Wasilu Umar admitted killing her husband, who was more than twice her age, by concealing rat poison in his food, the police in Kano said. Three other people also died and 10 were taken to hospital apparently after eating the same food. ...[/quote]
Gonna be controversial here, but good. Forced marriages are disgusting, especially when she's still just a fucking child. Sucks for him that he's dead, sucks for her that she'll go to prison (or worse), but imo forced marriage is a prison in its own right.

Which is really really sad.
I was really conflicted about how bad was poisoning him until I noticed three other people died as well and ten more got injured. Talk about collateral damage.

A Nigerian princess needs your help, please send $10,000. But seriously, good for her.
Is there something like, child bride insurance or something over there? Cause one family lost a lot of their investment. Forced marriages are often bought.
[QUOTE=Venezuelan;44515639]Yeah but also "Three other people also died and 10 were taken to hospital apparently after eating the same food."[/QUOTE] She was sold off as what can effectively be called a slave. I really have no sympathy for the people affected. Hopefully this catches on.

[QUOTE=Paul McCartney;44515661]Bridesploitation. QUICK WE GOTTA MAKE A MOVIE[/QUOTE] Wasn't this covered in Captain Planet or whatever the fuck that Tom Hanks movie was? I didn't see it, I just know it's about Nigerians and Tom Hanks.
[QUOTE=Robman8908;44515642]A Nigerian princess needs your help, please send $10,000. But seriously, good for her.[/QUOTE] She killed four people and most probably gonna get hanged. Good for nobody.
[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;44515671]She killed four people and most probably gonna get hanged. Good for nobody.[/QUOTE] People in her position probably view her as a hero.
[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;44515671]She killed four people and most probably gonna get hanged. Good for nobody.[/QUOTE] It's good for me, I got a movie idea. Kill bill with child brides. It'll sell millions.
[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;44515671]She killed four people and most probably gonna get hanged. Good for nobody.[/QUOTE] The way I see it, the three others that died were also supporters of child-bride bullshit, so collateral or not, it'll teach more supporters to watch their steps.
[QUOTE=Grimhound;44515653]She was sold off as what can effectively be called a slave. I really have no sympathy for the people affected.

I wouldn't be surprised if they were for instance his other wives.
[QUOTE=Robman8908;44515680]The way I see it, the three others that died were also supporters of child-bride bullshit, so collateral or not, it'll teach more supporters to watch their steps.[/QUOTE] I'm sorry but how on earth do you know that and also can you really morally justify getting murdered for not dissenting the practice
It's Nigeria. Literally anything is possible there because of the weird cultural fusion.
[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;44515681]How do you know that? I wouldn't be surprised if they were for instance his other wives.[/QUOTE] Well it's a pretty good chance they were. If they were wives though, then that sucks for them and they have my sympathy.
[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;44515681]Well now she will be a dead murderer slave. I fail to see how this helps the cause.[/QUOTE] She will be a martyr.
[QUOTE=Grimhound;44515779]She will be a martyr.[/QUOTE]I hope that's supposed to be a joke
[QUOTE=Grimhound;44515779]She will be a martyr.[/QUOTE] She won't be a martyr because everyone will forget about this (everyone outside of that local area) in about 1-2 weeks. Still, locally, it'll just be shrugged off as a dumb girl not getting what she wants.
Well, I guess it's sort of okay.. She got out of her forced marriage, but she did kill three other people. Still, I am reminded of an older story of a forced marriage involving a girl around the age of 10 to 12, she died of internal injuries / bleeding on the night after the wedding. No spare guesses to where they were located. Still than dying to that in her case I guess.
[QUOTE=Paul McCartney;44515661]Bridesploitation. QUICK WE GOTTA MAKE A MOVIE[/QUOTE] Pretty sure a bunch of these already exist, like the movie Child Bride.
[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;44515790]I hope that's supposed to be a joke[/QUOTE] Are you dense? The people in Nigeria who are against child marriages are going to put her on a pedestal and use her as an example of why forced child marriages are a shitty thing.
[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;44515671]She killed four people and most probably gonna get hanged. Good for nobody.[/QUOTE] Good for the undertaker.

It's neither good nor bad. It's just life.
[QUOTE=Propane Addict;44516632]Are you dense? The people in Nigeria who are against child marriages are going to put her on a pedestal and use her as an example of why forced child marriages are a shitty thing.[/QUOTE] Hahaha, aren't you naive. That's like saying that people who die to war against drugs are actually having impact on the process of legalization. Besides, she's a murderer, I doubt anybody will want to make their icon out of her anyway.
[QUOTE={TFS} Rock Su;44515634]Except that forced marriage is basically everywhere in most of Africa countries and India. Which is really really sad.[/QUOTE] but. c-culture!
[QUOTE=Matthew0505;44517144]It's almost as if child brides don't care for the lives of their captor's friends. I wonder why?[/QUOTE] So if you don't care for someone's life and can justify it for yourself, it's okay to kill them in cold blood?
