1. Abortion is about allowing woman the right to make choices about when they want to have children in relation to their age, financial stability & relationship stability. It is the not the place of government to legislate against woman’s choices.
2. Raising a child is not an easy task & requires social & emotional commitment coupled with financial resources. As such if a person feels they are not ready for a child, it means the pregnancy is unwanted & resultant allowing a fetus to grow into a child is worse than abortion since the resultant child will grow in a non conducive & destructive environment without the love, care & stability that a child needs.
3. The argument against abortion is a moral argument which is subject to personal interpretation so should not be legislated against. Those see it morally allowable to do abortion should be provided with the means to do so & those who don’t believe in abortion should have the choice not to have an abortion
4. A fetus is not legally or scientifically a person or human being so abortion cannot be equated to murder or taking a life since the fetus is not a person nor alive.
5. A fetus is like a brain dead person with no self awareness or consciousness so it is actually dead.
6. Prohibiting abortions doesn’t stop abortions, women would simply seek abortions via illegal means which are unsafe & illegal, so it is better to provide woman with safe & legal ways to do an abortion.
7. Abortion prevent unwanted & unplanned pregnancies which prevents child neglect since the mother does not want to have children at that moment in time.
8. Making abortion illegal is also a class struggle since the rich can always go to other places where it is legal & have an abortion whilst the poor cannot do this, but have to resort to unsafe abortions which can lead to their death.
9. Making abortion illegal is more or less compulsory pregnancy which contradicts the quest & fight for freedom.
10. Making abortion illegal will increase teenage pregnancy (children having children). This usually leads to illegal abortions which can lead to death or permanent health defects, poverty, joblessness, hopelessness, and dependency.
11. A woman’s right to choose abortion is a “fundamental right”
12. Personhood begins at birth, not at conception. Abortion is the termination of a pregnancy (fetus), not a baby. Personhood at conception is not a proven biological fact. Fetuses are incapable of feeling pain when an abortion is performed.
13. Access to legal, professionally-performed abortions reduces injury and death caused by unsafe, illegal abortions.
14. The anti-abortion position is usually based on religious beliefs and threatens the vital separation of church and state. Religious ideology should not be a foundation for law.
15. Modern abortion procedures are safe. The risk of a woman”s death from abortion is less than one in 100,000, whereas the risk of a woman dying from giving birth is 13.3 deaths per 100,000 pregnancies.
16. Access to abortion is necessary because contraceptives are not always readily available. Women need a doctor’s prescription to obtain many birth control methods, such as the pill, the patch, the shot, and the diaphragm.
17. Abortion gives couples the option to choose not to bring babies with severe and life-threatening medical conditions to full term.
18. Many women who choose abortion don’t have the financial resources to support a child and ...read more at

People forget that you cannot ban abortions, you can only increase the rate of unsafe abortions

1. Abortion is murder
2.Abortion is not contraceptive

Why not have the child and give he or she up for adoption. There are so many homes without kids.

1) Abortion is not murder. If it were so, Women who miscarriages should be tried for manslaughter.

2) Orphanages receive little to zero funding in Nigeria. They are forced to resort to begging for offerings in school; they collect used clothes for kids to wear and to make it worse, adoption is looked down on by africans as a "wrong" thing. As a matter of fact, have YOU personally ever taken the time to visit an orphanage and play with the kids there When have you ever gave a damn about them unless reminded by a collectors plate or something like that

As someone above me has rightly said, you cannot ban abortions, you can only increase the rate of unsafe ones.
For as low as 9,500 naira, you can remove 3 year old fetuses from your womb in deplorable conditions by unsafe doctors. Of course, some females die or have their ovaries damaged sometimes in the hands of these quacks.


Nigeria is ensteeped with hypocrisy; a nation which slaps sex on newspapers, movies and novels yet somehow expect its residents to stay abstinent

Like that works.
