So Zik was apparently 70 when he married a 16 years old girl, no? And the overwhelming majority if these disgusting pedos are Igbos. That shows it is not only the Northern Muslims who are guilty of sha.gging - Igbos are also involved in the shameful act. So why all the propaganda making it a Northern thing, when it is bigger than one region? I still don't understand what a 70-year old man saw in a 16-year old girl. That is just disgusting and shameful, and threads like this one should never grace the FP due to how influential he was. Ditto Ojukwu and his marriage to his god daughter. I don't like this thread. 1 Like |

If you guys are of the opinion that these girls are gold diggers what do you say about a 35yrs old mallam marrying a 12 yrs old Isha? Isn't tha age gap that much too? Afterall the age diff btwn our incumbent president and his wife isn't a small something. Does that also mean Isha Buhari is a gold digger? |

This shows the misconception that you must be "in love" with someone to marry. Love is a requirement "in" marriage, not "for" marriage. It's incumbent on the man to "love" the woman he marries, and the woman to "submit" to the man she is married to. @OP, but why is your case study only Igbo couples, is this phenomenon peculiar to a particular tribe? |

Empero1:Don't be foooolish..Can't you brainstorm for once in your life?All these so called "virtues" seem to be good enough for tieing the knot..You are obviously not married and still reasoning like a juvenile.. Marriage is for MATURED ADULTS..Don't come here and talk nonsense..GROW UP!A lot of young one today,especially the women folk are just plain hollow and dense in their ways..Anyone with the confidence that he'll achieve his heart desire wouldn't start doing rubbish like marrying a much much older person all for money..what really is the big deal in making money..ANY WHITEWASHED FOOOL CAN MAKE MONEY..A lot of folks just don't have that orientation..Young folks just sit back and daydream of a good life..and the way out is to marry and older person that has his life juices almost spent..SACRILEGIOUS!!! |

@OP, You get time sah. Ladies who marry 'baba olowo' do so, to achieve there dream by having a legal claim to spend his money. Example: Lara Oshiomole. She is more famous than Abimbola Fashola(wife). The main part is, its all about give and take. The 'baba olowo' need fresh whole; and the babe need money and fame to reach where she wants to. She as nothing to contribute than are point zero and given the man children[lucky 4her if she gat male child] who will futher seal that baba olowo famous name. |

Freemanan:Where did you see in the bible that an old man should not marry a young maiden? Christian religion does not prohibit marriage between consenting adults, they have to live with the consequences anyway. |

starG7:Yeah... There what is called "Sustainable development". Such marriage is geared at it. To bring more money, higher status and in the case Where the family is involved, more prosperity and connections. A broke girl can't really marry a billionaire nau, Where she wan see am? You have to be doing well to some extent too. 1 Like |

Whatever be the case those doing so have their reasons which may be similar or totally different from the outlined ones. They are doing so for status- money, fame, position, power among others. |
