Refreshing to see Northern Leaders standing to be counted in the fight against legalising child marriage.
Atiku Abubakar stood up to be counted and this is what he said.
Hear Him
As a father, I've never given out my daughters in marriage before university graduation. It's a personal decision. I had earlier stated my personal choices on the child marriage issue; I have always supported our women and children. For the avoidance of doubt, I do not support any constitutional provision which creates ambiguities about the age of consent for marriage. It's therefore very inspiring to see young Nigerians active and organized on #ChildNotBride. I'm proud to see an engaged generation at work.
