Women leaders in Siaya County have vehemently opposed any plans to reduce the sexual consent age from 18 to 16 years.
Led by women representative Christine Ombaka, Governor Cornel Rasanga's wife Rosella Rasanga and the Executive member in charge of Education Mary Omondi, the leaders decried the already rising teenage pregnancies burden in the country which has led to high drop out in schools and the spread of HIV/AIDS among adolescents.
