Allow Teenagers To Practise Safe S**x,’ Church Leader Admonishes

A counsellor and elder of a church of Pentecost, New Achimota District in Ghana, Mr Nii Armah Hammond, has admonished parents and guardians to allow teenagers who can’t control their sex drive to be allowed to practice safe s*x.

The church leader stated this while speaking at a radio show on Ahotor Fm. The radio program was aimed at educating and counselling youths.

Mr Hammond, the church leader in his argument said that the best means of preventing teenage pregnancy and its associated complications is by allowing teenagers practise protected s*x.

He noted that the stigma associated with teenage pregnancy is way too much and it affects the family even long after the act and in most cases making the children born to be liabilities for the nation.

”Telling the youth to abstain is a failed strategy, as they will have it anyway, so the best way to prevent teen pregnancy is to educate them on the use of condoms,” he argued.
