<p>A Nigerian graduate, Umuir Adatullah has spoken out to address the widespread misconceptions surrounding her age after her <a target="_blank" href="http://gistreel.com/tag/wedding"><strong>wedding photos</strong></a> went viral.</p>
<p>The pictures, which sparked reactions online, led to speculation that she was either a minor <strong>forced into marriage</strong> or used as collateral.</p>
<p>However, in a recent clarification, Adatullah firmly dismissed these claims, stating that her petite stature was the only cause of the misunderstanding.</p>
<p>To back up her statement, a photo from her convocation at Lagos State University (LASU) posted on her <a target="_blank" href="http://gistreel.com/tag/tiktok"><strong>TikTok</strong></a> account @umuiradatullah2, confirmed that she graduated in 2023.</p>

<p>In her words:</p>
<p><em>“This is a clarity video about my wedding picture. Some people assumed I am underage and not up to 18 years. According to Nigeria’s constitution, 18 years is an adult, and I’m not 18, 20, or even 25. I am a graduate, and my stature shouldn’t be a barrier to achieving my goals. I am not underage. I was not used as collateral or loan because some people commented like that.”</em></p>
<p>Her response has since drawn support from many who applauded her for confidently addressing the situation and shutting down false narratives.</p>
