The High  Court in Tudun Wada, Gusau in Zamfara State yesterday upheld the marriage between an 18 year old boy and a 55 year old woman and declined a request from the boy’s mother to annul the marriage.
Hajiya Aisha Abubakar, mother of the groom, sued the 55 year old bride Ai Maikare, seeking the marriage’s dissolution on account of age disparity between the couple. She also alleged that the woman charmed her son and lured him into marrying her.

However, in his judgment yesterday, the judge, Bashir Danmaisule dismissed the case, stating that there was no ground for the court to dissolve the marriage. He said all the four witnesses who testified had told the court that the marriage was contracted according to Islamic rites.

He also dismissed as baseless the argument of the groom’s mother that there was no representation from either his paternal and maternal sides during the wedding. The judge said the Sharia requires only the representative of the bride to be present at the wedding prayer.

He said at the age of 18, the groom is mentally matured to engage a woman for marriage, citing Suratul Nisai verse 3 in the Holy Qur`an where men are enjoined to marry up to four wives. The judge said under the Sharia, only women are compelled to bring their representative before solemnizing a marriage, but as for men, they can send even a slave or an unbeliever to represent them if they so wished.

The judge however ordered the groom to go and tender an apology to his mother for disobeying her wish and to seek for her forgiveness.

After the verdict, the groom, Bashir Abubakar and his bride Ai Maikare expressed happiness over the judgment and told our reporter that they would continue to live as husband and wife. Bashir also promised to apologize to his mother as ordered by the judge.

Yesterday’s court sitting attracted a large crowd of people who besieged the court premises to witness the outcome of the marriage saga.
