3. He alleged that some federal legislatures were given monies in US dollars to ensure the passage of this bill.
4.He also opined that the bill (VAPP BILL) which IMO state house of Assembly wants to domesticate is against the "PRO-LIFE",
Our attention has been drawn to a misleading live radio program by one Dr. Philip Njemanze, on @ZandersFmOwerri where he stated thus;
1. The VAPP bill was sponsored by the western country,
2. Former President (Goodluck Jonathan) was forced to sign the bill into an ACT in 2015,
Violence Against Persons Prohibition (VAPP) bill seeks to strengthen protection laws.
This bill seeks to prohibit certain hitherto practices and abuses that has been infringing on the rights of mostly women and girls in our society.
