What the article DOESN’T say is that last year the local government had to take the couples two elder children under their wing for exactly the same reason, whilst leaving their two younger children ( six in total in 12 years ) at the family home to be “looked after” by their parents. Their education, health costs, benefits, rent etc, is being subsidised by the tax payer.
12years and 14 years old ,parents beat them both,sending them both back to Guinea for marriage AND A LIFE of what. They are CHILDREN but it’s OK out of site,out of mind!!
