Nigerian Student Alleges Her Girlfriend Was Forced Into Marriage by Her Father
A Nigerian student has appealed for help after alleging that her girlfriend was forced by her father to end their relationship and marry a man he selected. She said her girlfriend was kept at home for eight days before the marriage was arranged. In a message shared online, the girlfriend reportedly said she had no choice and feared that contact with her friends could put them in trouble. The student argued that parents may offer guidance but should not compel their children to marry against their wishes. She said forced marriage can cause emotional distress and long-term problems for those involved.
