 By the Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency in collaboration with the Alimoshaw Local Government, Igbe Idumu and Ikotri Godu Local Council Development Areas have organised a programme to sensitise the people on the dangers of silence in the face of sexual and gender-based violence. The sensitisation programme took place in Alimoshaw Local Government area. Our correspondent Paul George reports. The facilitator, Bosse Inronse, says gone are the days when women will keep quiet in the face of threats to life. She speaks alongside others. The purpose of this gathering is to enlighten our men, our women on child abuse and sexual violence. We have some people that have lost their life, they've lost their dignity, they don't have anybody to report to, they don't know what to do, they are ashamed. That's why we come out to enlighten people, to give them confidence of speaking out whenever they experience any difficulty, any abuse, any violence, so that the government can come to their aid. The first thing is to sensitise the citizens that they should see something, say something and do something immediately. We should also include the law enforcement agencies by sensitising them that once this happened, they don't need to body shame the victim because sometimes we've had arguments that say because women are working naked that's why they're being reported. What about the case of a three-year-old or a one-year-old where they're working naked? To nip domestic violence on the board, those affected are encouraged to speak up at the site of the threats.
