He blamed PTA fees for forcing girls out of school; hence the teenage pregnancies and early marriages.
Teenage pregnancies and child marriages, he said, are exacerbated by endless school charges, at the behest of PTAs.

Kadaga in her turn said all Ugandans should support the president to render formal education completely free.
