Good luck and best wishes to Nigerians as they elect a new leader.

May the (right) new leader be the one to change Nigeria for the better.

Add to that serious and massive issue of paedophilia (child rape and marriage). The amount of unreported child rape in Nigeria is alarming. LBTGQ and transgender suggest is the most least (pardon my English) of our problems.
Woah cool it with the tribalistic remarks 😁

It's definitely not 2 years old, or 1½ nor 3 years old nor 8, nor did they consent, though I must confess I don't know what point you intend to make with this question of yours.

He initially tried to portray paedophilia and child rape as a Northern Nigeria problem hence the initial "tribalistic" comment. I think he was trying to be sarcastic in a very odd way.

The poster with the screenshot (probably a Northerner) showed him that it was a Nigerian problem and not just exclusive to the North, he switched to asking a funny question like "age of consent in those states". Lol.

You know why there are two answers to that question. One is based on the criminal code and the other is based on the penal code. Can you tell which one is which? 🤔

Pot calling kettle black. If it was democrats doing such vile act, You will be making excuses for the pedophile saying the mother planted the minor there.

If a democrat or republican or a neutral person rapes anyone I hope they have their raping tool chopped off.

Jail is not good enough, in my opinion. Though, out of mercy and fact I'm not a fan of the death sentence, jail will have to do.

I don't need to tell you anything. Fact is it's not 2, and sensible people would make it at least over 18 for themselves.

You are insinuating that the state law would let you rape a 2 year old and go scot free in Northern Nigeria.

Then it is interesting to see the police arrest a 59 years old paedophile and a rapist caught in Bauchi from the post above.

Oil prices fell by $2 per barrel to their lowest in two weeks on Wednesday, as investors became more concerned that recent economic data will mean more aggressive interest rate increases by central banks, pressuring economic growth and fuel demand.

Brent crude futures settled $2.45, or 3%, lower at $80.60 per barrel. The West Texas Intermediate crude futures (WTI) dropped $2.41, or 3%, to end at $74.05 a barrel.

U.S. crude stockpiles have grown weekly for about two months, and were forecast in a Reuters poll to have risen 2.1 million barrels last week.

PUt it in this way.Central. banks are raising interest rates in order to slow down economic growth. That means less demand for oil

I didn't insinuate that, I was talking about the systemic issue of child marriage. There are some states in this country that still haven't passed the Child's Rights Act, making it a systemic issue that we cannot generalize across all Nigerians.

Nice attempt to obfuscate the issue though.

I never said it was 2, however, there are still states in this country that allow child marriage. I never said the age of consent was 2 years old but you can keep trying to play Captain Save-A-Pedo.

Can you tell me the states that haven't adopted the Child's Rights Act that places age of majority at 18 yet? Can you tell me when each state adopted it?

You were the one trying to obfuscate. You were informed via screenshots that paedophilia is a problem all over Nigeria, so you quickly changed the topic to child marriages, state law, child act, penal law e.t.c. lol.

You could have clearly bolded just the child marriages only and leave out wirinet's other post about paedophilia and child rape. It's also interesting to know that there are child marriages, issues in the south too despite the passing of the Child's right law in some states e.g. Imo state.

That was not what triggered inflation. What triggered inflation was QE, supply chain bottlenecks and Ukraine/Russia war to an extent. You might want to check that on your favourite browser search engine.

Interestingly, your favorite politician had been QE-ing in an humming economy (even before covid hit) despite the Fed reserve's objection. This makes zero sense.

That makes no sense. It's a silly strawman argument and you know it. You can get screenshots of child abuse convictions from literally anywhere in the world. Did you really think I meant that child abuse only occurs in some parts of the country and never occurs elsewhere?

I'm talking about it as a systemic and cultural issue. Places where it doesn't get prosecuted because it is pay of the culture and law.

The fact is that the Child's Rights Act hasn't been adopted in every state in the country, can you tell me which ones haven't adopted it? Can you tell me which ones lagged behind the rest of the country for decades?

E shock you right? The other time I made a post on how CNN is blaming whites for what 5black cops did and how the cops who killed their fellow brother should rot in jail... What did wirinet do? He said I was supporting the murder of a black man... He pulled that one out of his arse. These guys are very dishonest people.

They hate Nigerians, the hate whites the only thing they love are the George Floyds of America.
They are racist, self-hating and very sad.

Change of goal post.

What has child right got to do with paedophiles raping kids. Do you think child right act would stop the rampaging paedophiles all over Nigeria. Lol

He likes tying himself in knots to confuse himself he's making a point.

The below is for UK where the age of consent has been 16 since the Criminal Law Amendment Act 1885.

Under Islamic law, adulthood is based on puberty.
So a lot clerics believe in the saying: "if her age isn't on the clock, then she's ready for the ****". Not that they could all help themselves, though.

Child abuse has always been a problem in sections of the country for to certain cultural and religious beliefs. This is why they have been dragging their feet on the Child's Rights Act.

These guys now want to tell me because these things happen in other states (where they are prosecuted as crimes, mind you) that we're all the same. I wonder if they would say the same thing if red states in America were slow in adopting this sort of law.

What "a lot of clerics believe" is irrelevant. You might as well say "a lot of paedophiles believe" and "Not that they could all help themselves", so therefore it must not be illegal, which it is.

If a cleric sexually abuses a 2 year old their ass will be in jail when caught!

You do realize that the penal code in Nigeria is heavily based on sharia law, right? Without the legal guidance of Child's Rights Act which, as at last year, 2 states were still holding out on (which is good because it was 5 as at last year when I checked), the law would default to "what a lot of clerics believe" which is why one of our senators could marry a 13-year-old.

No, I don't realise any such nonsense because it is not true.

Sharia Law has beheading as the penalty for some crimes but I haven't heard of anyone sentenced to beheading for any crime in Nigeria!

There are four distinct legal systems in Nigeria, which include English law, Common law, Customary law, and Sharia Law, but the highest court is based on English Law.
