatred and tribalism

Who are you that the Imams need to prove themselves to you and your lots. Na even cannibals sef dey talk

You can live over a hundred years among northerners and still not see anything good about them because you have a dead and close heart that is incapable of seeing anything good about others

Is that the truth the speaker of Niger Assembly is meant to tell according to you?


The speaker has disgraced himself, his office and his State. You as his personal assistant should be bold enough to tell him the truth.

Sadly he failed to realise that a sound education is the greatest EMPOWERMENT any one can give a woman. As the saying goes, "train a woman, train a community".

His semi-literate and lopsided understanding of EMPOWERMENT is marrying off the girls... which is akin to transferring what he sees as a liability. Shame!!!

I understand why she withdraw. Those stoneaged backward religious mafias threatened her. The orphans could not have made the decision to be married off.

The State failed to protect their parents from bandits and kidnappers. And the only way to compensate their children that are bereaved is not to fund their education but to marry them off to sex starved, hórny, irresponsible lazy men that cant afford payment of dowry.
You don't seem to understand their tactics: these couples will produce the next generation of bandits.

The north needs foot soldiers for jihad and deliberately didn't train their youths .

How many Yoruba, Igbo, Birom, Agatu, Eggon ìgalà would not train their children in one trade or the other to move their nation forward?

Until we realize that disintegration is the only solution to the problem of Nigeria, wẹ will forever chasing a mirage.

Many southerners don't get it
While southerners see nothing wrong with their girls fornicating (even though the pretend to frown at it)
The northerners prefer that the girl go to her husband house instead of fornicating.

In this case the socio-economic and health implications of marrying these girls off trump any moral justification.
Even if (according to you) there is alot fornication in the south, Paedophilia is a more serious moral issue and should be discouraged. The ages of the girls should be confirmed at the very least.

Learn how to write legibly. It's for ya futures sake.
1. You can discuss issue at As with a logical South easterner or any wise Nigerian that's detribalized. Your assumption about easterners is myopic and a description of ya dysinfuctional life.

2. The writeup has been read. No need of packaging. The exercise wasn't thoroughly conducted. They should tell the real age of those girls and if indeed their husbands are capable of starting a family.

3. Minister Juju backed down for political reasons. She just decided to call the madman a fireman in order to use the road.

4. The imams really need to sell to the world if they are indeed the religion of peace or piss!
If you call others a cannibal, then your meat must be tasty in the mouth of real cannibals.

5. Living for a day or thousand years with northern won't depict whole opinion cos we v good northerners. We all crave for a better society. Unfortunately, cr3tins like you v evil opinion about southerners. Whereas those you're defending v a region that the ills of their decay show dem shege daily. Eg: brazen corruption, poverty, terrorism, child marriage etc.

Nevertheless, the way they go about it is wrong.

Kano has very high divorce rates which may be down to the immaturity of a party or both parties in the union. You have a 17 year old already a divorcee, raising a child or two.

Useless culture. Its your culture to marry off underage girls orphaned by banditry that your corruption created in the north. Why not train them a skill or send them to school first. Useless custom and culture that is dragging Nigeria back. If you were right, why not meet in court instead of crying wolf.

Good, so you see we are back to your first goal post. And according to you, if I come to you now and say JAWBONE would you like to have this keke napep, and you say yes because that is all I offered, then you had no choice. Does that mean you didn't consent? Consent is not about being offered a multitude of choices. It is about not being under compulsion to choose even the solitary option before you. No was always an answer even if that meant having to fend for themselves. By the way the money for these marriages is not even coming from the State. According to the speaker, it was from a donation from an individual.

Secondly, these 100 girls are not the full set of girls who were considered. A list of 270 names was submitted and the speaker said these were ones chosen. So you don't even have the full picture but you are insisting because you have already concluded and now you want to make the evidence fit your conclusion. Just like I said of the minister, why can't you dig for facts from the other side?
