The Ondo State Government has educated no fewer than 100 pupils, both males and females, across the 18 local government areas of the state on their sexual rights.
The government warned the pupils, who were selected from various secondary schools across the state, against allowing anyone to abuse them sexually and to report such acts to the government for prompt action.
The Permanent Secretary, Ondo State Ministry of Health, Adeniran Ikuomola, gave the charge yesterday at the 2024 World Sexual Health Day themed, ‘Positive Relationship: My body, my rights, my sexual health’.
Ikuomola, who was represented by the Director of Family Health, of the ministry, Mr Isaac Aladeniyi, said the programme was organised in collaboration with the World Health Organisation, to educate the pupils on ways to prevent sexual coercion against young ones.
