Government says there is need for Malawians to know more about the Marriage, Divorce, Family Relations Act so that early marriages should be reduced in the country.
Principal Secretary in the ministry of gender, children and social welfare Mary Shawa said since the Marriage, Divorce and Family Relations Act was passed, the country has saved the lives of young people who married early.
Shawa said over 600 young people including boys have been moved out of marriages and sent back to school.
“Due to this act we have managed to move 600 girls out of marriages to school and some of the youth were boys who married early,” said Shawa.
She added that government is making strides to make sure that people are able to understand the legislation so that early marriages are dealt with once and for all.
Shawa also said that government will continue making sure that Members of Parliament as well as chiefs are involved in order to ensure that girls do not marry early but stay in school.
This follows the commemoration in October of the International Day of the Girl Child which falls on 11 October every year.
The Day of the Girl Child was set aside by the United Nations and this year’s theme was ‘Girls Progress is Equal to Goals Progress’.

What we have seen &heard here it doesn’t make sense at all, instead of bringing some agricultural stuff & urging people to work hard in their farms you speak no sense, Okay there was more billions of kwachas given by America, & even world bank last week ago, but you’ll end up sharing together with your president never buy any food for the poor people of Malawi,in the villages, So, uthink who can hear you????
Hello friends my name is Musaba Nakushowa I was one of those millions of people around the world suffering from HIV/AIDS and and i was healed through the help of DR Abumen I was diagnosed with HIV/AIDS in 2010, I had no hope and felt useless. All these negative feelings quickly suppressed my body immune system and my body started to deteriorate quickly with physical signs of rapid weight loss, my story began to change for good when i met DR Abumen through a woman’s testimony, he sent me an herbal medicine which i took for some days, after taking the medicine according to doctor’s instruction I went to the hospital to get my blood tested for HIV/AIDS. The doctors were amazed when my first blood test result came back negative. They asked me to go back again for another test, which I did and the result came back negative. The doctors could not believe still,To cut the story short, “DR ABUMEN HERBAL MEDICINE HEALED ME COMPLETELY WITHOUT A TRACE OF THE DEADLY HIV/AIDS VIRUS IN MY BLOOD” am so happy, am sharing this to the world to save some lives, believe me there is a cure, you can contact DR Abumen on his email address doctorabumen@gmail.com and you can also call or whatsapp his number which is via +2347085071418.

Gvt shall never curb early marriages unless u should ceace coruption and start listening to peoples’problems.The raise up of school fees,hungry students and children at various schools across the country.How can they go further more with education? As a result of hunger they opt to married than die of hunger.What i see is only poor governance and gratonious leaders.School fees must fall and free primary education u will a change ok.
