STOP BEING DISGUSTING CRADLE SNATCHERS- MEN TOLD.
Dr Akinwumi A. Adesina, President of African Development Bank (AfDB), has appealed to men who marry underage girls to marry women whose ages complement theirs.. According to him, child marriage was one of the serious gender-based violence being meted out to girls in many African countries. Dr Adesina was speaking at a meeting of the Organisation of African First Ladies for Development (OAFLAD) in New York. "Marry your own age mates and leave our girls alone," he said. He said the situation has led to a vicious cycle of poverty and dependence for millions of women and girls on the African continent
