Alma Pokua Adade-Prempeh, wife of former Education Minister, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, has called for significant reforms in addressing challenges with menstrual hygiene, particularly among young girls.
The wife of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Vice Presidential candidate made the clarion call at her alma mater, Accra Girls Senior High School.
This was when she graced the 64th anniversary menstrual hygiene programme, as a Special Guest of Hour.

Mrs Adade-Prempeh emphasized the importance of good hygiene practices in ensuring that girls stay in school, feel confident, and participate fully in their education.
