Nigerian singer, Di’ja condemns child marriage while speaking on Obstetric Fistula

Nigerian singer, Hadiza Blell, popularly known as Di’ja, has condemned child marriage. She made this known while talking about Obstetric Fistula. She wrote;

“Our young girls need to be allowed to grow up before doing grown man and women things like marriage and anything to do with sexual reproduction. If you really mean well you will at least give her until 18 years old, while honestly guiding her spirit. Not every one means well.”

Reacting to a follower comment that 18 years was still too young for a lady to marry, Di’ja said:

“That’s why I say “at least” legally the laws. But even that IS too young. Especially in today’s world.”

Still raising awareness about Obstetric Fistula, the mother of three wrote: “DO YOU KNOW ABOUT OBSTETRIC FISTULA? Very high in young girls early marriages whose reproductive systems have not fully developed. Ya Allah we ask you for guidance. Our children cannot keep going through pain because of lack of understanding”
