8,000 Women Protest Over Scarcity Of Men In Zamfara

Is this the fufillment of the prophesy in the Bible that said : " a time will come when four women would be asking for one man to marry them? Well I hope not.
The Chairperson of the Zamfara Widows Association, Hajiya Suwaiba Isa and the patron, Alhaji Sa’idu Goshe,has said they needed husbands to become whole as they were not living a normal life.

In her words;“Many of us cannot afford two meals in a day because there are no men to support us,”

Alhaji Goshe said the association had over 8,000 women, comprising 5,380 divorcees, 2,200 widows, 1,200 orphans and 80 others, whom he said, were looking for men to marry.

According to him, the women also needed assistance to purchase household items such as beds, mattresses and other basic necessities needed to move to their husbands’ houses.

Goshe appealed to the commission to assist the association in screening suitors for the women. He said the screening would determine the suitors’ health status, source of livelihood and ability to maintain a family.


May God help us.....
