There’s no longer a hiding place for rapists in Nigeria. This is because the Buhari-led Government is now deploying power at the highest level to combat the scourge in Nigeria. Minister of Women Affairs Pauline Tallen says one of the ways the federal Government would fight the menace is to ensure all States domesticate the Violence Against Persons Prohibition Act, 2015.
Meanwhile, the 36 State Governors have declared a ‘state of emergency’ on sexual and gender-based violence against women and the girl-child. This is according to a communique issued by the Nigeria Governors Forum, after its 10th Covid-19 Teleconference meeting. The Governors, in the communique signed by the Chairman of the Forum Kayode Fayemi renewed their commitment to ensure offenders face the full weight of the law.
