An elder of the church of Pentecost in Achimota has dropped a bombshell – teenagers should be allowed to practice safe s*x.

Nii Armah Hammond, speaking on Ahotor fm during a program aimed at educating the youth, said that allowing teenagers to practice safe s*x is better than leaving them to their own devices where they are certain to have unprotected s*x.

According to ahotoronline, the esteemed church elder believes protected s*x is crucial in preventing teenage pregnancy, which is a menace and brings untold hardship onto the girl and her family, as well as the associated social stigma.
