Abuja Women Accused Of Prostitution By Police In Utako Abuja Narrate Their Experiences

I’m at the Press Conference organized by Education as a Vaccine, FIDA, and Dorothy Ndjemanze Foundation, among others, on #AbujaPoliceRaidonWomen. I’ll share snippets of video showing these women’s experiences. Caution: it’s grim stuff.

I didn’t get all the stories, these are just some. They all cover much the same territory: women arrested for being merely just being there under the most frivolous of reason ma, arrested then raped and abused. this state-sanctioned violence and must stop #AbujaPoliceRaidonWomen

After beating and molesting these women, these women are extorted of money. The women at the briefing said they were made to pay between 3 and five thousand each. They’re pressed to plead guilty then asked to pay a fine as high as 15k. #AbujaPoliceRaidonWomen

If they even make it to mobile courts, women are sometimes even refused legal representation. From top to bottom, this is inhumane, unconstitutional and against the law. #AbujaPoliceRaidonWomen

Extrajudicial killings,
Disregard,
Abuse, etc.

Not to boys, men only but ladies. We're in big trouble in this country. Again, this is your call @NGRSenate @ProfOsinbajo
and @NGRPresident

One thing I know...these perpetrators of evil will rot in hell, while they are alive.
