Wife of Ekiti State Governor, Mrs Feyisetan Fayose has advised women in active reproductive age range to limit the number of children they have in line with their economic wherewithal. Mrs Fayose said this at the state Specialist Hospital, Ikole Ekiti, during the payment of medical bills for some indigent patients.
Apparently worried by the huge number of women who had just delivered new babies but could not afford to pay their medical bills in the hospital, Mrs Fayose said women must take precautionary measures by way of regulating the number of children they could conveniently take care of so that would not have any negative effect in their lives.
“Let me use this opportunity to call on our medical personnel including doctors and nurses to educate our women on how to key into family planning medical process”The moment you are having three to four children,you should apply a break,so that you too can enjoy your life.
“God forbid that any adverse thing happens, who is going to take care of your children,’’ she said.
The first lady therefore called on women in the state to be mindful of their health and the harsh economic reality in the country.
