Earlier this week, Niger Delta war-lord, Mujahid Abubakr Asari Dokubo took to Facebook to express his opinions over the current controversy surrounding the now infamous Section 29 of the constitution and the resulting #ChildNotBride controversy. Dokubo is of the opinion that the controversy is baseless and an infringement on the rights of Muslims, as people should be allowed to marry whenever they please.

“People should learn to respect other people’s sensibilities,” he wrote. “We Muslims have the right to marry when we want or give out our daughters at any age we want. It is not your business and the law must respect our right to do so.”

“Anything short of that is an infringement on our rights,” he continued. “We did not ask you to marry ladies of that age or give your daughters out in marriage at that age.Plzzzzzzzz respect our sensibilities.”
