Women's political participation in Nigeria is hindered by systemic barriers like limited funding and bias. The Simi Olusola Feminist Political Participation Fellowship aims to empower a new generation of feminist leaders through research, training, and storytelling. #Feminist

As darkness fell, Jesus breathed His last. God's presence doesn’t stop death; it enters it. Grief and silence are not signs of abandonment. This Good Friday invites us to trust that God is near, even when hope feels buried. Wishing you a Blessed Good Friday. #BlessedFriday

BREAKING: Terrorists shoot residents dead in Rukuba, Jos, Plateau. No ambulances in sight. No emergency services in sight No police, no soldiers. Nothing except citizens left to fend for themselves. Nigerians can’t get a break from the incompetence of this APC government.

They rape babies They rape fully covered women They rape drunk girls They rape girls who just went to read They rape women randomly on the streets They rape women in their homes They rape women in hijabs They rape christian sisters They rape teenagers They rape old women, old enough to be grandma’s They rape female friends They rape wives or girlfriends They rape female dead bodies in the morgue They rape wome who wear skimpy clothes They rape even in church They rape sisters, cousins, nieces, daughters Bosses rape their workers They rape because you said “no” or refuse their advances They rape because you refuse to give your contact They rape because they called you and you refused to reply As long as you’re a woman, black or white, old or young, outside or inside, have it at tha back of your mind that you can be a victim of rape. So thinking women who speak against rape are “bitter angry feminists who generalize” isn’t a smart thing to do sis. Making excuses for rape as a woman? You should be ashamed of yourself.

In Ozoro, Delta State, women and girls were hunted like prey. This must not go unpunished.

SEXUAL ASSAULT ON WOMEN AT OZORO FESTIVAL IS A NATIONAL DISGRACE A society reveals its true character in how it treats its women. Where women are chased, stripped, groped, violated, and publicly humiliated by mobs under the guise of celebration, what is on display is not culture. It is barbarity. It is a collapse of conscience. It is a stain on our shared humanity. The deeply disturbing reports emerging from a recent festival in Ozoro, Delta State are not just troubling, they are horrifying. Women were allegedly accosted in broad daylight, forcefully stripped of their clothing, sexually assaulted, and subjected to degrading treatment by groups of young men while others watched, recorded, and, in some instances, cheered. No woman should ever have to endure such terror, such exposure, such violation of her dignity. This was not a festival. This was lawlessness. This was gender-based violence in its most primitive and shameful form. These acts amount to a grave violation of the fundamental rights to dignity of the human person, personal liberty, and security as guaranteed under the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended), as well as other international human rights instruments. They also constitute serious criminal offences under our laws, including assault, sexual violence, and public indecency. The NBA condemns these acts in the strongest possible terms. No tradition, no custom, no so-called cultural practice can excuse or legitimise the degradation and violation of women. Any practice that permits such cruelty is not culture. It is criminality. We call on the Delta State Government and all relevant law enforcement agencies to act swiftly and decisively. The perpetrators must be identified, arrested, and prosecuted. Those who aided, enabled, or failed to intervene must also be held accountable. Justice must not be delayed, and it must not be selective. Silence, indifference, or excuses in the face of such brutality only embolden further abuse. We further call on community leaders, traditional institutions, and festival organisers to take urgent responsibility. Cultural celebrations must never become theatres of violence. They must reflect dignity, order, and respect for human life, not chaos and cruelty. The protection of women is not optional. It is a legal duty. It is a moral obligation. It is a test of who we are as a people. Nigeria must not become a place where women live in fear of being stripped of both their clothing and their dignity in public spaces. This must never happen again! Mazi Afam Osigwe, SAN President, Nigerian Bar Association Huwaila Muhammad Chairperson, NBA Women Forum

Ozoro in Delta State revealed once again the failure of Governance and preventive policing in our country. The scale and coordination of the sexual attacks of girls and women in repulsive videos and images suggest that those criminal violation of women were not at all spontaneous. It therefore raises urgent questions about intelligence, community policing, and the visible presence or absence of law enforcement. The failure of governance is evident in the deeply disgusting, disgraceful and completely unacceptable acts that depraved men audaciously perpetrated in that community. There is no culture, no tradition, and no circumstance that justifies the assault of women. What occurred in that Ozoro community was not cultural expression- it was criminal violation and violence against women. It was organized, brazen, and dangerous criminal behavior by criminals who believe that as usual, there will be no consequences for their acts of depravity. When a society begins to warn women to stay indoors to avoid being attacked, instead of restraining and punishing those who commit such acts, that society is signaling a total collapse of law, order, and moral leadership. The Delta Government and the Nigeria Police @PoliceNG led by IGP @TunjiDisu1 must move beyond the statements made. Every individual involved must be identified, arrested, and prosecuted without delay. Justice must be visible, swift, and decisive. But beyond enforcement, this is a moment of reflection for all of us as Nigerians- Political and Traditional Leaders, Citizens, Communities and Organizations. We must collectively act firmly or risk enabling a dangerous precedent like we have on other matters where Nigeria has normalized impunity. This moment therefore demands more than reactive arrests. It requires: 1. Immediate prosecution of all identified perpetrators by @PoliceNG 2. A public accountability process led by the Delta State Government 3. Clear deterrence signals through swift judicial action 4. Nationwide reinforcement of zero tolerance for gender-based violence 5. Strengthening of community-level intelligence and policing systems Ozoro is a core test of state capacity and legitimacy which is clearly now too eroded for comfort. Above all, the key question in all of these is “How deeper do we as Nigerians want our country to sink?” The answer is in our hands. ✍🏾✍🏾✍🏾

Rape is a grave violation of human rights; it is not a JOKE, not a TRADITION and certainly not a CELEBRATION. We strongly condemn the so-called “Rape Festival “ reported in Ozoro community, Delta State.
