One Dyoni Chux said: “My dear, whether school drama or not, I’ve seen this type of marriage happening several times. I could be that he’s an only son to his father who’s also an only son. And if he’s been trained to be mature in spirit and mentality nko? See forget all these new set standards that are ruining Africans.

“Back in the days our great grandfathers married at age 17-21 to wives from 12–17. That’s why they give birth at early stage, concentrate and raise their children early, and retire at the age of 40-55 years as elders and grandparents with large households. That is why the live up to 120years. But because of western education everybody wants to acquire certificate and end up as okokporo.

“Ladies will now get to menopause while they’re waiting for rich man’s proposal in the name of maturity at the end of the day, someone will still be paying university tuition for their children at the age of 70-80 when they should be relaxing and enjoying old age. Western invasion has dealt with Africa!”

While another commenter wrote: “Tijesunimi Adeyemo It’s Either a school drama. Or the girl is already pregnant for the guy. Just thinking tho.”
