Much progress has not been made in this regard and thus is so because some people still believe that education promote promiscuity and thus oppose programmes that provide access to having full information on it. Sex education is a lifelong process of acquiring information and forming attitudes, beliefs and values about one’s identify, sexual development, reproductive health, interpersonal relationship, intimacy, body image and gender roles. It addresses the biological, socio-cultural, psychological and spiritual dimensions of sexually. Now, two major reasons make sex education a subject any nation cannot afford to treat with levity. These are:
1. The dilemma which adolescent face – that is to say that, the impact of the so many development changes that takes place in their body is much.
2. The HIV/AIDS epidemic that could causes impaired fertility or stigma for life. In Nigeria, for example adolescents constitute over 22% of the population.
According to the centre for population, options in Washington D.C, USA, Nigeria adolescents recorded 905,000 births annually. Therefore, the most common outcome of adolescents’ sexually activity is unwanted pregnancy. Between 60 – 80% of patients coming to Nigerian hospitals are adolescents girls with abortion related complications. To further corroborate this, a study in Lagos state showed that 24% of sexually active respondents had at least one abortion and 48% had the procedure performed by qualified medical personnel. Akinsete, former chairman of Nation Action Committee on AIDS (NACA) mentioned other sequences of sexually transmitted diseases.
Vanguard educator weekly investigation shows that from the indiscriminating sex activity pervading the entire spectrum of secondary education. With risk of teenage unwanted pregnancy, abortion, STDs and death. It is clear that sex education is inevitable and as part of health education, students should be encouraged to set realistic and worthwhile personnel goals and also develop healthy patterns of living.
