Many times in African societies the young mother decides to terminate the pregnancy as it will reduce the stigma that will come with single motherhood which is frowned upon. Sometimes when the partner is not willing to take up the responsibility, the young mother prevents the problem of facing the shame alone. #unintendedpregnancyoptions #loudwhispers

Working around the issues of Female Genital Mutila

Working around the issues of Female Genital Mutilation can be complex. The landmines are real because you will be in direct confrontation with age-defying tradition and culture. How do you get this right? What are the expressions to avoid? What's the best way to put your content together without doing any harm?

Join us on the 30th of September as @solafagro shares with us from years of programming around FGM in Nigeria courtesy of the @gmcendfgm and @unfpa

The realities of unsafe abortion across Nigeria is

The realities of unsafe abortion across Nigeria is frightening. On days like this, the conversation around choice comes to the table again - to be or not to be. To have access or not to have access.🤷🤷

Abstinence should be taught, contraception information should be provided. No girl or woman however deserves to die because of their choice around an unintended pregnancy.

According to a case study in Nigeria, the cost of providing contraceptive services to enable women avoid unintended pregnancies that end in an unsafe abortion would only be one quarter of what Nigerian health facilities spend to provide post abortion care.

By 2002 in South Africa, six years after liberalizing its abortion law, deaths due to unsafe abortion dropped by at least 50% and the number and severity of post abortion complications fell dramatically as well.

For every unsafe practice, there are safer options. You can chose to keep an unintended pregnancy and raise the child.

You can put the baby up for adoption, place the baby with a family member to raise, become a single parent or co-parent with the baby’s father.For further information and counselling, you can reach us on 09027770177.

Our interaction with obstetricians and gynecologis

Our interaction with obstetricians and gynecologist has also given us first hand information as realities of unsafe methods of terminating pregnancy women often go through. Bicycle spokes, grounded bottles, handles, scissors and other dangerous instruments are still been used by quacks parading themselves as doctors.

There are real life happenings of girls in boarding houses or tertiary institutions who become pregnant and do not have access to non-judgmental services; many of these girls resort to dangerous methods to end the pregnancy while some of them are lucky to get help for abortion-related complications others are overtaken by death.

Can you put yourself in this situation for a minute: if your husband who you just got married to impregnates your younger sister who came to live with you. What will you do to your younger sister’s pregnancy? End the pregnancy, allow your sister make a choice, put up the baby up for adoption or raise the baby in the family.

Here is another life scenario: If you are a widow with three children a boy and a two girls who are all less than 19years, you are the only one who takes care of these children so you have to work up to 3 jobs so you’re rarely at home. One day you come home to realize your daughters are pregnant for their brother what do you do? End the pregnancy, allow your children make a choice, put up the baby up for adoption or raise the baby in the family. #loudwhispers #unsafeabortion

Research has shown that abortion incidence was highest among women in their 20s, women with secondary education or higher, and women living in urban areas. Also, women living rural areas, women with no education, and women who are poor were the most likely to have the least safe abortions. #loudwhispers #unsafeabortion
