Oya my people, run come, abeg run waka fast, make you no miss this one o… oya sidon, so that you go fit farabale, calm down, read this important palava wey dey ground… no do mistake ignore this one o…
According to the info wey dem gather full ground, dem talk say millions of Nigeria women wey dey suffer from dehumanisation, just because say their body no dey sabi collect sperm wella, to conceive pikin. And for most cases, dem dey always throw blame give them, say most of them dey barren, as their common sense no gree teach dem say, our men fit be the cause of the gbege sef.
One recent statistics wey World Health Organisation show, the statistic talk say more than 180 million couples ( 1 for every 4 couples) for developing countries dey suffer from primary or secondary infertility… chai this one no be small thing o…
WHO talk say na infections dey cause infertility for Africa, with 85 percent women compared with dem 33 percent worldwide… this dey really stress on the importance of prevention programmes for ogbodo Africa.
This na why Merck, one ogbonge pharmaceutical and chemical company launch one better initiative wey them dey call “Merck More than a Mother” initiative, the aim, na to combat infertility and those stigmatization wey dey associated for ogbodo Nigeria.
This launching sele first, for Lagos and them come waka go Abuja too, wey bring women leaders, policy makers, parliarmentarians, academics, fertility experts with other people together, to yan the way forward, to fit combat, identify and implement confirm strategies wey fit improve access to effective, safe and regulated fertility care for ogbodo Nigeria and to find interventions wey go fit decrease social suffering wey dey arise from infertility and childlessness.
E get one of the experts, for Lagos, one Chief Social Officer, Merck, him name na Dr. Rasha Kelej, him talk say the “Merck More than a Mother” initiative dey imperative for Africa, as say the consequences of infertility dey very much dramatic in developing countries and this fit create more ranging social and cultural palava compared to Western societies, particularly women dem.

“For some cultures, women wey no get pikin them, still dey suffer discrimination, stigma and ostracism. This na the inability to get any pikin or to carry bele, wey dey result person to dey isolated, disinherited or assaulted. e fit result to divorce or physical and psychological violenece… chai this one no be here o.

As a member of parliament, I notice say for Africa, governments too dey commit funds for the budget for family planning programmes, but no dey keep budget for infertility. So, I no get option, than to use this opportunity to make sure say Kenyan government enter board, to see say infertility na one big pgbege and all of us patapata must dey involve.”
