CHILD MARRIAGE: Read Atiku Abubakar's Statement

Ex-Vice President, Atiku Abubakar speaks out on the Child Marriage issue currently going on in the country.
"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".
