NAPTIP says 58% of survivors fail to seek help after sexual violence

By GhanaSummary NewsroomNigeria

The figures were presented during a two-day SGBV Media Corps Workshop organised by NAPTIP with support from the European Union Support to End Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (ESGBV) Programme, implemented by the International Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance (International IDEA).

The National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP) has raised concern over the high rate of unreported sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) in Nigeria, saying 58 per cent of survivors do not seek help or report their experiences.

Mr Adekoye said technology-facilitated gender-based violence was emerging as an additional challenge, requiring greater public awareness and stronger collaboration among government agencies, civil society organisations, communities and the media.
