Abstract:
Unintended pregnancy among youth has severe implications on their health, education and social life. While 19% of adolescents 15-19 years have started childbearing, and 74.7% of youth aged 20-24 have started sexual activity by the age of 20 in Nigeria, contraceptive prevalence among this age group (15-24 years old) in Nigeria is still very low at 5.4%.
