In a south-eastern state in Nigeria, a 14-year-old boy was married off to a 15-year-old girl. According to reports, he was forced to marry her after impregnating her.
It seems they have bitten more than they can chew in this case, as the bride is seen heavily pregnant. This implies that she had been pregnant for months prior to the marriage. A video making rounds online revealed the ceremonial events.

The girl’s father, who gave her away, advised her to be careful. He emphasised that she was no longer in her father’s house. This was heard from the video shared on GossipMillNaija.
The wedding video between the 14-year-old boy and older girl has since gone viral on social media, and there are mixed reactions to it. Some condemned the act of letting the young teens get married. Meanwhile, others applauded the parents for the decision made.
