The Coordinator, African Women Lawyers Association Nigeria(AWLAN), Abuja chapter, Mrs Olanike Bakrin, has called for the elimination of violence against women and girls.
Bakrin gave the advice during a visit to Kpaduma Village at Asokoro in commemoration of the 2016 UN 16 days campaign against gender-based violence in Abuja on Saturday.
According to her, ending violence against women and girls can become a reality with laws to protect women and punish perpetrators as well as services to rebuild women’s lives and comprehensive prevention.
