Mamane’s story
Maradi, Niger
« I have been a peer educator since this year. I show people the problems of HIV»
« I did the test in year 3, I had a boyfriend, Angel, and we did the test in the hospital after sex. It’s important to take the test because girls today do too much silly things, and boys too. I explained to my friends that it had to be done.
Those who neglect the test do not go to school, for them it is not important. But I tell them it’s for their health. Some understand. Others are stubborn.
They say that anyway, now with antivirals, you can live with the disease.
I have only been doing theater this year. I do dance too. I would like to have the Bac and continue my studies.»
