As per the United Nations Population Fund, it is estimated that over 140 million girls will have been forced into marriage between the years 2011-2020.

I had a great interview on @1035fmradio1 raising #awareness on the dangers associated with #childmarriage… Did you know that children forced into marriage are at heightened risk for sexually transmitted infections, cervical cancer, reproductive health problems, obstetric complications, and mental health disorders? … It ultimately sets a child up for a lifetime of serious and potentially life threatening health problems and psychological distress! #EndChildMarriage
Never a dull moment in the studio with the wonderful ladies of @1035fmradio1 … Huge thanks for a great interview @rupysnow @eyitayoadebisi
