This is not just a crime, it is a failure of systems. We must commit to strengthening systemic responses to sexual violence from safe reporting mechanisms to survivor centered justice and institutional accountability. Protect women. End impunity. @BigBadReni @SavvyRinu @kikimordi @faree_for_real

OZORO COMMUNITY The condemnation by the Delta State Government of the horrific harassment and assault of women during the Ozoro Festival is a necessary step but it must not end at words. What has been described is not culture. It is violence. It is criminality, and it reflects a dangerous normalization of abuse when communities, leaders, and bystanders fail to act. We demand swift, transparent investigations and prosecution of ALL perpetrators. Survivors must receive protection, justice, and support, not silence. No tradition, festival, or social norm can override the constitutional rights of women to dignity, safety, and bodily autonomy. This is a defining moment for accountability. Nigeria must show that violence against women will not be excused, ignored, or tolerated. @faree_for_real @BigBadReni @SavvyRinu @kikimordi @AishaYesufu @obyezeks @ChiomaChuka
