With Manicaland being one of the country’s hotspots for child marriages and teen pregnancies, The Manica Post has launched its annual awareness campaign against the twin evils through a public meeting that was held in Marange on Wednesday.

The Manica Post Editor, Mrs Wendy Nyakurerwa-Matinde said as a family newspaper, they are committed to actively fight child marriages, hence the decision to get into the communities and confront the issue head-on.

The anti-child marriages campaign will take place every year in March as part of commemorations of Women’s Month.

For this year’s event which ran under the theme ‘Let Them Grow’, Marange was a befitting venue for the inaugural edition of the campaign considering that it is one of the province’s hotspots
