“My Uncle, Yahaya, gave my hands in marriage to a man, Saminu, who I don’t love. And I told them I don’t love him. When I told my uncle I don’t love him, he insisted that the marriage must go on. His wife, Ina Yahaya, intervened that since I said I don’t love the man, he should allow me be. But he shut her mouth up, saying she cannot take decisions for him and that he has the right and authority over me and not her. Our marriage was two weeks old."
