Every time something like this happens in the North, the same people who scream “family values” suddenly lose their voices.
If this happened in the South, we’d already be hearing sermons about “moral decay,” tribal think-pieces, and 50 WhatsApp broadcasts blaming Nollywood.

But up North?
Silence. Excuses. “Let the authorities investigate.”
Meanwhile, a man got married on Thursday and was in the mortuary by Sunday.

Let’s be honest: gender-based violence isn’t a southern or northern thing — it’s a Nigerian thing.
But the selective outrage is wild. People shout “our culture!” until the culture exposes its own cracks.

If we’re going to drag one region every time a woman sneezes wrong, then let’s also keep the same energy when a whole groom gets stabbed in his sleep one week after wedding vows.

Consistency shouldn’t be this hard.

It is really very sickening how we have been programmed to make light of women being violent on men but tend to all have a voice when it is the other way round. Like how is that even right? For God's sake that's somebody's son, somebody's brother, uncle, friend etc stabbed dead in his sleep just few days after using his hard earned money to marry. It is all shades of wrong and i condemn it in all its entirety.

It seems marriage between older men and younger ladies often ends in trouble and violence

Lovit:
Speak for the same Muslim women and see them attack you

Muslim women are an endangered species and slaves; they have no right or say.

Their men control everything.

forcing a young woman to marry a man she does not love just because Islam says so, is slavery

The end is always disastrous

Waoh! This is another twist!

This happened because we failed to listen to the teachings of the Prophet as we ought to.

Narrated from Ibn ‘Abbās (radiyallāhu anhumā) who said:

“A virgin girl came to the Prophet (salallāhu ‘alaihi wasallam) and stated that her father had married her off against her will. So Allah’s Messenger allowed her to choose [to either stay with him or to leave him].”
(Reported by Ahmad (2469), Abu Dāwud (2096, 2097) and Ibn Maajah (1875). Shaikh Al-Albāni graded the narration saheeh in his checking of Sunan Abī Dāwūd)

Marriage is not by force! The lady's permission should be sought!
