The fear of rape has restricted the free movement of our women, through the panic of being raped, their freedom to move or hang around are deprived and denied.
Sexual violence has become the way of life for some men, they do it for their own satisfaction by forcing women ladies, girls to do what they are not plan or happy with.
The rate of reported cases of rape have become so high, some are forced, some are kidnapped, and some were even raped in front of their parents, some were even raped by their parents and sexually abused.
The lives of our women are now in panic, fear, sorrow, and unforgettable wound of heart, they can't decide on what to do, they can't hang around with their friends, they are living a scary life.
Women have the right to live free from Violence, slavery and discrimination, they have the right to be educated, to own property, to vote, and to earn a fair and equal wage.
As the now famous saying goes " Women's right are human rights", that is to say, women are entitled to all these rights, yet almost everywhere , women and girls are still denied them, often simply because of their gender.
Almost every womenn are faced with sexual assault, physical assault and lots more, they have the right as a woman and they are also equal as human being.
Winning rights for women is about more than giving opportunities to any individual woman or girls, it is also about changing how countries and communities work. It involves changing laws and policies, the way women are treated, the way women are sexually abused and being raped.
Despite great effort and strides made by the international women's rights movement over many years, women and girls are still forced into labor, sex slavery and being raped.
Some are trapped in conflicts where rape is perpetrated as a weapon of war. Women are prevented from making deeply personal choices in their private lives.
Sexual violence against women and girls is one of the most widespread, persistent and devastating human rights violations in our world. Today's unreported due to the impunity, silence, stigma and shame surrounding it.
Sexual violence against women continue to be obstacle to achieving equality, development and peace as well as to be fulfilment of women and girls.
