Health News of Monday, 24 May 2021Source: GNAMaxwell Kotie, the Assin South District Health Promotion Officer, says access to accurate education on Sexual and Reproductive Health Right (SRHR) is a sure way to reduce teenage pregnancy. He said though society refrained from sexual education, it had become necessary for parents to discuss sexual health and related issues with their children to help them make informed decisions. He was speaking at a day's youth dialogue series on gender equality, SRHR and Gender-Based Violence (GBV) for young people in second circle institutions. Mr Tagoe urged them to abstain or better still be faithful to their faithful sexual partners and not share sharp objects with others. For his part, Mr Richard Boadi Twum, a representative of the Domestic Violence and Victim Support Unit (DOVVSU), cautioned all against the criminalities involved in sexual offences like rape, incest, defilement and several others.
