"content": "Underage marriage should strictly speak to the constitutional and medical definition of age. Madam Temporary Speaker, having recognised that, there is the other limb. The other limb is that, in the definition of age, ‘children’ mean different things to different communities. I practiced medicine in Coast for six years, and I respect the coastal people. We have this shadowy people found within the extended family of the child and some found within the families of men. They prepare a child for marriage when those children are less than 16 years old. Many times, I would see expectant mothers aged 14, 15 and 16 coming for attention. We will have to align this, so that when punishment is allowed, it is not tampered with the culture of that community. Do not slap me."
