Not everything you see online about s*x and reproductive health is true, complete or accurate… and honestly, that is a BIG problem especially for our young people.

We just wrapped up a 2-day training with social media influencers and content creators, we had the bestest🤗and most brilliant of them in the room. Most importantly, they were open minded and as passionate about the issues as we were.

From conversations about abstinence to understanding how unsafe abortion plays a big role in increasing maternal mortality and morbidity in Nigeria and how contraceptives are also a game changer, Dr Adewole, Mrs Alu and our Executive Director didn’t shy away from the real topics. Because the truth is, these conversations are directly linked to life long decisions for women and girls.

Our partners on the Lets talk project will be excited to hear that our social media influencers are armed with accurate information that will reach thousands of young people. More importantly, the audience these influencers will be reaching are certainly getting a better deal.

As we commemorate World Health Day today, we are grateful for the opportunity to continue providing last-mile adolescent-friendly health services in our rural, sub urban and peri urban communities. Few weeks back, with support from Ipas Nigeria, we Clocked it with 20 Patent and Proprietary Medicine Vendors (PPMVs). These are the ones we locally call Chemists!

We recognise their role in supplementing healthcare provision on our communities. We see them for the gaps that they help to close in various local governments, towns and villages. Residents acknowledge them as the first go-to point when they have health challenges. What was missing however was them being open to provide services in non-judgmental manner to adolescent girls and young people.

See the comment section for some feedback after the training.

Together with our Consultant Obstetrician Gynecologist from the Obafemi Awolowo Teaching Hospital, Ile-Ife, we queried their practices, methods and bias. We asked of their disposition to when a 17-year old undergraduate girl comes to them for contraceptive or when that Part 1 student comes to them to buy a condom. The Ministry of Health and Human Services in Ekiti State was also there to give a nod to this approach to ensuring no one is left behind.

Later today, as part of our efforts to Clock It in Iworoko, Oye and Ikere all in Ekiti, our Community Champions will be having community outreaches at LT1 Faculty of Arts Federal University Oye by 3pm, Achievers Villa Oye by 4pm, Idowu Taiwo and COE Business Administration Lecturer Room BOUESTI by 3pm.

Education is a right, not a privilege, yet for many married and pregnant girls in Northern Nigeria, the school gates are often shut prematurely.

This year, we celebrated Valentine's Day with students of Odundun High School, Ayedun. With 336 students and 8 teachers in attendance, we spoke with the students about the complex subject of love.

They blushed.🥰 We watched. 😘 They asked questions. We provided answers. We caught the curiosity on their faces. We also gathered insights from their questions. More importantly, we were able to address a number of myths and misconceptions about love. After all, love is in the air! 😍😍

The highlight for several of the students was also the cutting of the Valentine’s Cake, which our team made possible on relatively short notice. Thank you Yinka. Thank you Elizabeth. Thanks also to the staff and management of Odundun High School. �
