Girls live in fear and disagreement with parents over forced marriage, says Juba CMS school head teacher.
 
Florence Henry says there are so many school girls with promising academic future already engaged to be married off soon.
 
The girls are trying to resist, but the parents are over all decision makers, the teacher explains.
 
Madam Florence suggests that the government should launch countrywide campaigns against forced marriage to get rid of the vice.
 
CRN could not independently verify cases of forced marriage in the country.
