Bauchi Chief Registrar raises alarm over rising cases of gender-based violence

Sublim made the revelation on Wednesday in Bauchi at the opening of a one-day programme on Women, Peace and Security in Nigeria, organized by United Nations Women at the Command Guest House.

Sublim also informed that at times parents of victims refuse to make statements to corroborate some of the cases that come up in courts, saying that it is a cultural problem that hampers the smooth prosecution of such cases. “The unfortunate thing is that the cases don’t end up in conviction. This is either that there are problems in the course of investigation or problems in the course of prosecution or problems when case files are sent to the Ministry of Justice for legal advice,” the Chief Registrar said.

“We are really worried and I think this programme is a forum where we begin to sensitize ourselves and those we live with to see that gender-based violence are not just things we can sweep away.
