LAGOS SENSITISES MUSHIN LOCAL GOVERNMENT RESIDENTS ON SEXUAL, GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE
The Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency (DSVA) on Thursday held its fifth Local Government Town Hall meeting at Mushin Local Government Secretariat to sensitise residents on the rising cases of domestic and sexual violence across the State.

Speaking at the event with the theme: “It’s on us to End Sexual and Gender-Based Violence”, the Executive Secretary of DSVA, Mrs. Titilola Vivour-Adeniyi, said the forum was organised to increase awareness about domestic and sexual violence amongst members of the community, inform them of the provisions of the law and support services available for victims and survivors.

She stated that statistics in the past year showed a high prevalence of SGBV in Mushin Local Government Area, hence the need for all participants present to join hands with the Government in the fight against Domestic and Sexual Violence.
