Update On 15-Year-Old Pregnant Girl Given Out In Marriage To 66-Yea-Old Man In Nnewi

Yesterday, LIB shared the story of a 15-year old pregnant girl simply identified as Ebube, who was forced into marriage with a 66-year-old man.

Well, activist, Prince Harrison Gwamnishu, who discovered the girl,
has given an update on the efforts himself and his team are making to
rescue her from the forced marriage. He shared photos of Ebube on his
Facebook page and wrote

This evening, we rounded up our investigation in Nnewi, Anambra State.

Ebube was 14yrs, staying with her aunty when she got pregnant and was
chased away. Her parents rejected her. The street became her shelter.
Her family heard about a 65yrs old man (Now 66yrs) who was looking for a
wife and Ebube was remembered.

Ebube was married out to the man with her pregnancy.

She was happy when she heard she’s leaving the marriage for school #PenNotPenis

Early marriage is a huge violation of human rights. #RespectHumanRights

The 21st century is the age when every person, regardless of age,
gender and social status, can do anything and follow their dreams with
full support from their family. Sadly, many young girls do not have a
voice in the matter.

They are raised to believe that they are made for serving their
husbands, without a chance to get proper education and profession, when
in reality women can be powerful and inspirational, and achieve great
things.

Child Marriage is not a northern thing as we are made to believe #EndChildMarriage

THE GOODNEWS IS, SHE’S NOT SPENDING THIS WEEKEND IN NNEWI. #RetrieveEbube. We are paying everything paid to free her from Modern day slavery #SexSlave
