Isn't it appalling that amongst the numerous challenges our dear country Nigeria is being faced with, it is a shameful debate pushed by a bunch of perverted ignorants and sugar coated as 'protection of the child bride' due to 'self interest' would be a subject of deliberation?
So a bunch of so called leaders can sit down and agree on a 14 year jail time for same sex marriage yet advocate for 'protecting a child bride'? How hypocritical! Which is more abusive? Why should an underage girl be allowed to get married in the first place?
I encourage all women to please download a copy of the constitution and let's be fully armed with information of what we are fighting for! Remember, information is power! We fight for -
- A clear stipulation of the marriageable age for the female child
- Equal legal protection for the female child as to the male child
- Books and not boobs
- Pen and not penis
- Child and not bride!
