Save the future of the girl child!
Why should a girl as young as ten be given out in marriage simply because the law of the land supports it? This is with regards to the bill sponsored by senator Yerima the former zamfara state governor that will allow a man in his right senses to marry a ten year old girl for example who knows little or nothing about life. What if I must ask is the advantage if any to such a bill? Who does it favour? The disadvantages far outweighs any such advantage? It is an infringement on the fundamental rights of the girl child which should not be encouraged. The health implication is also there to worry about. My take on this bill is that it should not see the light of day or should be fought against vehemently. Even uf such is common in the northern part of the country there should be a law to discourage would be perpertrators. Please let us rise up with one voice to save the future of the girl child!

THE ASUU STRIKE.
It is no longer news that the academic staff union of universities ASUU is on strike. The question is does labour issues have to degenerate to the extreme option of strike before relevant authorities respond. I am sure there was a notice before this action was taken. Is there no minister of education? From the last time I checked there are two ministers in charge of the education sector! And they did not deem it fit to call the ASSU leadership for dialogue before now to avert the ongoing strike. What are they there for? Why does the education sector have to suffer neglect under successive governments? This is the same sector that is looked upon for human snd capital development of the nation. Quite an irony! Is it that a state of emergency needs to be declared on the educational sector? Because as it were the sector is bedevilled by so many challenges which are solvable if there is sincerity on the part of government especially. Well, my appeal is to the government especially to quickly address the demands of Assu which I believe are not out of place as they are the ones that practically knows where it hurts. The fact is they asuu can afford to be indifferent and wait for a total collapse of the system but because they mean well for the future of the Nigerian students. The more reason all and sundry have to rally round asuu to put pressure on the Jonathan led government to sit up and address the strike without further delay!
