The increase in the incidence of rape is heart wrenching and disheartening. As if we as women haven’t been burdened enough, adding domestic violence, rape, and victim shaming to it is a lot to bear.
COVID-19 is difficult and challenging for us all, why increase the burden on women and the girl-child.
Ms. Uwa’s only crime was being a female, why have we placed little or no value to the life and well-being of females and the girl-child. Why is there so much violence directed toward the female gender?
OH my heart bleeds for the girl-child, she has become an endangered species, prey to all who come in contact with her, abusers at every turn be it at home, school, church, mosque, workplace and even in marriage.
It’s time we all lend our voice and put an end to this scourge. It’s Uwa today, it could be you, your daughter, or your wife tomorrow.
Let’s all say no to rape.
Real men don’t rape.
