Angry Mabuza warns residents not to do sex as a form of pleasure when bored 2 Dec An angry Mpumalanga Premier David Mabuza strongly lashed out at Mkhondo Piet Retief citizens for being careless when engaging in sexual activities saying unsafe sex created more problems for the society. The ongoing campaign was part of the build-up activities by the provincial government to the World Aids Day commemoration.
The campaign is aimed at discouraging young girls from engaging in premature and unsafe sexual activities with older men sugar daddies. It further seeks to empower young girls to know their strength and refuse to depend on men for money and other favours in return for sex. He urged the citizens to stand up and fight against the pandemic which was destroying the nation.
He said lack of family values contributed to such problems as some parents were not strict enough but allowed their children to disobey and misbehave. Some parents would come home drunk and not be responsible for the well-being of their children, said Mabuza. While delivering his address on the stage, people shouted back and interrupted at the Premier saying they had nothing to do as they were unemployed but to make babies.
This thing creates problems in our society. They have a life; they must be planned for properly and be loved. They just cannot be borne by a mistake and worse be infected with HIV because their parents did not know their statuses. Such people are deliberately destroying our nation. What kind of a nation whose men sleep with young girls of 14 years old? We are saying no to people who destroy the future of our children. They are not the real men.
It is unacceptable that some men would woo young girls with money and small things like airtime for cell-phones. The numbers of pregnant learners at our schools are shockingly alarming.
