#ChildNotBride: I Have Never Given Out My Daughters in Marriage Before University Graduation - Atiku

Here is what Atiku Abubakar had to say on the under age marriage issue...
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.
