Nigerian Analyst Urges Government Action on Gender-Based Violence

Otiv Igbuzor, a public affairs analyst and director at the Central African Center for Leadership and Strategy Development (LSd), stresses the need for the Nigerian government to prioritize gender-based violence (GBV) frameworks. He highlights that 35% of Nigerian women face various forms of violence and calls for the integration of male engagement in GBV prevention efforts.

Igbuzor advocates for creating a nonviolent state where men, women, and children can live free from discrimination. He urges Nigerian men to embrace equality and transform the nation for the better.
