Mind blowing. In just this area in northern #Uganda, 17,700+ teenagers have given birth during #COVID19 lockdown, majority giving up #education. Expand across the country, across the #African continent, and around the globe. How many #girls aren't in #school?

An investigation by @AbaloIrene1 for @ntvuganda indicates that some 17,000 girls in the northern part of Uganda got pregnant during lockdown that @GovUganda, led by President @KagutaMuseveni, imposed in a bid to stem the spread of #COVID19 last year. https://buff.ly/3gnRQje pic.twitter.com/cCz1ii2GY9
