The effect of rape on a victim’s psyche is better imagined than experienced. Rape survivors face extreme difficulty and painful emotions that last all through their lives and all would agree that it is important we put an end to the culture of rape in our society.
I commend the young men and women whom over the past few weeks have come out strongly in support of the message to #EndRape and I commend the Nigerian police who were successful in apprehending the gang of boys who were alleged to have raped Miss Uwaila Omozuwa, an undergraduate student of the University of Benin.
It is important all Stakeholders in the justice sector take a critical look at rape and the chain of reporting and prosecution. Moreso, our laws which prohibit the assault of women should be enforced to the greatest degree in order to safeguard the lives of our young women now and in future generations. In achieving this we may also need look into the formative stage of the male child.
My name is Carol Ibharuneafe and I stand against rape and sexual assault.
