Mathematically speaking,
33÷3 =11
15÷3= 5.

11 - 5 =6.
So their age difference is 6years.
Not a bad one.

If anybody quote me I will unleash Abidoshakar after u.

I’m observing a similar situation here. The aunt filled me in on the details, and I felt compelled to intervene. She confided in me, revealing the troubling circumstances at hand.

From her tone, it seems she might be inclined to accept the situation, with the boy's mother in the USA and the father being a pastor living in Nigeria. If I hadn't urged the girl's aunt to act, we might have been dealing with a similar issue here in my current location.

I've come to understand that families who tolerate such abhorrent practices are either struggling financially or complicit for selfish reasons.

The sentence is grammatically correct. However, for improved clarity, consider the following alternative: "Vile individuals prey on innocent teenage girls.".

At 18, she should be worrying about her class assignments and semester exams, and not how to cook 'ogbònò' soup for you in the kitchen and in the bed this night..
Oga rest. Many people graduated at 18 too.

No Sir, unless that same government can stop early pregnancy and abortions at that same age. Otherwise no difference.

This is very funny, I can see the hand work of evening newspaper all over this case. grin

They are like "over my dead body should this little girl marry in my presence while I have been searching for my whole life"

The enemy of the marriage is within the vicinity very bitter one

I will only support the marriage if the man conduct towards women were fair , not after deflowering multitude you will now seek for Virgin like our Nairaland LALAMI or whatever he is called

After you don flex your youthful age as a guy, you just want to deny that small girl the basic things of life.... who told you marriage is the ultimate goal of a woman in life ?


They should be prosecuted and charged to court immediately.

My only issue here is the fact that the girl seen not physically matured given her smallish and fragile stature. Some girls at the age of 15 are already developed physically and ready for marriage. As far as I'm concerned, if a girl is physically grown at 15, has no one sponsoring her education and so on, she is very free to marry if a decent man comes for her. Though I wouldn't be the man, I think the whole idea of fighting against early marriage for girls is mostly driven by feminism and the "woke" mindset.

In no distant past, women got married from the age of 15 especially if such women had attained physical maturity at that age. As for the alleged health risks like VVF and cervical cancer, VVF is more about body structure maturity and many girls at that age have attained maturity in that regard and would comfortably birth children without VVF. It should also be remembered that VVF can happen as a result of medical errors during child delivery by untrained persons and to women who might even be older. On the other hand, the claim about the risk of cervical cancer is unfounded and not based on solid evidence!

This is me thinking out of the box and trying to separate facts from 'wokism' since I have many women who got married early and are doing fantastically well today health wise even after having many children. Some people here like pocohantas have accused me severally of having a fetish for small girls and all that but that wouldn't deter me from pursuing the fact rather than sheepishly following some unfounded and biased claims of feminists just to be seen as "woke".

It's not hypocrisy. It’s doing what is right. If you allow a girl of 14 to be marriageable that means all those things you stated is allowed.

The 'guilty' are afraid of who? Though I prefer marrying younger girls who are within the legal age of consent, I cannot go below 18years for personal reasons. Also, I'll rather remain unmarried than marry any EP from the age of 30 and above.

Having said the above, I believe strongly that some of you feminists who are vocal in fighting younger girls getting married do that for some mischievous reasons. You want such girls to have same ill fate of being lonely and unmarried at old age just the way you are. Misery, they say, loves company!

It’s the timing.

The girls body and mentality never mature for such.

Nobody cares about your emotional tantrums and beef with EPs.

My point has always been clear, I do not support teenage and underaged marriage. I have never said early marriage. Once again __TEENAGE MARRIAGE. If you like, twist it on its head and claim I want them to join me in misery. Time will tell who actually wants them miserable by encouraging marriage and childbearing at 15yrs.

But a girl of 15 can have multiple boyfriends, have sex, get pregnant and have kids or do multiple abortion.

[quote author=OEPHIUS post=137624244] is not an excuse in law.
Ndidiamaka the matchmaker of the marriage must face the law and be convicted despite her plea that she did not know that underage marriage is not allowed by law.

MadPolitician:
Good decision..
The governors forum in the South East should go a step further to make a mandatory law banning marriages for ladies and men below 20 or 22.
Basically make it a law that one must access certain level of tertiary education before marriage. Even if it is a skills acquisition school. If you refuse education, you should not vote and you should not procreate..
Families started by illiterates constitute a great nuisance to the society!
Nice idea.

Very true.

my dearest Ishi. Take a very good look at the faces of the individuals, involve in this unholy matrimony, you can clearly see one thing written: poverty

The very reason why their faces are hardened like that of granite. People like this can kill.

In my family, all my sisters married when they were mature and had already achieved a great deal in life. However, in your society — which I know well — many girls begin sexual relationships at a very early age. Some even have multiple boyfriends. Just last week I directly witnessed a girl of 18 who died after complications from an abortion. By all indications she had been sexually active for many years.

My point is this: under such circumstances, it seems hypocritical to prevent the few among them who are mature and responsible enough from legitimizing their relationship through marriage. A marriage to a responsible man does not necessarily impede a woman’s educational progress. On the contrary, a supportive and responsible partner may help her succeed more quickly than she could on her own.

The matchmaker, Mrs. Ndidiamaka, claimed she did not know child marriage was a crime. The Ministry’s legal team immediately educated her and others on the provisions of the Enugu State Child Rights Law, which criminalises early marriage and prescribes penalties for offenders"
