The Trump administration’s actions are causing serious harm to sexual & reproductive health & rights globally. To protect people’s health and rights, the international community must act decisively. Read our new commentary in @TheLancet:

Pregnant women in Nigeria should have free access to healthcare until one year postpartum. The government should cover the cost of services- from prenatal to postpartum care. Countries like Burkina Faso, and Zimbabwe have implemented this. Nigeria can, too! This is where an

At the just-concluded forum, the wise @osemele_osemele dropped a truth bomb, bringing a light-hearted touch to the discussion of unplanned pregnancy and unsafe abortion. With a clever quip, he said, 'Weather for Two; Pregnancy for one'.

It's madness and mayhem out here.......
