While Nigeria takes one step forward, the north drags the rest of the nation back 10 steps. It's such a shame the kind of things that happen in this country. You chose to marry off "orphaned girls" and pay for the ceremony because their families cannot afford them. Why not empower the girls first? Is marrying them suppose to be a form of rehabilitation or poverty alleviation? Marrying them off to breed more children who will be thrown to the streets and used as willing tools for election and other vices 115 Likes 10 Shares |

I understand why she withdraw. Those stoneaged backward religious mafias threatened her. The orphans could not have made the decision to be married off. The State failed to protect their parents from bandits and kidnappers. And the only way to compensate their children that are bereaved is not to fund their education but to marry them off to sex starved, hórny, irresponsible lazy men that cant afford payment of dowry. 106 Likes 12 Shares |

Northern men who love underage Kpekus were already raising hell, many of those girls will end up with VVF due to forced penetration by the heavily endowed men that will marry them as 5th wives and they will be abandoned with leaking uterus and bladders waiting for NGOs or Ministry of Women's Affairs to conduct surgeries on them in the near future. North and South are like 3 different countries 28 Likes 1 Share

MURIC erred here and the same Niger State rep erred too. The logical thing here is empowering those girls via education and vocational trainings till they are ready for marriage is the main thing to do. Some of them aren't mature for marriage and they are pushed into it. In their own minds, it's an easy means to escape poverty but they are likely going back to poverty promaxxx. What's the source of livelihood of their husbands? Have they been veted to be capable? You empower a girl before becoming a wife. This is what their region isn't doing. It's cultural defect they are celebrating. As for the minister petitioning them, she's right and she shouldn't v chickened out. She backed down for politics reasons. All these asslicking of North cis of election is absurd. It's time women in north and those in so called religion of peace should stand for their rights. Are they really observing women rights? A good for nothing boy here called numericalguy is trolling me. Mods epp me o! 11 Likes 3 Shares |

![]() Pure bullshit They have sold those young girls to the perverts in North, trust me, that's why some Imams in North are supporting the marrying off of those little girls. The perverts them couldn't even wait for their imaginary 7 virgins in heaven. How can a religion be promoting paedophile? Nonsense and ingredients 111 Likes 6 Shares

Beats the imagination how a whole minister could initiate a suit against a State assembly and even petition the police based on a media report. Could she not have reached out directly to the persons on the other side to get information first? This whole thing underscores the sorry state of journalism in Nigeria. Report first, verify later.

Nobody can save a man who wants to self-destruct from himself! The Muslim North is free to do whatever they like, but what I will strongly advise against is using public funds to finance their needless pilgrimage! If you want to go to Mecca, be ready to finance the trip yourself or turn to your governors for financial support. 1 Like 1 Share |
