Menstrual Hygiene Day: FCT secretariat mobilises support for girl child

The Women Affairs Secretariat of the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) on Wednesday mobilised residents of the territory to support the girl child during their menstrual period.

The Mandate Secretary, Dr Adedayo Benjamins-Laniyi, made the call in Abuja at an event organised to commemorate the 2025 World Menstrual Hygiene Day.

Benjamins-Laniyi called on residents to support the administration’s quest to make the FCT period-friendly.

According to her, it is time to prioritise educating the girl child on biological makeup which should not be a hindrance to accessing quality education. (NAN)
