Eradicate Early Child Marriage | Stellamaries Eziamaka Etokwudo
Women and female children are important and should not be subjected to any ill-mannered behaviour.
The term early marriage is an economic catastrophe that should be eradicated in African societies and the world at large.
Female children should be allowed to grow up into adulthood before being given out in marriage. This early marriage cripples societal development because those young female children who are meant to have a positive impact in society if given the opportunity are now married off to older men and be subjected to all manner of inhumane behaviour and abuse.

Women and female children are important and should not be subjected to any ill-mannered behaviour.
