Why is it that every post of yours just annoys me?

Why are you just a cynical toad? A pessimist.

Negro, you aren't the only one that lives/has lived in Europe.

The rape of minors is a relatively rare occurrence in strong European countries. This is different in the USA, where pedophiles are caught every other day. what is the difference? Both countries have strong police force and laws. The difference is awareness, education and attitude. There are far more functional illiterates in the USA than any European country.


Now, the EU didnt get to where it was in one day. The foundations have to be laid first.

Nigeria is changing. Did anyone believe that Lagos roads could get better before Fashola? Did anyone think Nepa could get better before Buhari?


There is always room for change.

=================================================


What you are misunderstanding here is the fact that I was discussing how to reduce rape of minors. It cant be stopped but it can be reduced.

Awareness alone can reduce at least 5% of rapes and that 5% represents many people's daughters- it is still something.

Do you know how many rapes could have been avoided if parents were more vigilant?
Do you know how many rapes could have been avoided if youths (15-22) were more vigilant the people around their younger siblings?
Do you know how many rapes could have been avoided if many iliterate villagers were educated about underage sex and its problems?


My aunt works for an NGO that provides condoms to villagers and lecture about sexual health. I can claim that my village has very few cases of abortion and teen pregnancy because of her service.

How did the NGO get to my village? Because a simple, caring man alerted them to problems in the rural area and told them that their money will be well spent helping the poor villagers. No govt money needed. NGO.

Imagine if lectures on rape and pedophilia are given in addition to the sexual health lectures that the villagers receive.


Guy. Your mentality is that of those "innit Nigerians" who praise Europe and fold their arms whenever a Nigerian problem is brought up.


Yes our laws are bad. Our police is corrupt. Our government is corrupt. That doesn't stop people from doing something.

AreaFada2:
Well, the offence is way too serious for mobile courts in 9ja setting. It needs thorough investigation to avoid miscarriage of justice as some severe cases will attract life imprisonment. More magistrates can be trained to handle them swiftly and sentencing can be referred to high courts if possible. Just to ensure proper justice.

Toddlers and 3 year old not decent there in lies the thought process. Op you not looking at it from the right angle but indirectly justifying rape.

SAMBARRY:
lame over used line. Even the ones that wear overall curtains that they call iya pudah are raped

raayah:


In the U.S most convicted sex offenders are banned from varios places. They can hardly get a job, their names and faces are splattered everywhere. They can never live a normal live. This is why they kill their victims because they know that the consequences of rape is bad.

However, they still get caught and justice is served in most cases.

The sexual assault cases in Nigeria are worse than U.S. The only reason why you think otherwise, is because the u.s media highly publicizes the crimes. In Nigeria, there are thousands of rapists walking the street and living a normal life. Some people even brag about it.

We even have some video proof of sexual assault cases in Nigeria. Yet Nothing is done.

This is the problem. You and I have to so something. Let us make noise and let people know there will be strict and enforced punishments for rape.

It does not seem like a big deal to you because you have never experienced it.

If your 2-year old son is raped , come back and tell me that Life in prison is not necessary and then I will believe you.

What I was trying to tell Standd... But them say my mouth dey smell.

Sabrwahaqqo:

If you are really concerned and passionate about the voiceless masses like you have said, I think the best you can do is to flag off an NGO that will stand up for the right of the oppressed.
OR
Pick a form come 2019 and run for a political office, the upper arm of the legislature will do. When you get there, you know what to do - you sponsor a bill that any man convicted of rape should be hanged by his balls or better still very hot metal rod be inserted into his banging pipe.
It's that simple

Sabrwahaqqo:

The point is what is the ratio....maybe 2:10, what are u gonna say to that?

Sabrwahaqqo:

Exactly what I wanted to hear - 9ja setting.... It needs to be adjusted If we really mean the business of razing down crime. I mean what else is needed as a proof for someone caught pants down n forcing himself on a minor?

cococandy:


read the link I just posted and the many others like it (e.g the one yester where the man blamed the 9 year old for seducing him) and others too where little kids are being molested then you won't tackle the problem from the "root" which in your wisdom is female indecency. WTH is wrong with you people?
How about the root that includes the depravity of the rapists?

standd:


You are right, I know what to do, it will take time but I will get there.

