‘Girls need help’
Stakeholders have suggested ways to attain a clean and safe menstrual experience for women and girls in the country.
They spoke on May 28 during an international webinar in commemoration of the annual World Menstrual Hygiene Day which falls on that date. Its Executive Director/Founder Nkechika Ibe said the event was “a call to action towards demystifying the myths, taboos, stigma and breaking the barriers of information that undermine the general wellbeing of women and girls before, during and after their periods.”
“These girls do not have access to sanitary towels, as some use pieces of rags/cloths and tissue paper while some do not use anything at all but let it flow,” Ndubuisi added.
