The price of sanitary pads is climbing at an alarming rate. Many girls and women can no longer afford sanitary protection during their periods and have resorted to old cloth bundled up with toilet papers or cotton and or just plain cloth.
Unbelievable? No, that is a fact. A Nigerian lady, Vivian Ugwu is now advocating for free sanitary items. Your thoughts?

#sad indeed
Yes o that's a good one up there I hope something is done
Who will pay for the production costs? Lol Sanitary pads should be cheap and not free like u said. Let's be reasonable here please
Meals should be subsidised for males but petrol should not be.
Males eat more due to our naturally bigger bodies. Products using petrol as fuel are gotten by choice.
The government has to ensure all males get meals subsidy for life.
I agree but lack of contraception can lead to death, lack of tampons lead to...well nothing
Hi Linda, I amissed a regular visitor to your blog but I don't comment. Please is there a way I help with assisting young girls with cash for sanitary pad thanks, I mean my paying into your alc or something ? N400 is way too much for sanitary pad
She has just spoken our minds biko
...merited happiness
Honestly I was surprised at the price too..Funny enough it isn't our making that we do menstruate.
I agree with her to a large extent ...
so true, I can't even afford it . Am not saying it should be totally free but it should be affordable for all and sundry
With this heavy flow, I so concur. Buh unfortunately, we r in a society dat celebrates evil over good. Why mak condom free-bcos of HIV? Pple ain't scared of HIV again lik before. End time is taking over, period.
i agree with what she has say
I Am A Guy... I found this important and true. Sell condoms N1,000 but reduce price of pads or better give it free.

980 for twin pack... I just tire... I really want to get belle now ooo

Very well said, just that menstruation doesn't cause AIDS.
Im a guy and agree too.
After belle, menses go return now, if menses was a choice , many will reject it.
In as much as this ma sound weird. She is truly correct. Not everyone can afford the new rate of sanitary pad.This should be looked into. from #200 to #400 seriously? Linda let's do a donation
Enter your comment...I concur with u...d matter tire me oo.
very correct!
-D great anonymous now as Vivian Reginalds
I support this writer...sanitary pads if not free should be highly subsidised.

Enter your comment...yes ooo I support 100percent
Thousands have sex without condom but a girl can't menstruate without pads. Pads should be almost free. This movement was actually started by CHINELO AKORAH a legal practitioner in Delta State.
Am in full support but then condoms should be free as well...Icharity is the real deal
It is an online peer to peer donation program where you are expected to donate N6,000 to someone and you in turn get donation from 5people and earn 30,000 in the process this will then take you to the next grade, where you are expected to earn N300,000 with only 12k donation.
In Icharity, you are expected to recruit 3 people and they system will randomly provide 2 more people to make donation. However, its only in grade one that you are expected to recruit people. From grade 2 onward, the system will randomly connect you with those who will provide help.
Note: Your down lines pay directly into your account in grade one and whatever spill over you have goes to other 'down lines' who may not be able to get 5 people to provide the needed help. You can however, choose to get all the donations from all your spill over but that will be when you get to grade 5..... https://goo.gl/9xKtPL
Very sensible, supported
Yes, I support. You can imagine when 1 always ultra is now sold for 400 naira. So expensive
My nsukka sister has sense
This post is damn touching... If the price is not checked, some young girls may lose their confidences during their period

She copied it from a Kenyan woman's page.
Condom should be free because it prevents diseases.
Menstral cycle is a natural cause. You might as well ask for free tissue for you pooh. Moron!
Good suggested.
SUPPORTED
Yes oooooo. Free sanitary towel.
Yes I support.
I concur,good point raised.
She's right joor
Lib addict#just passing#
E woooooooooooooo !
It is that bad...
IDiot''''u go lyk am if u babe dey use tissue???___pls preach it sister!
Shouldn't be free, but should be made cheaper..
This is what should be true feminism... Not fighting to maintain your surname after getting married. Fight for things that influences an average girl out there... Something that bothers on the female gender and their freedom to live without fear of anything. Nne for this, I'm going to share packs of Always UltraPad between February to April to as many poor girls as I can. Nice point.
I think it should be subsidised. D cost is ridiculous.
