I am Lovejoy from Simchembo Secondary School. I am a teenage and a member of the Anti-Aids Club (AAC). Our aim is to prevent the spread of HIV.
I wanted to be one of those tested sexual activist while l am still at school. As l had that it is nice and didn’t know that this fruit will make my life have an ugly tomorrow as l will soon be HIV positive. Pupils at my school knew no one to speak to about HIV and AIDS; the behaviour of students was becoming wayward as they had no one to look up to. But the introduction of the AAC opened the eyes of my fellow peers as they got facts about HIV and AIDS, and also its effects to young people.
As a club we are now well informed and we are spreading information about HIV and AIDS to our communities including our on families, we are hopeful that by God’s grace we are going to combat the disease.
I am really grateful to Concern Worldwide for the support they are giving to our AAC club.
