Nigeria is the nation with the highest number of hypocrites on planet earth All the men here are self-righteously indignant over the fact of underage sexual activity but they're the same people having sex with these children Same way Nigeria has got the highest number of religious establishments on earth but the entire country is literally hell on earth...every other street has either a church or a mosque (mostly the former) where desperate and ignorant people are getting swindled out of their life savings by the hour ![]() |

JONSYN7154:Take all your sisters to go put the implant. A secondary school pupil age now ranges from 11-17 , when you have your daughters and age of 11 to 17, take them to the hospital to fix the implant. |

Kobojunkie:You failed to understand that, many of the touts/Agbéró we see today grew up as over pampered children. Whenever someone tried to correct or discipline them, their parents fought back instead of allowing them to learn respect and boundaries. Now, as adults, those same children have become a threat, even to their own families. You will hardly see well trained and disciplined child grow up to misbehave recklessly. |

Kobojunkie:One major reason many marriages of 2 years and above remain without children is the use of contraceptive implants. Many young ladies see it only as a protection against unwanted pregnancy, forgetting its possible implications on a fresh womb. I speak from what I know, two of my friends who wedded over 2 years ago are still trusting God for the fruit of the womb. May God help us |

Did the writer of this article say marriage helps to curb immoral behavior? The married men and women who still seek sexcapades outside their matrimonial homes, how has marriage helped to curb their immoral behavior? It's like this writer is a novice. I was shocked when females on Facebook wrote and supported family planning contraceptives for their daughters once they hit 14. Hmmm... na that day I know say the effect of keeping up with the Kardashians has eaten deep into our society. Mothers and would-be mothers are only bothered about their daughters not getting pregnant, so they insert a contraceptive implant, and they don't bother about HIV. This article didn't even bother to indicate that the girls were asked who took them for the contraceptive implant. They couldn't have gone on their own to have it implanted without their mothers ' |

This is the first time I’m hearing about this and honestly, it’s disturbing. To me, it shows that many parents are no longer available to properly monitor and guide their kids. What shocked me even more is that some people are supporting the idea, forgetting that contraceptive implants do not prevent STDs. Once teenagers know they are “protected” from pregnancy, it gives them the confidence to freely experiment with sex, often with multiple partners. But what happens when a child has already built up numerous sexual experiences as a teenager? By the time such a person grows into adulthood and wants to settle down, issues like sexual incompatibility, infidelity and broken marriages will likely follow. Yes, I understand we live in a busy world and a highly sexualized society and parents fear teenage pregnancy. But to focus only on pregnancy while ignoring the danger of STDs is very troubling. Some of these teenagers may even lose their lives in reckless sexual encounters. The truth is, parents have a major role to play. They must: *Start proper sex education early (for both boys and girls). * Teach morals and values consistently. * Know who their children’s friends are and the kind of influences around them. Of course, no parent can follow a child everywhere. But at least, let parents play their role first. Contraceptive implants will not solve the deeper issues;strong parental guidance, values and discipline will. |

erico2k2:I don't really think it's a backward reasoning as you said.The guy has some point there. Let's look at it objectively. If a man sleeps with this secondary school girls we are talking about here which are around 14,15,16 years old,say with the consent of their parents. Then the matter, through one way to the other gets to the government/law court,what do you think will be the fate of the man? Will the LAW says because the under age girl willingly submitted to the love affairs or and that her parents even consented to it that the man is not liable for any sentencing? The crux of the matter here is the age of consent. So, for the medical personnel and the parents who are adults that knows the position of the law on that to have aided and abeted the crime (yes, encouraging a minor to have sex is a crime), they are liable to prosecution. So the guy was,to some extent, right. |

The Millennials (Which I belong to) often use your phrase "Our parents were too harsh on us", so they try to be "soft" or "sophisticated" We want to be friends with our children, forgetting that to lead humans, they must have a bit of "fear" of you in them to listen to you and to act right. Are you trying to say things were as bad as it's now, or what exactly are you saying? Was Nigeria this morally corrupt 20 years ago? It's for you to answer 'Yes' or 'No', but if it's a 'No', compare both eras using evidence. Gerrard59: |

Procashtips:I maintain my stance that there's nothing happening now that didn't happen before. The ubiquity of cameras and platforms at the click of the finger made it seem such things happen recently. As for morality, IBB who glamourised corruption isn't a Millennials or Gen-Z. Ex House of Representatives members were once yahoo yahoo boys. A hook up babe won an election in Ebonyi. Nothing new. |

This is very funny considering that Nigeria is the most populous country in Africa... How come STDs didn't stop you from becoming the giants of Africa? ![]() ceeceeuwa: |

pocohantas:They go with their mothers' to public places like banks without bra and dressed indecently. They increase their age to open accounts so that they can receive payment for services offered. They can' neither read nor fill forms correctly. If you go to Iyama in Benin you see less than 18 on the streets hustling for clients at night. I cried the first day I saw it. I'm told their family puts the financial burden on them and they're groomed for Spain, Italy and Germany after secondary school.....you ask what they do for a living when perfecting their forms and you're told hook up with no shame or remorse. |
| Re: Contraceptive Implant: A Growing Moral Challenge Among Secondary School Girls by pocohantas(f): 1:43pm On Aug 22, 2025 |
Esthered:Yes, I have written on this many times as it is a pattern I have noticed for both the boy and girl child. There was an exposé of how some boys are groomed for sex in low income areas. One hotel owner was arrested months back and his victims were poor SS1-3 boys. He lures them with stipends, bartender jobs and promise of WAEC payment. Nne leave o, poverty is a bad thing. Poverty would make a parent reduce his/her hold on the child. How do you effectively control a child you are not providing for? I pray these kids find their way back to the right path. Amen... |

latiephwald:You folks tell really bad lies no thanks to your numerous traditions and religion. ![]() Agbero culture goes as far back as the 1960s in Nigeria and many of those who turned age eros even then were some of the most over disciplined --- flogged mercilessly --- students in schools and homes. 🥱🥱🥱 |

I'm shocked at your thinking and what's even worse is you want to drag this very smart girl down to your level of thinking. You want her not to have the Contraception so she can fall pregnant abi? I'm proud of our millennial children, they don't think like you, and they are actively taking charge of their future |

latiephwald:Stop telling lies for Pete's sake! 🥱🥱🥱🥱 Gosh, you people are so chuck full of misinformation that one does not even know a lot of times what the intention really is. To win arguments for the sake of it or to deceive for the sake of maintaining status quo? 😩😩😩😩 |
