Married men in Ganjuwa LGA of Bauchi State are now demanding for more supply of condoms in their support for child birth spacing (CBS) in order to have a healthy family.

The Chairman, Ward Development Committee (WDC) of Kafin Madaki, Malam Mustapha Ibrahim disclosed this while speaking to Journalists on the activities of CBS in the area, noting that the program has been well accepted by people of the area.

“We as a Committee have embarked on serious awareness creation among the people and the program has been well accepted”.

Ibrahim added, “Men now come out publicly to demand for supply of condoms to support their wives but unfortunately for now, there is out of stock of the commodity here”.

Ibrahim, who said that men have come to understand that child birth spacing is important considering the economic situation of the country, noted that the situation is very encouraging as mortality and morbidity rate of martanal and infant has positively improved in the area.

He appealed to the BASPHCDA to as a matter of urgency supply CBS commodities including condoms to the facility so that the clients can access the services.
