Jos, 16 February, 2024 / 9:20 pm (ACI Africa).
The International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF), “a well-funded pro-abortion group from the United States” has “infiltrated Nigeria, blatantly ignoring the country's strict abortion laws and going against its cultural and religious values,” Catholic activists under their umbrella body, CitizenGo Africa, have said.
In an online petition launched Thursday, February 15, members of CitizenGo Africa want IPPF expelled from the West African nation as it “contravene(s) Nigerian law and cultural values.”
“It is time to expel the International Planned Parenthood Federation from Nigeria and put an end to their harmful practices,” they say.
The Catholic activists add, “IPPF, notorious for killing and selling baby parts in the US, has disguised itself as a family planning service provider in Nigeria.”
Those behind IPPF, they say, are “pouring money into the country, promoting abortion and sexualization of young people, all while ignoring the real needs of Nigerians – clean water, good roads, hospitals, and education.”
