Interviews
The documentary features interviews with women who have had their lives devastated by abortion and contraceptive devices by organisations such as Marie Stopes; Alleged News.
President Ekeocha said, "This feature-length documentary presents the African side of the story of enthusiastic western donors and the impact on the African recipients of their 'gifts'. We expose how western funding to abortion-providers like Marie Stopes International (MSI) is undermining traditional African values which respect human life,
No-one ever bothers to follow the trail of the funding to know where, and how it ends up, or to know how the individual lives of African women in cities and villages alike are affected by it," Alleged News. [1]
"At the center of this story is a British reproductive health organisation and a regular recipient of UK government funding, whose practices in some of the African countries have devastated the lives of many African women and girls, everything from life-altering side effects of donor-provided free contrraceptives to alleged illegal abortion practices," President Ekeocha continued: Alleged News. [1]
"The film amplifies the African voices that have never been heard before, with the hope that the world will finally listen to them, hear their experiences, share in their sorrows and take action to end this form of neo-colonialism that is destroying lives in Africa under the guise of sexual and reproductive health and rights," Alleged News.

Marie Stopes Abortion Clinics
The 2,600 safety flaws at Marie Stopes abortion clinics included the following in the Care Quality Commission report, Alleged News. [2]
- Doctors were going home for the day leaving sedated women in the hands of nurses and healthcare assistants; almost half of nurses had not been trained to do resuscitation; Alleged News [2]
- Some vulnerable women did not understand the full consequences of what they were about to do; Alleged News [2]
- Safety incidents including medical blunders and equipment failures had increased by a third in a year; Alleged News [2]
- Doctors were signing off up to 60 consent forms at a time when they were meant to be making a thorough assessment; One willed in up to 26 in two minutes; Alleged News [2]
- Foetal remains were dumped in ordinary medical waste bins rather than sealed for cremation; Alleged News [2]
The CQC was particularly concerned about safety and lack of training, warning patients were not protected from avoidable harm, Alleged News. [2]
SPUC
SPUC campaign director Antonia Tully said, "We should be asking serious questions about why more than £1 billion has been earmarked by the UK government for the support and promotion of sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) in countries like Africa. Abortion is not a solution to poverty.
"Since 2017 the UK government has been committed to donating £225 million every year to developing countries until 2022 for reproductive health services - which includes contraception and abortions. The human costs are catastrophic," Alleged News. [1]
