Video exposes Marie Stopes abortion activities in Africa

British taxpayers’ money is being used to fund abortion provision in African countries where the procedure is illegal, a leading pro-life advocate has said. Culture of Life Africa has produced a new video [1] in which it exposes the activities of Marie Stopes International (MSI) in a number of African countries where the group offers ‘reproductive health services’. The video speaks to one nurse, Desire Kirabo, who worked as an MSI centre manager in Uganda, where abortion is illegal. She explains how she began working there thinking it was a family planning organisation but in reality was providing abortions. “[B]ut they disguised that,” she states. It became apparent to her that “it was all about abortion”. The video also contains disturbing claims about the later disposal of aborted bodies.
