Jubilation In Abuja As the Supreme Court of Nigeria
pronounced a very controversial ruling this morning,
declaring that all women with clitorises longer than
7,5 centimetres (3 inches) can now be legally
considered as men.
In a unanimous decision, the five-member Supreme
Court panel, led by Mary Odili ruled that 36-year old
Isioma Adeyemi’s request was “perfectly sound and
legitimate”, ordering that her legal status be
changed immediately.
Ms. Adeyemi celebrated her victory which puts an
end to a 7-year legal battle for the woman with an
exceptionally large clitoris.
In a statement released by her, she said
This is the greatest day
of my life! My first husband repudiated me because
my clitoris was bigger than his peen, now I finally
get some kind of justice.”
According to governmental experts, over 600 other
Nigerian women have sufficiently big clitorises to
apply for a change to their legal status. Nigeria is
only the second country in the world to offer women
with large clitorises the option of being legally
considered as men
