We, in the negative side, strongly opposed the idea of the abortion in cases of incest

According the 1987 Constitution provides that State shall equally protect the life of the
mother and the life of the unborn from conception. This State Policy gives the right to
life of unborn from conception and as well as the mother, scientifically provided that
human life is commonly believed to begin from the moment of conception when the
female egg and the male sperm merge at fertilization, from the moment, a new life is
formed and starts to grow as any living being, the unborn human embryo in the
maternal womb is considered a whole, separate human being and, truth to tell, most
defenseless one, he has the basic human right to life which the state is enjoined to
In short, once it is conceived, the unborn child is a living person with the right to be born
and the right to live and must be given the consequent respect and dignity.
This section also categorically mandating the protection of the unborn prevents the
against any law or judicial decree permitting abortion which is inherently evil as it
involves the killing of defenseless human being in the womb of the mother and also
saving life of mother though in addition to this section the state has still another
compelling interest aside from the right to life of the unborn which is the health of the
mother whose life it shall equally protect. The sacrifice of the life of the unborn when
medically established as necessary to save the life of the mother is not abortion.

innocent part, in cases of rape that lead to conception, there are 3 parties involved the
rapist, the woman and the unborn child. Which is these three 3 parties? Is guilty of a
crime and deserve to be punished? The woman who did nothing wrong, the child did
nothing wrong, only the rapist is guilty but abortion means that the innocent child is
given a punishment even the guilty rapist won’t face. In no other situation do we suggest
a child should be punished for their parent’s crime, in fact we would never justify killing
an unborn child who was conceived from rape. Hence abortion will not change what
happened, abortion may seem like a way to minimize the pain but in fact, it will not
change the past, and it cannot make a victim forget what happened, many things well
beyond a pregnancy can act as reminders to victims of sexual assault, abortion doesn’t
make the woman any less of a victim but creates another victim, rape is wrong so is
abortion, the fact that rape is wrong doesn’t make abortion okay?
