3 of 4 adolescent #girls in Africa never hear about #menstruation until they experience it, while 1 in 10 girls drops out of school due to #PeriodPoverty. But does menstruation have to be a nightmare?
Join us Wednesday on IG Live co-hosted by influencers @KalekyeMumo@folustorms
@nighealthwatch Call on the federal government to fix the 2023 Health Budget and prioritise #FamilyPlanning to save lives. Demand action for women's health and join the campaign https://t.co/Ehm8tbOFYr
Women's health is non-negotiable. https://t.co/Ehm8tbOFYr
All women and families should have access to a choice of affordable & safe contraceptives. Call on Nigerian lawmakers to #PlanForHer, and allocate urgent funding for #FamilyPlanning in the 2023 National Budget.
Join the call for the Nigerian Government to #PlanForHer --> https://t.co/Ehm8tc5J0r
Increase budget allocation for women's health in 2023.
@Fmohnigeria@nassnigeria increase funding for life-saving #familyplanning commodities including contraceptives for our women and girls
2023 National Budget: N20million allocation for #FamilyPlanning is grossly inadequate.
To this end, LISDEL & partners paid an advocacy visit to the Health Committees of NASS to discuss possible interventions for more realistic fiscal appropriations for the #healthsector in 2023.
We know that Nigeria's healthcare centres are under-equipped to provide access to modern contraceptives that meet the need of women, men, couples and families seeking access to safe FP commodities and antenatal medications.
So, we do what?
We #PlanForHer

Say it LOUD 📢📢
One cut is one too many.
We must break the culture of silence on #FGM to protect our girls.
Enough is enough. We need to #StopCut. RT if you agree!
#DYK: Nearly 1 in 5 Nigerian women between the ages of 15 and 49 are victims of Female Genital Mutilation according to @unicef & The National Bureau of Statistics.
#FGM is not a faraway problem. It’s happening right now from the North to the South.
#StopCut#EndFGM#WEMatter
Female genital mutilation ≠ religion.
Female genital mutilation ≠ culture
FGM is about power & freedom.
TODAY at 12pm WAT @aphroDIJA & @HACEYHealth discuss the lies we were told about FGM, break the myths, face the reality.
Join us there. #StopCut#EndFGM#WEMatter
