You are spreading falsehood.. the constitution has no such loophole. 21 years is the age under marriage act and parental consent is required for those under 21. I quoted the matrimonial causes act as well as the child rights act... the matrimonial causes act and the child rights act are in force in the South and those who flout them commit a crime... having sex with anyone under 18 is statutory rape and people have been sentenced to life imprisonment in Lagos for this. You are just talking like a paedophile... how can any sane person say that you don't need the consent of the bride in marriage disgraceful... the north obviously argues that their religion allows them to marry underaged girls and that is being addressed. Give me an example of anyone who has married a woman below 18 in a marriage registry in the South... you are dangerously ignorant or deliberately spreading falsehood...

when you feel that to make your point you have to insult the other person know you are losing the plot. This thread is about marriage not rape. The article I referenced did talk about imo state being one of the states with a high child marriage rate and that's an article from human rights watch. It's up to you to hold on to whatever you believe. I'm done.

SonofElElyonRet:


So you can marry off a person without her consent My goodness... I will not quote any section. You go find it. That's trite law and even a law undergraduate knows this... Dgolly !!! How can you even argue that a person can be married off without her consent Consent must be freely given by the person getting married and not under duress or fraudulently obtained...

p.s. Section 3. Sub section 1(d) matrimonial causes act is explicit enough
The child rights act is also explicit enough. Child Rights Act (part III, Section 21)
No person under the age of 18 years is capable of contracting a valid marriage, and accordingly a marriage so contracted is null and void and of no effect whatsoever.

The article under should enlighten you the more...

https://nigeria.action4justice.org/legal_areas/womens-rights-focusing-on-marriage-rights/right-to-freely-enter-into-marriage/

The child rights act does not invalidate the marriage act. You are letting the morality of the topic beguile your attention to detail. That's why you keep going and hominem. That a lawyer defends a criminal in court doesn't mean he himself is a criminal. His job is to help his client interprete the law.

Even the article clearly states that not all states of the federation has adopted the child rights act inti their legislation. Here's an article that clearly state that despite the fact that Imo state was one of the first to adopt the child rights act, underaged marriage there is still one of the highest in the state and the reason is because the constitution has that loophole that a parent can marry an underaged child off. Wether it is moral is a different quest.

You are right. The report failed in that regard. It's Ile epo, oke odo

Is that not Former speaker Dimeji Bankole's Hotel that's located after iyana iyesi? I heard that hotel has terrible swimming pool

With the way the police is quick to try and cover up, it probably belongs to him. Either way, it belongs to an influential person, that's why there's pressure on the woman to let go of any case.

SonofElElyonRet:


Your post is extremely irresponsible and gross misinformation.

The marriage act actually says 21 years and the consent of parents is required if the person is below 21 ! The marriage act states that the consent of the person getting married is necessary and by law anyone under 18 can not consent to marriage.. it follows therefore that parental consent to marriage of a below 18 person is vain immaterial and indeed criminal. you are nothing but an ignorant person capable of causing great harm with your misleading post . It creates the impression that you are most likely a paedophile since I can't fathom why anyone would argue in favour of marriage to a minor

I will ignore your ad hominems. Please cite the section of the ACT that says that he consent of the person under age of 21 is required. Section 18 of the ACT says that a written affidavit of the father, or mother if the father is dead or not of sound mind or of the legal guardian if the mother and mother is sufficient to marry a person under the age of 21. Please provide evidence to the contrary.

If a Christian were to come out to insult the prophet in such a manner, what would be the outcome?

He's a catholic christian.

SonofElElyonRet:


18 is the age of consent in Nigeria.. go check marriage act, child rights act etc. Granted that this is sometimes contravened under the guise of religion and culture. The law however is the law... have sex with a girl under 18 and commit statutory rape punishable with life imprisonment in Lagos state

There is no underage in marriage in Nigeria. Even in Lagos. The Lagos marriage act also allows that a father can give marital consent on behalf of his daughter who is below legal age. Lagos State Marriage Act Section 18.

abobote:
16 years is due for marriage, and she is even lucky the husband is 34, which is okay.

Unfortunately the husband is an abuser.

Abagworo:
What exactly is his offense? Since the girl is up to 16, Nigerian law allows the parents to give her out in marriage while natiive law allows betrothal even as a baby.

He probably doesn't have a lawyer. If he does, he can't go to prison for giving her hand in marriage. There are however other allegations of abuse against him. Those allegations are damning as well.

Some people are abnormal nowadays.

I was on my own, then I got a call from my friend that he's at an event center. I should come so we go flex. I reminded him that I don't drink alcohol. I can only take bottle water or malt drink. He said I should come that he's feeling bored.

Before I left, I took 1k with me in case something goes out of the ordinary, I will pay for my drink and off I go. But I like paying for what I order.

Immediately I reached the place, I saw him with three more guys. They have started drink and on their second bottles. I grabbed a chair, but as I was about to have a seat, he told me to bring 2k so he can add his and pay for drinks.

I immediately left without uttering a world.


I was like, don't people think?

The mad man no even allow you siddon before he begin ask you to pay for drink wey you no drink

sheggsliveth:



I'm pretty sure the boy paid no dime....the boy could be well known there due to they share same fence or the mother's shop could even been in the hotel...I'm sure the boy can't afford to pay for the swimming...they both have fault cos the hotel should have a lifeguards but the boy wanted to cut corners to swim, I'm sure if he paid he could be given one lifeguard,it's negligence of the mgt..anyways RIP to the boy

Stop with all these kind of reasoning. The statement of the lawyer trying to defend the hotel is in the writeup. If the boy wasn't a paying customer, the lawyer would have gladly stated it. Rather the Lawyer's argument was the the hotel has floaters and life jacket for it's customers which the customer (the boy) did not use. 'you are pretty sure the boy paid no dime' which hotel will allow someone swim for free? When it's time for the pool attendant to make account to the manager he will write that some people swam for free right? Because I have worked in a hotel before and your manager or supervisor simply counts the number of people in and out of the pool to determine how much you should account for at the end of the day.

Talking about affording to pay for swimming. How much is 500-1k that the boy cannot afford? The same money that children that age have been spending in game house since the early 2000s. Are we in the new world where children don't take their parent's money to go and spend on mundane things?

Please try no dey quote me with this kind reasoning.

blaise26abj:
While hustling , pay good attention to your kids . Pools should always have lifeguards or employ someone who who can swim to oversee the pool .

Lastly the lawyer and that DPO get collabo . When a lawyer starts praising the DPO , know that padi padi arrangement don happen .

What's even worse was that
1. The police didn't bother to leave the station to investigate.

2. The police were telling her to do an affidavit swearing that she will not pursue a case against the hotel.

Dskillful:
I wonder how people drown in swimming pool, was he swimming alone? Who allowed him to swim? Nobody to rescue him?

Seriously I don't understand how people die in swimming pool.

There are unfortunate times at pool.

1. Life guards (if the pool has any) can often times become negligent for brief moments.

2. There are rare times where you might meet the pool empty and you'd have the pool to yourself.

3. There might be other people at the pool who aren't good swimmers themselves and stupidity pushes a victim to go jump in the deep end.

It could be anything

Truvelisback:
Don't blame the mgt, blame the stupid boy who must have assumed that he could swim.

You still have to blame the management. It's not every product that you can sell to minor. Why would you take money from an unsupervised kid to enter into a pool?

Make that woman no withdraw any case. The proprietor of the hotel is already trying to sweep away the case. I would argue he pays a regular sum to the police department hence the reason they are pressuring the mother not to take the case to court. The useless police didn't even bother to investigate anything. Big shame.

Na so trouble go reach some innocent persons o.

I can bet that amongst the occupants of those buses, there'll be those who had no interest and did not take part in the exchange between the mob and the police. However, with the present outcome, them go explain tire, no evidence.

Where are all the 'human rights activists' when you need one?

Oh I forgot. The abused gender is a male. He doesn't count.
