Dear Chief, The Federal Government has not taken cognizance of the crime of Femicide in any of its Policies/Laws.
Femicide is a distinct form of GBV that involves the killings of Women and Girls by men who are their intimate partners, relatives or acquittances. Our Femicide Bill

We urge everyone at the
#SummitoftheFuture2024
to speak frankly about the Global pandemic that Male Violence against Women and Girls is.
A Future where Femicide Persists is not acceptable.
Women and Girls must be free indeed, from Violence and all forms of Discrimination.

We are working on a publication of Femicide cases in Nigeria in the past 5 years (2019-2024). We have however been posting Femicide cases as seen across the country almost on a daily basis.
We have recorded about 52 cases this year alone.
Femicide is a pandemic in Nigeria.
We need a twitter account that documents Nigerian femicide and gender-based violence.
Till we can get an actual registry

March with us On Friday, 30th August 2024, to demonstrate, in front of the Lagos State House of Assembly the distinction between Femicide and Homicide/Murder in general.
Often times, state responses to micro aggressive factors that are underlying causes of Femicide are inadequate

Yes. Femicide is the highest manifestation of Gender Based Violence, an intentional Killing of Women by their Intimate Partner or relative. It is time for us all to take serious action against Femicide in Nigeria because Nigerian Women deserves to live free of Violence and thrive
Femicide is a sin and a crime. It is increasing in the world. It is the worst form of the violation of women's rights. It must be stopped.
Just because you married a woman does not give you the right to take away her life. Let's all stand up against Femicide.

The first step is to
#CallItFemicide
, Awareness and Legislation will go a long way in curtailing this crime against women and girls. GBV related killings isn’t being reported in the Media as Femicide, hence the difficulty in accessing accurate Data about Femicide in Nigeria
@DOHScares
What measures are they taking to enhance efforts in compiling comprehensive data on its occurrence?

This statement is tantamount to neglecting an abused child! A parent posting near-pornographic photos of a child should face criminal charges according to the Child's Rights Act. That child should be in the custody of the state/a scrutinized relative right now.
#ProtectChildren
This is an act of indecency and exposing the young child to moral dangers. The PPRO of Edo command will take it up and counsel the parents rather than prosecute them. Many of us don't know the implications of what we do. We will educate them, and many alike. This kind of a thing

Perpetrators of

should be prosecuted with a Femicide Law. That’s the only way we can ensure victims get justice.
This is why we have drafted a Bill on Femicide and submitted to both the Lagos State House of Assembly and The National Assembly.

Violence against Women and Girls is normalized in many countries and it is usually aided by tools of oppression: Religion and Tradition.
We condemn in totality this gross violation of the Human Rights of these women and girls that subjects them to denigrating and torturous acts
Muslim women have to do a loyalty test to see if they have committed adultery. Their tongue makes contact with red hot metal. If the tongue burns they have committed adultery.
One assumes it is next to the stoning.
What regressive attitudes.
