This video shows the sad reality of what happens in the North: the effect divorce has on children.

Divorce was freedom to him and a life sentence to them

Sad reality.

That is how they end up having so many almajiris on the streets, because of some selfish, irresponsible adults.

Divorce culture in the North is crazy. Especially in Kano.

Saw men divorce their wives over tea being too cold. Talaq, Talaq and Talaq... You don land for your Papa house.

Only there will you see a man divorce a pregnant woman. She too as soon she can force the baby to wean, she can go and drop off the baby at their gate even with the maiguard!

Where I come from, you will be forced to stay with her at least till after she delivers.

In Kano, I know a rich man whose first 2 wives are safe because they are his cousins and the extended family wouldn't take it. The other wives 3 &4, soon as they get pregnant, they seem to irritate him because he divorces them. He's done this over 20 times. I know a Bauchi woman with 9 different husbands. 3 of them on the same street shocked

Divorce isn't stigmatized and women use their fathers names so it's easy to hide if you don't do your homework.

I was house hunting at a point and saw a very well furnished apartment. Was wondering about the brand new electronics when agent mentioned that it was a couple who married 3 months previously but before moving into the house, they had divorced.

Side-pieces aren't really permitted, you marry her in, unlike Southern men get away with. But Northern men will marry a specific lady simply to taste the sugar. 6 months after when she's shown she can't even lay the bed... She gets her 3 Talaqs.

Why is the Noth mentioned?

You pay for upkeep of children in western countries.Failure to pay can land you in jail and the money forcefully withdrawn from your salary every month.No child should suffer because of irresponsible parents.

This is worse .... The children automatically are pushed to worthless alfas who indoctrinates them and use them as political nonsense to wage war on based on idiotic religious beliefs of their so called prophets.

That is how Boko boys, ISIS and Lakurawas are formed

Typical Life in the North under shariah law where divorce is the exclusive right of the man and he doesn't even need to go to court to get a divorce.

All he has to do is say: "I divorce you" to his wife 3 times in the presence of 2 adult male witnesses and the marriage automatically comes to an end. This is known as "Triple Talaq."

Under Islamic law, the husband can divorce his wife for any reason or for no reason and at any time he feels like doing so.

Meanwhile a Muslim wife can only divorce her husband under one condition and one condition only. This condition is, if he leaves Islam. She cannot divorce him because he's unfaithful to her and she cannot divorce him on the grounds of domestic violence because the koran allows husbands to "discipline" their wives

But in other places the long, expensive divorce process will make you think twice.
In Sharia man just says "I divorce you" 3 times

You definitely lived in the north. Yesterday a man divorced his wife on the spot over the grocery he bought. Apparently he came home with "shinkafa 'yar Hausa", local rice with pebbles and is extra work to pick especially in Ramadan. He felt insulted for her questioning his choice and sent her packing. Hausa men are the most unaccountable men in the world.

Cultural shock in the North, just a simple word " I divorce you' ends marriage.
One of the way the Fulani use in holding and controlling them, they are so confused
