Today 28th, which is being marked as World Menstrual Hygiene Day, the Young Entrepreneurs and Leadership Association (YELA) in show of solidarity acknowledges the strength, sacrifices and pain women go through every month.
YELA uses this medium to advocate for proper sex/health education, which will help erase the stigma, myth and silence surrounding menstruation.
The leadership also called on government at all levels to provide clean water and sanitation facilities at public areas to aid good hygiene during menstruation.
Women are encouraged not to relent despite the challenges faced in this present time and to prioritize education, skill acquisition and entrepreneurship.
The NGO promises women for support and inclusiveness in all their programmes and activities and urges everyone to join help fight the stigma and uphold the dignity of women.
