Nigeria’s steady progress in the prevention of new HIV infections annually, is attracting deserved attention by stakeholders, a latest study by some civil society organizations (CSOs) has indicated.

“I got sick often so I couldn’t concentrate in class,” she says, adding that after giving birth she thought things would be much easier.

It s been more than eight months since abortion law reform came into force, yet the Ministry of Health survey found in some parts of New Zealand early medical abortions - where two pills are taken to induce a miscarriage within the first nine weeks of pregnancy - are not locally available at all.
It also found significant differences in later gestation abortion services offered across DHBs, meaning it s harder form some people to access the procedure because of where they live.
Associate Health Minister Dr Ayesha Verrall said abortion services are an essential part of women having control over their fertility. She told RNZ she expects to see continuous improvements in the way those services are provided by DHBs across the country.
