Let's join hands and save our girl children from under-aged marriage. Concerned Nigerians are petitioning the Nigerian Senate. Please join the fight, it may be your 13 year old sweet innocent, tender, naive daughter or niece that the "Yerimas" out there will want to marry tomorrow.

Petition by Glimmer of Hope Foundation

1. Adolescent pregnancy brings detrimental social and economic consequences for a girl, her family, her community and her nation.

2.The risk of maternal mortality is higher for adolescent girls 

3.Many girls who become pregnant drop out of school, drastically limiting their future opportunities. Adolescent pregnancy only fuels the intergenerational cycle of poverty and ill health 

4.They are still minors and their sexual reproductive rights should be protected


To:
Nigerian Senate, National Assembly, Abuja, Nigeria
House of Representatives, National Assembly, Abuja, Nigeria
Senator Bukola Saraki, National Assembly, Abuja, Nigeria 
Stop under-aged child marriage
Sincerely,
[Scopium Nwabueze]

  1. I just signed the petition. Legalizing under-age marriage is the height of moral decay in this naija.
