The most populous nation on the African continent also recorded 735,000 unsafe abortion in the year under review.

Nigeria has recorded over 1.3 million unwanted pregnancies in 2018 alone, the 2018 global family planning report has revealed.

The most populous nation on the African continent also recorded 735,000 unsafe abortion in the year under review.

According to the report mailed to TheCable, and unveiled at the ongoing International Conference on Family Planning (ICFP) in Kigali, only 13.8 percent of Nigerian women use contraceptives in 2018.

The report defines unintended pregnancies as “the number of pregnancies that occurred at a time when women (and their partners) either did not want additional children or wanted to delay the next birth”.

This is “usually measured with regard to last or recent pregnancies, including current pregnancies”.

One can just imagine the frequency of coitus going on in Nigeria most esp.in the core north with its attendant complications of unwanted pregnancies, STIs/UTI, moral depravity, mental disorders, stigmatization, economic burden, high maternal-child mortality rate. undecided

This is the only thing that has increased under the Buhari-led government in the past 4 years.

Sarrki, Madridguy, and that manna-suya guy will be taking their reduced NBC salary frustration on innocent Nigerian girls.

Believe this at your own peril. Statistics are deduced from mere assumptions in Nigeria, who did they employ that did the forecasting. Did they visit quack "chemists" in villages and cities that specialise in this illegal business of abortion?

Oh please. I am certain the figures are more than speculated.
