“Since the Maputo Protocol, that clearly prohibits marriage under the age of 18, was adopted, many of the countries studied have engaged in law reforms. Some of them, such as Côte d’Ivoire, Democratic Republic of Congo, Egypt, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique and The Gambia have an absolute ban on marriage under the age of 18. Despite the legal ban, child marriage is still prevalent in some of these countries and more needs to be done to sensitise communities on the law and the dangers of child marriage; and to address the root causes of child marriage” (9).
