The Daily
Mail reports that virgins in Swaziland, which is one of Africa's
poorest countries, are being offered £11 a month to abstain from sex; are you
kidding me?
Swaziland's ‘playboy King’, Mswati
III, has reportedly approved the benefits scheme in a bid to curb HIV across
the state.
However, critics claim the
flamboyant ruler - who already has 15 wives - is simply trying to ensure any
future brides are disease-free.
The British paper, however,
reports that details have to be established about how the girls will be
monitored to ensure they are not having sex.
