The findings also revealed that the administrators of the schools inadequacy to cope with their responsibilities does not bring about pregnancy and abortion on girl-child education in secondary schools and in many schools sex education is not taught at all. Furthermore, the findings revealed that societal influence has acted as one of the problem that bring about pregnancy and abortion on girl-child education in our society and that the impact of pregnancy and abortion on girl-child education is a general problem not only in our secondary schools, but a general problem in the society.
