A Borno based consultant and humanitarian, Mallam Yusuf Gulumbo, has revealed that about 100 ladies who are working for some International Non-Governmental Organizations (INGOs) in the state - are pregnant and have also been infected with HIV.

According to Mallam Yusuf, the girls affected are said to be between 20-25 years old as an appeal was made to him today to use his office to prevent recruitment of unmarried ladies into the NGOs in a bid to curb the negative trend.

Below is what Mallam Yusuf shared on Facebook;

On my return to Ngala:

I received Ba Mai of Ngala or Mai tadawaye (King of Youth) of Dikwa Emirate Council on Courtesy call to my office and his Wakil, with regard to INGOs operations within Ngala soil and way forward.

I was informed about 100 ladies from 20, 25 working with INGOs in Ngala were now impregnated and HIV positive. In another development, the community leaders that through the District Head of Gamboru is requesting my humble office suspend the INGOs from recruiting these unmarried girls into their operational activities because of the exploitation going on within their various institutions.

I have been my very since my inception into this office to sanitize the system but this time around with regards to the aforementioned allegations I want your sincere advice before I forge into action. ?

The service featured the introduction of various dignitaries, including Senator George Akume, Secretary to the Government of the Federation who represented President Bola Tinubu, Governor Sheriff Oborevwori, Governor Godwin Obaseki, and Former Governor Ifeanyi Okowa.
