Gmajor:
Even with all the advances in birth control a married couple is still commiting abortion. Nawa oh

It baffles me.

Not less than 41 million abortions totalling 73 percent of all abortions in the world between 2010 and 2014, were obtained by married women, according to a new study by the Guttmacher Institute and the World Health Organisation.

The study, which found that between 2010–2014, a quarter of all pregnancies worldwide ended in abortion, said by marital status, the estimated abortion rate in 2010–2014 was 35 per 1,000 women – 36 per 1,000 for married women and 25 per 1,000 for unmarried women.

“Abortion incidence between 1990 and 2014: global, regional, and subregional levels and trends,” by Gilda Sedgh et al., noted that, although the overall number of abortions per 1,000 women of childbearing age (15–44 years old) in developed countries dropped from 46 to 27, in developing countries, it changed little, from 39 to 37.

The percentage of abortions dropped in developed regions from 39 percent in 1990–1994 to 28 percent in 2010–2014, while in developing countries, aborted pregnancies went from 21 percent to 24 percent over the same time span.

The study also found that although the global abortion rate declined slightly during the 25-year period studied, the absolute number of abortions per year increased as a result of population growth. Globally, the annual number of abortions grew by almost six million, from 50.4 million in 1990–1994 to 56.3 million in 2010–2014.

“These trends suggest that women and couples in the developed world have become more successful at avoiding unintended pregnancies—the cause of most abortions—over the last two decades,” noted Dr. Sedgh, lead author of the study and a principal research scientist at the Guttmacher Institute.

“High abortion rates are directly correlated to high levels of unmet contraceptive need. Our findings indicate that in many developing regions, women lack the contraceptive services they need and are unable to prevent pregnancies they do not want to have.

” When countries were grouped according to their abortion laws, the researchers found no significant difference in abortion rates for 2010–2014 between countries where abortion is legal and where it is restricted. In countries where the procedure was prohibited altogether or permitted only to save a woman’s life, the abortion rate was 37 per 1,000, and in countries where it was available on request, the abortion rate was 34 per 1,000.

It has been estimated that in developing regions, where abortion laws tend to be highly restrictive, some 6.9 million women were treated for complications from unsafe abortions in 2012, at a rate of 6.9 women treated per 1,000 women aged 15–44.

“Estimates for the proportion of abortions that are unsafe are under development, but it is likely that where access to safe abortion is limited, women may turn to clandestine procedures that are often unsafe. Making greater investments in quality family planning services would help reduce the rates of unintended pregnancy and therefore overall abortion rates,” says Bela Ganatra, a scientist with the World Health Organization’s Department of Reproductive Health and Research and a coauthor of the study.

“Ensuring that women and couples have access to a wide range of methods to choose from and receive comprehensive information about how to use their chosen method consistently and correctly is sound public health policy.

” While emphasizing the importance of efforts to ensure universal access to quality family planning services, the researchers also noted that their findings provide further evidence that even if all women and couples who wish to avoid pregnancy had universal access to contraception, unintended pregnancies and abortions would still occur.

Women may become pregnant as a result of sexual violence, contraceptive methods may fail, and women who initially wish to have a child may experience a change of circumstances after they become pregnant. Therefore, access to safe abortion is essential so that women who need abortion care don’t have to resort to unsafe procedures.

Responding to the recent comments by David Cameron, Cobus de Swardt, Managing Director of Transparency International said.


What an epic answer to a careless and irresponsible coment , by a man who happens to be a grand child of those who have been aiding and abating corruption for ages.
There are still sensible and honest people in this world, after all.

For the man who stand a good chance of defeating APC in 2019 abi? You better extend your search light to KOWA party and APGA.
Though the promised change by the APC is not
coming quickly as expected by the masses, I am very hopeful it will eventually come. PDP , is definitely out of our options for now . Thank you.

Good Day all.
Please I need your opinion on this issue of masturbation. I want to know why married couples will engage in masturbation.
If a man who admire and fall in love with the opposite sex , is call straight. Man to man is call gay. Woman to woman is call lesbian. What do we call self to self. ?

Nawa oo! Una no know say shuddrens dey here?

That is call background check. It's a normal thing to do.

Where is the unclad picture?

Eniola Akinkuotu, Abuja

A former Senior Special Assistant on Public Affairs to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, Dr. Doyin Okupe, has revealed that his office was funded monthly by the embattled former National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki (retd.).

Okupe, who served under Jonathan from 2012 to 2015, said this on his official Twitter handle.



He, however, said he had nothing to do with the arms scam which cost the country over $15bn in stolen funds.

Okupe said, “I was not paid arms deal money. The NSA paid for the running of my office monthly from August 2012. Dasukigate was in 2014. I did not take part in the campaign.”

The former spokesman for Jonathan, however, received bashing from several of his followers online who wondered why his office should get security votes.

A Twitter use, Ojezs, asked, “You’re just implicating yourself. Is it the NSA office that employed you?”

Another user, Ayoola Ayodeji, wrote, “You probably mistake some of us for hungry people. A day will come when you won’t be able to sleep because poor people are outside your gate.”

In his response, Okupe wrote, “You guys are idiotic. You wait and pray for the innocent to be punished. It will not happen. You must think some of us are terrified.”

It had been reported in January that Okupe got at least N1.6bn off Dasuki in three shady cyber security contracts.

One of the contracts had instructions to hunt down unfriendly media websites with Distributed Denial of Service attacks.

It was believed to be a project conceived to shut down online media platforms perceived as friendly towards Muhammadu Buhari, the then presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress ahead of the 2015 election.

The other contract was to intercept all optic fibre cables landing in Nigeria. The third was a passive mass and target GSM interception that had the ability to decrypt ciphers and operate undetected.

The contracts that were allegedly awarded Okupe’s cronies, reinforces claims that the former NSA merely doled out cash and contracts to cronies and political associates and violated procurement regulations in the process.

This telemundo issue is getting out hand. Imagine a woman accusing her husband of not being romantic, just because of telemundo.

Unfortunately, both the young and old are involved in this telemundo craze.

I hope he will be able to take good care of them.

Kidnapping is evil , quite frankly. But embezzling public funds is evil of the same proportion. So if a kidnapper is condemned to die by hanging there is nothing wrong if all this polithiefcians face the same fate.

Today Senate, we passed the 2nd Reading of A Bill to establish a National Agricultural Credit Fund.

Looking for another way of siphoning public funds. At the end of the day , it will be to the benefits of the corrupt elite. If this bill scale through, you will see them setting up farms allover the place.
