ALARMING : Only 30% Of Married Men Use Condoms WIth Prostitutes

Prof. John Idoko
Only 30.5 per cent of married men who reportedly engage in “penetrative sex with commercial sex workers use condoms,” a research has shown.
The study showed that out of the 1,396 and 459 married male respondent who reside in urban and rural areas respectively, only 137 had used condoms with commercial sex workers in the past six months prior to study and only 63 men used it at last visit.
The Director-General of the National Agency for the Control of AIDS, Prof. John Idoko, said this during the presentation on PreExposureProphylaxis by the United States Mission.
About 62 per cent of new infections, he said, occurred among persons perceived as practicing “low risk sex”, including married sexual partners.

  7. If you add the run girls who have jobs that they sleep with and don't use condoms, the percentage is probably higher. I'm sure prostitutes are more careful than these run girls because it's their "open" profession.
