Sanwo-Olu: There Is No Pardon For Gender Violence Offenders, Rapists

Sanwo-Olu has again insisted that his administration is declaring a  total war against gender violence offenders and rapists in the State, saying there is no iota of pardon for them.
Sanwo-Olu said this on Thursday when he received a 54-page compendium on Sexual and Gender-Based Violence compiled by the Stakeholders’ Committee.
According to him, perpetrators of the evil act will all be brought to book. “We will ensure they never walk freely without the full wrath of the law brought upon them. It is part of our responsibility to ensure that the vulnerable members of our society have a voice and have access to where they can get justice when their rights are violated”, he said.

The governor who is the Incident Commander for gender-based violence in Lagos equally reassured of his government’s commitment to getting justice for victims violated, said his administration would be prioritising budgetary allocations to the Ministry of Justice for the acceleration of offenders’ prosecution. “I am delighted by the work done by the Stakeholders’ Committee to bring attention to the problems facing voiceless adults and children in our society. Through your efforts, vulnerable people are building the courage to speak out on offences of sexual violence and heal their wounds.”Photos Credit: Getty
