Anambra State Has Banned The Sale Of Condoms! It is now illegal to encourage the use of condoms in southeast Nigeria's Anambra State. The state government has also banned the advocacy and distribution of other forms of contraceptives including IUDs (intrauterine device) and any other "un-natural" birth control. http://www.irinnews.org/Report.aspx?ReportId=77644 |

First a lady senator from Cross River who had nothing to offer in terms of legislative contributions after being rigged in as a senator, decided to become a fashion police by trying to legislate what our ladies can wear or not to wear. Now here comes another one, they are banning the condoms sale. Whose brilliant idea was that? May be it's the usual Nigeria rumour, though nothing is impossible when it comes to Nigeria. As when you think you have heard the worst, they will hit you for six. Condom police, that's all Nigerian needs now!! Have they ban sex too? |

the catholic in me says yay, but the sociologist in me says WHAT? THIS IS NOT THE WAY. Parents need to raise their children. Yes the government should protect the citizens, but we've passed this stage already o. |

this is abject stupidity Is this what Obi fought PDP to achieve? To legislate what people can do or not do in bed? Instead of dealing with kids dying from childhood diseases and maternal deaths, its people 'enjoying sex' that is their problem. That woman should be SACKED. |

Re: Anambra State Has Banned The Sale Of Contraceptives! by Cadet(f): 4:01am On Apr 08, 2008 |
Why is Nigeria moving backwards? This is like in South Africa, where the president did not believe HIV/AIDS is transmitted sexually. In Nigeria!! Just imagine, a country where more than 90% of it's men acts like sexually deprived dogs. HIV/AIDS epidemics rises! Rate of abortion rises! No family planning! Just Imagine! In Nigeria, the impossibility will be made possible! Why is Nigeria moving backwards? |
Re: Anambra State Has Banned The Sale Of Contraceptives! by Seun(m): 4:32am On Apr 08, 2008 |
Anambra state is poised to become the HIV capital of Nigeria and the poverty capital of Africa. |
Re: Anambra State Has Banned The Sale Of Contraceptives! by 4Play(m): 4:41am On Apr 08, 2008 |
D-reloaded: Just when the article mentioned Evangelicals,someone had to blame Catholics: The population of Anambra State are not known for habouring particularly fundamentalist beliefs but the ban may have been designed to appeal to local evangelical groups. I'm not sure its within the state's legal remit to prohibit condoms. |
Re: Anambra State Has Banned The Sale Of Contraceptives! by Nobody: 4:43am On Apr 08, 2008 |
@ Seun I agree with you 110% Imagine a state without contraceptives and birth control pills The Government had better re-think this else it will cause a disaster! |
Re: Anambra State Has Banned The Sale Of Contraceptives! by JayFK(m): 4:56am On Apr 08, 2008 |

Re: Anambra State Has Banned The Sale Of Contraceptives! by bawomolo(m): 5:03am On Apr 08, 2008 |

Re: Anambra State Has Banned The Sale Of Contraceptives! by JayFK(m): 5:08am On Apr 08, 2008 |
bawomolo: Lets face it though Nigerians in the south will be all for it lol. I bet the governor and Anambra state indigenes would do jackshit about it too, no protest nothing. Good luck to them getting AIDS, syphillis and all. |
Re: Anambra State Has Banned The Sale Of Contraceptives! by Dreloaded(f): 5:23am On Apr 08, 2008 |
wel 4Play such a stance is more popular with Catholics since they think it's normal to have 14 children |
Re: Anambra State Has Banned The Sale Of Contraceptives! by 4Play(m): 5:38am On Apr 08, 2008 |
D-reloaded: Is the Catholic birth rate any higher than that of M'uslims or Evangelicals? |
Re: Anambra State Has Banned The Sale Of Contraceptives! by Dreloaded(f): 5:44am On Apr 08, 2008 |
Yes |
Re: Anambra State Has Banned The Sale Of Contraceptives! by coolier(f): 5:52am On Apr 08, 2008 |
I would advice the government of Anambra State to stop wasting tax payer's time and money on petty, idiotic and propagandistic projects like banning the use of condoms! What? Someone should please tell this joker governor to embark on cardinal programmes that would benefit the masses. Am sure there's loads of them. |
Re: Anambra State Has Banned The Sale Of Contraceptives! by Lady2(f): 5:57am On Apr 08, 2008 |
wel 4Play such a stance is more popular with Catholics since they think it's normal to have 14 children however, the article mentioned EVANGELICALS. |
Re: Anambra State Has Banned The Sale Of Contraceptives! by 4Play(m): 6:00am On Apr 08, 2008 |
D-reloaded: The lowest birth rates in the western world is to be found in places like Italy,Spain and Portugal,so keep quiet. I suppose you are referencing Latinos but their relatively higher birth rates cuts across denominations and is normal for people coming from such developing countries.Theirs' is much lower than that of Nigerian immigrants in the US. |
Re: Anambra State Has Banned The Sale Of Contraceptives! by Rebellious(f): 6:35am On Apr 08, 2008 |
I am completely shocked! This just doesn't make any sense! Why would a state in a country reputed for being one of the top ten HIV/AIDS populated countries ban condoms? Sure, I understand where she is coming from: Take away the condoms-->people are scared of catching a disease-->people stop having random sex and wait till marriage. Unfortunately, it will never happen this way, in fact, you have a higher chance moving a mountain than thinking you can accomplish this. You cannot stop people from having sex by taking away the condoms. It only makes them want to experiment more and this time, if they catch something, they have an excuse. Remember, before condoms were invented, the so-called children having sex and having babies everywhere. Taking away the condoms will only lead to a higher level of HIV/AIDS and other STDs, abortions and unwanted pregnancies which, if I'm not mistaken, is the very thing we are trying to run away from. Why is it that every time we talk one step forward, some pea-sized brain senator will try with all his/her might to pull us back to where we started from? Must we always be made to go round in circles numerous times before we achieve one goal? |
