Truth is...
According to the Child Rights Law in Nigeria (31(2), anyone convicted of rape is liable to life imprisonment. Enacted by the federal government in May 2003, the CRL has been replicated by over 13 states in the federation.
Enacted? Yes! Enforced? Hell No!
Despite the laws, women and children continue to face repeated rape, molestation; some children are even trafficked for exploitation. Survivors are depressed, families are devastated while the police that ought to enforce the law are tagged" RAPIST OF THE YEAR"
SPEAKUP 9JA is here to say NO to do. According to the great Martin Luther King, "Injustice anywhere is a threat to Justice everywhere." The world cannot be peaceful for as long as we continue to encourage gender inequality. Join SPEAKUP 9JA today to combat RAPE IN AFRICA.
