child brides in nigeria that's right bloody heathens marry them off at 12 years old, the practice is common in Nigeria’s remote northern state of Bauchi, they sell them and refer to them as women when they reach puberty the husband can be any age there is no upper limit it's their culture and they say that is the right thing for a woman to do - she will grow up quickly and learn how to take care of a man and the home and bring honor to her family poor girls

Let kids grow up first and then when they are adults, then that is okay.

Till they are at least 18 but it has been going on for a long time and I can't see Nigerian men ever stopping doing it . Misogyny at its worst.

Well, it's not only Nigeria, if you check the data from UNICEF 45% of child brides is in South Asia. Top country for child brides is India.

Poor girls indeed but how do you combat such beliefs? It's very difficult.

Omg 12? Poor young girls. I know it's their cultural tradition but I strongly disagree that marriage should be a mandatory milestone or ultimate measure of a woman's worth.
