What is the Fate of Nigerian Child Bride who Killed her Husband?

Last month, KD BLOG reported the case of 14-year-old Wasila Umaru, a child bride who killed her husband because she did not love him and was forced to marry him. She was then charged with  “culpable homicide“ after giving a confession.

Many of our readers expressed outrage at this story, questioning why her age and rationale for committing the crime didn’t prevent her from being charged.

Someone may have an answer to this question: Bolaji Owasanoye, Executive Director of Human Development Initiatives, and member, Lagos State Child Rights Implementation Committee. 

Owasanoye explains that under Sharia law, which is applicable in Kano, where the crime was committed, the age of criminal responsibility is set at puberty. Because Umaru was married off when she had already began to undergo puberty at age 14, she is likely to be made criminally responsible for her crime.
