Bashir Ahmad Replies After A 60-Year-Old Bauchi Man Revealed That His Bride Is 21-Years-Old

A media aide to President Muhammadu Buhari, Bashir Ahmad, has reacted to a post made by a 60-year-old man from Bauchi State regarding his alleged marriage to an 11-year-old lady. Recall that a few days ago, the wedding picture of the man identified as Aminu Danmiliki went viral on social media and many people alleged the bride is just 11 years old.

However, in a post on his official Facebook account yesterday, Aminu stated that his wife is 21 years old contrary to the news circulating on social media. He said the young lady married him because she loves him and he loves her too. According to him, he wanted to keep mute but he was advised by some of his friends to state the true facts.

“Here it is: My beloved wife is 21 years old she made her own choice of me as her husband and I loved her too. I hope the blackmailers and doubting Thomas will see the reality in this picture and leave us alone to enjoy our honeymoon.” He wrote.

Reacting to the development on his official Twitter account, Bashir stated that coming out to state the facts is very important for the couple as it cleared the air about the circumstances surrounding their marriage. He then prayed for the couple to have a happy married life and a blissful union.
