said it received 524 complaints of sexual and gender-based assault against women from Kaduna State alone, in 2021.
Mr Gwar claimed that out of the 524 complaints received in 2021, 224 are mostly about domestic violence against women, even though there are other types of violence against women and girls. According to him, the commission not only receives complaints but also mediates in problems involving couples and families.
Mr Gwar called for more grassroots sensitisation for people to become more aware of the importance of protecting and enforcing their rights, as well as the consequences and punishments awaiting any perpetrators.
