The distribution of sanitary pads to schoolgirls in Onigbongbo community, Ikeja, has commenced, benefiting pupils of Onigbongbo Community Primary School, Wasimi, and 9 Brigade Primary School within the Army Cantonment.
The exercise is part of the “Flow with Confidence” initiative, launched by Senator Oluremi Tinubu under the Renewed Hope Initiative, to promote menstrual hygiene and support girls’ education across Nigeria.
Announcing the programme earlier at his palace, the Awuse of Onigbongbo, Oba Oluwasegun Adeyemi Ajasa, reaffirmed his commitment to improving the well-being of young girls in the community.
He explained that the distribution would be extended to other schools in due course.
The monarch also urged the pupils to remain focused on their studies and not allow anyone to take advantage of them, stressing the importance of self-respect and education in shaping their future.
