Uganda Lawmakers reject contraceptives for 15 years old girls

 Lawmakers in Uganda have rejected a proposal by the government to give the nod  for 15-year-old girls to have access to birth control pills.

The Deputy Speaker, Thomas Tayebwa, described the proposal as devilish and stressed that it would officially promote the defilement of girls in the country.

Almost a quarter of 15- to 19-year-old girls in Uganda are either pregnant or are already mothers.

Be very familiar with the word of God and also, go further to put it practice for you to receive the abundant blessings and protection of God. Matthew 7 : 24-29 24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: 25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. 26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: 27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it. 28 And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine: 29 For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.
