Government, when we say we violate your rights most of governments, and as a uniform person, you are also government. You violate, I violate, somehow, somehow, somehow. But we just want them to provide the necessary, the basic things that will make our girls, even when they are raped and they go to shelter, they will have enough things, equipment and medical facilities to treat them accordingly. Majorly, our traditional rulers, our religious leaders, because we find out some of these things are under our cultural practices. Look at genital mutilation, for example. They hide under cultural practices to do some of these things. So we must continue their awareness creation. It's very important. It's been said that prevention is better than cure. The theme for the 2023-16, the activism against gender-based violence is invest to prevent violence against women and girls.
