“We also want to appeal to the conscience of our youths to abstain from any form of aggression against their fellow youths especially the tender females.”

With chants of ‘Say no to Rape’ and ‘Justice for Uwa’, protesters, including students of the University of Benin , activists and concerned individuals yesterday stormed the headquarters of the state police command in Edo State demanding justice for Vera Uwaila Omozuwa.

Uwaila, a 100-level student of the Department of Microbiology in UNIBEN was reported to have been raped and killed by some hoodlums inside a church where she went to read at the Ikpoba Hill area of Benin City, the Edo State Capital. This had sparked outrage with #JusticeForUwa dominating social media trend since Sunday.

The Deputy Commissioner of Police, Operations, Ayoola Ajala, who received the protesters, assured them that investigations have commenced and arrests have already been made in connection to Uwa’s murder. He also debunked allegations that the police station where the matter was reported to refused to look into the incident for lack of funding.

The Niger Delta Students’ Union Government has condemned the brutal rape and murder of its female member, Miss Vera Uwaila Omozuwa. The Senate President of NDSUG, Jimmy Success, in a statement in Port Harcourt, called on the school management and the security agencies to swiftly investigate the tragedy and bring the perpetrators to justice.

Nigerians demand justice for female student murdered inside churchNigerians, outraged by the murder of a female university student inside a church in Edo State, are demanding the killers be brought to justice. Isn't it obvious that those dressing half-naked are the victims of rape? It is true rape is really bad and it's perpetrators are inhuman, but is equally important for women to dress decently to avoid becoming preys to such predators. Did anyone witness the rape? Did she inform the police or the 🏥 that she was raped? We jump to conclusions in Nigeria with facts. I hate rapist. However, situations like this require evidence.
