Maybe the boy is an only son...

They should have waited for the boy to mature more... some of these marriages hit the rock later when the boy becomes a man.

Let's stop this tradition. My friend from Ukpor, it's in Nnewi South LGA in Anambra, his grandfather is also his father. It happened that the a man married an older girl for his very small only son. The man then fathered some children on behalf of his son. However when the boy became of age he was told that the kids he had been running away with all his childhood were actually his children. He told them that they r mad n proceeded to get a woman his age as a wife. He was just making noise because the community sees the first woman as his wife even though she was order than him n the children as his if he likes let him go n marry twenty other wives n give birth to a battalion. The children are recognized as his children.

Now there is big wahala in that family... grandfather is dead, the woman married for him is dead but he has refused to accept those children (my friend is one of them). If he dies now who is his first son?
Wow. Is this some made up stuff or is this for real. See wahala for kids that didnt plan it.

Now the grandpa was the guilty one here. Why didnt he just marry the wife for himself. Selfish guy who has now left problem for his children.

Happy marriage life to the teenagers. This youngsters might been nakking even at age 11 and 10. For me it's a right thing they decided to make it known and I'm happy their parents consent to their request of getting married. Best wishes and I pray God bless them with wisdom to go about the affairs of their marriage.

My brother it's real. It's just a matter of understanding. There's nothing the man can do. Those children are his according to tradition n the community recognizes them as his he can't reject them. At least not in igbo land. The older woman was well married with all marriage rites done. In igbo, once a community agrees to a thing it becomes not only a tradition but also a law.

Let's wait for Nairaland's Madam "no consent with a minor" to tell us if the boy can be termed a rapist

If the parents in question had told the boy to look for his own house and means of living first before he gets married, should he had gone ahead?
If the girl's parents had disapproved except she is pregnant, should he had continued? NO! The fault is from both parents, if it is a very wealthy family, people should have said they sold the girl out!
What's this?

You know absolutely nothing about what you're talking about.
What do you mean by the statement in bold, cos it made no iota of sense grammatically? Do you mean age gap between siblings in an average Igbo home? And you said it's one year? Wow! You're just an arrogant ignoramus!

This is how life should be. If people marry early as virgins, most people in the Would would have good conscience throughout life time.

GOOD NEW!!! We've brought in Solar Electric Cars into the Country. And we've also brought in new sets of Lithium powdered Solar Generators. Contact me for pictures and to come over to our Office to get yours.
Marry as virgins with no Education, a home to call their own nor means of living? Can you listen to yourself?
Why didn't you do the same?

Why is it that the Igbos and the Yorubas always come with daggers & knifes to almost every post on nairaland. Two dominant & different people, so close in some many ways and so far from each other.

There are people from other places here too who don't disturb like these two...
Leave them, let them kill themselves with bombs sef, if dem do burial, I go go chop rice.

The platform is faulty!

Not children. It's tradition that an only son marries early to keep the family name alive. How some people go about it might be a problem...
