So you guys think such babies are meant to be kept? Don't you know that the boko haram babies will be a reminder of the gruesome experience to the girls who were kidnapped? Do you think they can ever love them?

You guys don't know anything. I go with the UN on that. I think it's better for them to abort the babies and start a new life. If there's anytime to abort a child, it's in a case like that. God forbid, but would you advise your own sister or wife to keep a rape baby or a boko haram baby? Please, the UN has given wise counsel, it's not about taboo or tradition right now... it's about doing what's effective.

Dont mind those detached and inexperienced people. Delivery and adoption will not severe mother - child bond. The babies will not know love from mother or adapting parents and are better not born.

Women will be saved through childbearing–if they continue in faith, love and holiness with propriety

You don't have a clue do you? Where was faith when their hynies were being torn by the crazy sons of perdition who were probably high on adrenaline and other substances? How many people adopt kids in Nigeria with all the stigmatization and derision? Please, the UNFPA's plan is sound abeg; give these girls a chance to live their lives completely detached from all reminders of the dark days spent under Boko Haram. This is why I believe gay marriage should be allowed & gay couples encouraged to adopt unwanted babies.

You know that if we abort rape pregnancies, 90% of northern babies would be aborted.

Yea, that's exactly how I feel. Each of them should be asked what they want to do with the pregnancy, I'm sure they all won't want the same thing.

BAng on point. The ultimate choice should be for the girls to mAke and we should respect it, be it abortion or keeping the baby.

Nothing should prevail over the wishes of the girls. All necessary forms of medical support ought to be given to them to be able to mAke an informed choice.

We should try and be rational with our decisions.Those children just like every one of us deserve a right to live. They didnt ask to be brought to this world in such circumstances. Three years from now, some of those babies would be so adorable we would be glad we didnt abort them. Their mothers should be convinced to give them up for abduction. They are govts responsibility now. If they had acted on time, with a human face this mess wouldnt have happened. Those children deserve to live.

Why are those in support of keeping the pregnancies mostly men?
Says a lot.
Only two situations in which I would never discourage abortion - where the woman was raped and where the child would be born with a serious health defect.

The girls in question probably don't even know who the fathers are.They should be allowed to choose what they feel is best for them and quickly too.

Let's be sincere here pls,even without people knowing the kids are those terrorists',what is the attitude of Nigerians towards adoption? Absymal to say the least. Now add the fact that their mothers were raped to pregnancy by terrorists. It doesnt look good sir. I'm very much against abortions,but in this case,i am in support. Abortion pls.

Then the woman should be given the right to decide even if she wants to keep or abort. We cant keep using religion/culture to justify forcing women into living lives of misery.

To abort or not to abort.

Before I comment....I am opposed to abortion except for rape or where it threatens the life of the mother....so,in this case...I could tentatively support abortion.

But that leads us to the next question.

Where would the girls do the abortion.?

We do not have enough specialst doctors and nurses who are qualified to do abortions. (In the US ...it is the gynaecologist and specially trained nurses who do abortions.In Nigeria...how many gyane do we have?).

And it must be pointed out that many of those girls are probably in second and third trimester. Not backed by evidence...but if you must do an abortion....the best time is in the first 12 weeks of the pregnancy. Anything later...call O and G...because it is going to be risky and you need a specialist.

In my opinion, the best thing for the ladies is to have their babies.....because right now we do not have the people and the facilities to conduct good and safe abortions....especially second and thrid trimester abortions.I know it won't make things better. Many of the girls are going to become pariahs in their community. Which is why we need good governance......and that is why Nigerians need to stop tolerating exploitative leaders.

Yet we have people buying babies and bay factories all over, Listen miss, I don't know about you but when I tell a woman she can't have kids, she normally gives me a sad look, I'll then say why not consider adoption. Now these kids were fathered by terrorists, but does that make them any less of what they are, kids! I think ultimately the mothers should decide whatever they want to do with their kids.
Re: United Nations Population Funds (UNFPA) Suggests Abortion For Boko Haram Babies by Nobody: 11:38am On May 19, 2015
They should be allowed to make their own choices, if they want to have and keep it/ give it up for adoption or abort it, it is their decision because we can not understand what they went through, i just hope the government rehabilitate them so they can atleast be okay. They will never be the same again.

LMAOOOOOOO, most not all. There are some Christian terrorists too. That's not the point of this discuss anyway. The point is if those foetuses got bad genes in them, even if they are monks and nuns it will show up one day. Best to abort and save the world propagation of those easily brainwashed genes.

Tenks wink wink wink
i disagree with you a million times...
They are innocent pls!!! They shouldn't teach them what their brainwashed fathers where thought... case close

When I tell you now that the same America that controls UN policy is behind the Boko Haram genocide and mass murder, then perhaps this story would make more sense.

The abortions wouldn't be the only genocide, you can count on them making the women infertile also. Depopulation of Africa is a a known goal of America's planners.
Chigold101:
Wont they be tried for genocide? What is difference between killing those babies and the bombing boko haram are carrying out?

They should rehabilitate the women or girls, give them proper health care and train their children when they are given birth to by allowing them to be adopted.

Ofcos,i have an idea how SAD that can be,i have family friends who have been married even before i was born with no kids,while i even already have one of my own. Maybe you didnt get me clearly,Nigerians,most Nigerians would never wanna adopt,they'll rather lie about being pregnant,travel and patronise those baby factories you talked about. If adoptions were really being practised and supported,baby factories would be out of businesses. It doesnt matter to me if those kids have terrorists as fathers as you said,but in this part of the world,it matters to most people and it will be used against them at every turn. This is sad but it is the truth. But i agree with you,it all comes down to the women's choice. It is still their pregnancy
