Machakos Governor Alfred Mutua has dismissed claims that the county has recorded more than 4,000 cases of teenage pregnancies during the period of the Covid-19. Governor Mutua, who is serving his second term in office, said that the figure represents the number of times the pregnant minors have visited hospital and not the cases of teenage pregnancies. NATIONAL PROBLEM“I am shocked by the figures of teenage pregnancies reported. He further said that it was unfair that boys who make the girls pregnant go on with their lives while the girls are stopped from pursuing their education. Men who defile our girls need to be dealt with but we also need to talk to our sons,” he said.
