A 20-year-old Nigerian man has told his 17-year-old wife that their eight-month marriage is over.
Due to their ages, social media went crazy when the young couple got married a few months ago.
The Mbaise man from Imo state posted a video of his traditional wedding on TikTok and said that it is better to be single than to be married to his estranged wife.
"It is better to be single than to be with someone like her. So that is why I came out to let everyone know we are no longer together. Thanks for the advice,'' he wrote on the clip.
He described his wedding day as the saddest day of his life.
"I thought my wedding day is going to be the happiest day of my life. It turned out to be the saddest day of my life."
In another clip, he explained that he tried dialoguing with his ex-wife severally, but she wouldn't listen.
"Marrying a 17-year-old girl is the worst mistake I ever made. I wish her best of luck," he wrote on the clip.
