Too Funny - No Mosquito Net, No Wedding -sokoto State New Law by pelumi2tu(f): 3:04pm On Jun 21, 2017 |
As a way of curbing malaria and spread of other diseases, the Sokoto State Government's new law will mandate potential suitors to add insecticide-treated mosquito nets to the bride-price they pay before getting married. The new law also proposes that couples will also have to undergo testing for sickle cell gene, and enroll for a state community contributory health scheme to reduce the cost of medical treatment. According to DailyTrust, Sokoto health commissioner Balarabe Kakale said the law makes it compulsory for couples to undergo. testing for HIV/AIDS and Hepatitis B. The state health ministry is to sponsor a private bill before Sokoto legislature. But that will not come until a seminar agrees on the position of the law, Islam, and culture on premarital testing. Kakale said the measures were meant to reduce the menace of the diseases in Sokoto. Source : http://www.toyobabyblog.com/2017/06/funny-no-mosquito-net-no-wedding-sokoto.html
