YOUNG PEOPLE ARE SMARTing –

Dec. 7, 2023 –  The young women, some of whom were once married but separated from their husbands following devastation caused by the killer drinks, have been driven to desperate measures to tackle alcohol harm. 

Using sports, the young mothers hope to woo the sober men back to the field to sharpen their talents instead of spending their leisure time at drinking dens.

Already, the single ladies have formed various football teams that have been training at Wandui Primary School, a platform they also use to sensitize locals about the dangers of alcoholism.
