“There is an issue that is of concern to us; I came across young girls who said they are using contraceptives so that they do not experience their menstrual cycle because it is expensive to buy sanitary wear.”
The firebrand politician has been lobbying government to provide free sanitary wear to women and young girls countrywide.
She said while there was no clarity on government`s part on the issuance of contraceptives to underage girls there was a need for a look into the issue as some girls are indulging in sex.
“There is no clarity on at what point should we issue contraceptives to young girls. I think if a child is already sexually active it is ridiculous not to give them contraceptives,” she opined.
“If someone knows they are having sex the best way is to give them contraceptives.”
The issue of giving girls contraceptives has divided opinion with some parents insisting that school going children should not be given contraceptives while others are in support of the initiative.

Why don’t they lobby to have reusable sanitary wear made? there is water and soap to wash it? and it could save them money in the long run as well?
