There were reports about a week ago that the Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido was preparing to marry a 17 year scion from Adamawa (smile). The monarch has come out to debunk the rumor stating he has to plans or intention to marry a 17 years old girl from a Adamawa royal family.
He made his opinion known while answering questions about marriage between adult men and underage girls, stating that he fully supports the right of children not to get forcibly married before attaining the constitutionally stipulated age of 18 years.
So, basically the emir is getting married but has to wait till she's 18 before it's announced or made official.
