摘要：

Illegal induced abortion is still a major contributing factor to maternal morbidity and mortality in Nigeria. It is very common among school girls who are still ignorant of contraception. A good percentage of the abortions are procured by nonmedically qualified personnel. The author has not only advocated the introduction of sex education into the school curriculum as a redeeming measure, but also the provision of contraception in schools and the liberalization of the abortion law.
