In the course of investigation the Speaker's children's age should also be checked to know at what age they get married if at all they've married 23 Likes 3 Shares |

Atleast he cared for this girls more than the dubious minister. Many innocent young girls are into prostitution, did the minister wrote IGP about it? Had it been this girls are also into prostitution, the dubious minister will not raise alarm. We're now in a society and situation where some people value prostitution beyond marriage. Nobody will marry them off due to orphanage situation they found themselves. The Speaker now took a bold step to shoulder the responsibility of their deceased parents, but some one who don't even care for them is now trying to frustrate his efforts 21 Likes 3 Shares |

Hadone:Do you know the meaning of "marry OFF"? It means sending these girls to men they probably don't even know, men who are probably much older, Even if a Northern girl is to marry early, why must she be married off to a man she doesn't know? Or a man she doesn't want to be with. Is that not child slavery or even child trafficking? So you want to switch prostitution for trafficking? 32 Likes 1 Share |

Before marrying off the girls; have they given up on going to school further? Learning a trade? Has the state government tried establishing those with some skills? Were they consulted on the issue of marriage and is it with their consent? The minister is right on this one. The Minister's face looks scary and I hope it scares the speaker away from the girls ![]() 16 Likes 1 Share |

Mrs minister, mind your southern prostitute business, don't poke nose Into northern affairs. Go to Libya and see a young Southerner girl who traffics to Libya for prostitutes, you have nothing to say about them but you have the guts to go to court for those who want to marry 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Another reason other nations would laugh at us. Will the marriage make them comfortable or throw them further into poverty? Who will take care of their children? The last time I checked, most of their husbands are maigworo( those hawking colanut on their shoulders to survive). Sadly, some of the wouid-be husbands already had multiple wives at home. Human beings mean nothing in the north. Why not empower them or enrol them in vocational studies instead so that by the time they're eventually married, they'd be able to support their husbands. The north and forced marriage shaa. Relics of a lost age. 14 Likes 1 Share |

Incompetent minister, when bandits killed their parents, she did not know about any child right act to Carter or fend for them. These are girls who are ripe for marriage, but because their parents are dead there was no one to marry them off. Muslims can never choose prostitution over marriage. Hypocrites! 4 Likes 2 Shares |