SAMBARRY:
keep using dressing to cover up rape . the old women constantly raped in enugu nko? Women in their 70s and 80s. I guess they were raped because they were flaunting too much skin

otiigba1:
no blame on your part, who wouldn't sleep off? After opening this can of worm ( paedophilia)

Its not funny i was almost a victim meself, i was just 6 years old, and this is the first time i am actually making it know to any one (you) i could not tell my parents. They would have killed me, the guy was a family friend

The insinuation on how people are dressed/what the were wearing is totally irrelevant

lastly i still remember it every day of my life it was horrible i was only 6 year old i applaud you for your effort in bringing this issue to light, please do not be discouraged, it only takes one step to begin, even if its only one 6 years old will be saved. It will be worthwhile

Sabrwahaqqo:

Babes, nobody is trying to justify rape here, A rapist is a madman no doubt.... The msg is for the vulnerable; how can she protect herself from molestations,how does she reduce the risk af being attacked by the sick in the head alpha positive, how wouldn't she be mistaken for one cheap LovePeddler'ol. That's what that advice was all about. Any question?

AreaFada2:
It can still be attempt to sodomise a child or actual sodomy of one. Medical checks and DNA semen test could be needed. Also whether child has been molested by same man or anyone else b4. Then the man's mental health status and possible previous crimes. A lot to investigate.

otiigba1:
please! Please! Please! Do not stop making noise about this issues, its way overdue, it won't be easy but do every thing within your power

Awareness is paramount to this ugly issue parents need to be aware, children mostly, churches, mosques, schools, loud speakers in communities make people aware

Victims should also speak out, and also be listened to and not shouted down or stigmatised, same way the ebola virus was gotten rid of.

If only there are about 100 more people like you, again i applaud your courage.

What I was trying to tell Standd... But them say my mouth dey smell.

standd:


No one said your mouth oozes oh.. People just pointed out to you that indecency is just a fraction of the problem here. Ladies who dress indecently deserved to be raped? Is that what you think? Do you honestly feel that if all ladies begin to dress decently, rape would stop? If that is the case, how do we dress our little kids and toddlers who get molested? How? The little boys and old women too?
How do we stop these rapists from thinking that women/girls/children are sexual objects that should be abused and defiled?

Freemanan, what can you do in your immediate environment to sensitize people about the stigma and effects of rape. To educate young ladies on decent dressing, to watch out for little kids and keep them out of harms way.

So, what are you willing to do? Or what do you think can be done?

otiigba1:
look! No one is saying that your mouth dey smell its just that this bastards also rape people covered head to toe.

there was a case recently over here, the rapist specialised in raping only women wearing Hijabs, now how do you explain that? Am sure you would accept that wearing a hijab is no way near INDECENT dressing

alphalpha:


OP was being sarcastic when Freemanan suggested decent dressing. Both of them were right and wrong

Freemanan:

Now I get a clearer picture sir

Sabrwahaqqo:

Lol. You don't seem to understand my stand. It is that the law of the land is way too lenient! Yeah, some other crimes like theft, murder etal needs meticulous handling , but this? NO!.... Someone that's attempting to take advantage of a minor doesn't have to be taken to d psychiatrist, its like saying you want a Vet. Doctor to heal a dead fowl.

otiigba1:
Am Glad you do and also what does it make us men if we can not resist or control our sexual urges just because women walks past us indecently dressed? DOGS?

standd:


Guess you are addressing grown ladies who walk around half-unclad.
But I beg you, what of the little kids, boys and girls in the neighbourhood that paedophiles have been fiddling with? Who will reach out to them? You are a gsgzb
man, so can you please suggest ways to effectively curb this rot in our society?

Freemanan:

Some men have their body configured in a way that they respond to every thing... You will be shocked at some of the things that arouse them, and they don't care in which shape or size it comes...
