The Executive Director, Action Health Incorporated, Mrs Adenike
Esiet, has advised parents and teachers that there is no age too early
to teach children s*xuality education. She advisd them to teach the
children at an early age to reduce early moral decadence.
According to Vanguard, Esiet gave the advice at a media roundtable
and launch of a book on school curriculum by Nigerian Academy of Science
(NAS). The curriculum is titled: “Family Live and HIV Education (FLHE) in Nigeria’’.
She told journalists on the sidelines of the project which is
focusing on the Issues of Youth Social Development (YSD) and
Reproductive Health (RH).
Esiet said that everyone should know that no age was too young to disseminate sexuality information and its outcome.
“In Nigeria of today, there are many cases of sexual abuse here
and there; teaching children sexuality education makes them know their
rights and when to find help.
“Considering what the entertainment, fashion, musical industry
disseminates these days, one must teach children or wards sexuality
education earlier than thought,’’ she told NAN.
Esiet also said that there were cases of teachers molesting
students. According to her, not only females are victims, so also male.
“The essence of this book is that it is a weapon of power for
the students when they are being touched inappropriately, they will
speak up.
“Introducing the FLHE curriculum in schools will reduce health-related challenges among youths,’’ she said.
According to her, the FLHE had helped to a great extent in
addressing teachers-students molestation in schools because students
could speak up when forced into relationships that are inappropriate.
“FLHE has helped some girls and armed young people to know
their rights and find help when being forced into relationship not
appropriate.
“With such power, alarm had blown on such teachers harassing and intimidating students to have unhealthy relationships,’’ she said.
Also speaking, the Project Lead, Prof Adeyinka Omigbodun, said that
the FLHE would help to reduce moral decadence and s*xual disease and
there would be an improved reproductive health of the adolescents.
Omigbodun said that the inclusion of the FLHE into the school
curricula would ensure that many of these young people had access to the
information and skills they need in this regard.
The President of the Academy, Prof. Mosto Onuoha, also said that
the objective of the round table was to inform newsmen on issues
bothering on youth social development, sexual education and reproductive
health.
Onuoha also advocated that newsmen should create awareness on youth
social development, s*xuality education and reproductive health
curriculum in schools.
