Image result for teenage pregnancy

A group, The Excellence Community Education Welfare Scheme, has expressed worry over the rising incidence of teenage pregnancy in Akwa Ibom, describing it as disturbing.

The Chief Executive Officer of the group, Mr. Andy Eyo, said recent....
Nigeria Demographic and Health Survey had put the rate of child pregnancy in the state at 17 per cent.

Eyo told Southern City News it was unimaginable that there were still young ladies in the state having sex without condoms.

He described the figure as quite high, noting that the development indicated that schoolchildren in the state indulged in sex as a form of recreation.

Share your thoughts....thanks!
