The Member of Parliament for Nsuta Kwaman Beposo, Adelaide Yaa Agyeiwaa Ntim, says there is a need to promote menstrual health and hygiene among the youth.
According to her, it is important for policy makers and oragnisations to prioritise menstrual care for women and girls.
She stressed the importance of raising awareness about the challenges faced by those lacking access to sanitary products.
This comes after Mrs Ntim donated 1200 sanitary pads to students in her constituency and educated female students on maintaining cleanliness during menstruation.
The MP promised to support her constituents and improve their lives.
The Coordinator for Girl Child Education at the Sekyere Central District Education Directorate, Diana Edith Amoah, received the sanitary pads on behalf of the students.
She highlighted the significance of hygienic menstruation practices and expressed gratitude for the donation.
However, she acknowledged the challenges faced by many students in accessing sanitary products due to their vulnerable backgrounds.
