Gender experts have advocated for the creation of a government-funded compensation scheme for victims of sexual, gender based violence and violent crimes in Nigeria.
At the launch of a collection of poems in memory of victims of gender based violence, they lament the increasing rate of abuses despite existing legislations imposing severe penalties for Sexual and Gender-Based Violence in the country.
An emotional occasion as family, friends and well wishers gathered to celebrate the life and times of a fourteen year secondary school girl, Keren Akpagher, who died after series of alleged rape in her school.

Indeed, the statistics are alarming.
In 2022, the United Nations said more than 11,200 girls and women were raped in 2020 alone.

The woman who have to bear the pain of losing an only girl child, fights back tears as she recounts the absence of psycho-social support, despite provisions by the Violence Against Persons Prohibition Act, VAPP.
Her pain is made worse by the lack of official police report on the cause of her daughter’s death since 2021.
Experts and other concerned citizens at the meeting challenged the Nigeria police force and other relevant government bodies to ensure justice for the memories of Keren and other unsung victims of gender based violence. They say it’s only then that Nigeria can see an end to violnce against the girl child.
