Akontombra-Nkwanta (W/R), Sept. 30, GNA- Twenty-two Junior Secondary School students from the Akontombra-Nkwanta electoral area, who have protected their virginities up to date, have come together to form a club.

Mr. Jim Peprah, a national service person who is the organiser, told the Ghana News Agency (GNA) that members of the club have vowed to remain virgin until they get married.

Mr. Owusu Minta, Aowin-Suaman district focal person on HIV/AIDS, who inaugurated the club at Akontombra-Nkwanta on Sunday, commended members of the club for being role models in their communities. He advised the youth to emulate members of the club and avoid casual sex, because it could ruin their lives and added that they should be wary of men who would want to take undue advantage of them for their selfish ends.

Mr. Minta said, the best way to avoid contracting the HIV/AIDS disease is to abstain from sex.
