The Executive Director, Women of Inestimable Values, Mrs Blessing Eze, has called on victims of sexual assault, abuse, and domestic violence to always speak out. Eze said this during a visit by members of the non-governmental organisation to PUNCH Place, Magboro, Ogun State, on Thursday. According to her, the NGO empowers individuals, including secondary school students, to know their rights and report sexual and gender-based violence. She said the organisation was established in 2017, by a group of women with a passion to end gender discrimination, gender inequality and sexual abuse. We’ve had four male cases but gender-based violence is common among women.
