A thread of Mental Health related Polls for Nigerians in Nigeria Only (like this thread for reference as we will keep adding questions to it over the year), Please help us RT across your networks! #PollTime
1. Have you ever experienced mental health issues?
@shannonrwatts The #1 killer of women 18-24 in this country is not cancer, car accidents, or caravans. It is men, their boyfriends or husbands nearly all the time! It is past time for women to recognize and use their power. We make up 52% of the country yet only have 25% women in Congress!
January:
Utah man, 27, threatened mass shooting because he was a virgin and had never dated
Florida man, 21, executed five women in a bank
New Jersey man, 39, opened fire at UPS and took two women hostage
Louisiana man, 21, fatally shot girlfriend, parents and three others
Pennsylvania man, 21, fatally shot 3 men and injured an ex-girlfriend before shooting himself.
California man, 48, ambushed and fatally shot a woman officer as she adjudicated a traffic accident.
Pennsylvania man, 27, bludgeoned, stabbed and shot a woman who broke up with him.
The gist of the story & clear intent to work to pre-determined outcome in the CJN #Onnoghen matter is buried in dates. The petition against CJN Onnoghen was dated 7 January. It was actually stamped into the office of the Chairman of the Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB) on 9 January
The 21-year-old gunman who took over a SunTrust Bank in Florida made five women lie down on the floor before shooting them in the head. Police said there's no indication the gunman intended to rob the bank, nor is he connected to the victims. #flapol https://t.co/djCDCFA5Sm
5 women were executed in a bank by a total (male) stranger and it didn't even register I'm the news because both gun violence and misogynistic violence have become so commonplace.
Can we move on from this mild surprise (with some pearl clutching potential) to absolute rage, disgust, revulsion, please?
It’s 2019. Y’all have had enough time 🙄
In a country in which higher-ups always find new ways to steal public money & get away with it, I'll not cry about poor ppl getting a bit of public money but the controversy over #TraderMoni is unavoidable because of both the timing & manner it's been done

Generally speaking, when privileged people criticize marginalized people, the goal is persecution.

Fairness =/= persecution
Get it?

Trump's #GlobalGagRule =
A threat to women's health
No funding for care like contraception, maternal health, and HIV prevention and treatment
A setback to sexual and reproductive health and rights for women around the 🌎
The onus is on you to always SEEK consent. You perpetuate rape culture by pretending that a clear communication of no is the only way to withdraw consent.
This is a myth that needs to end right now. The signs are always there. If you care about consent you’d always ask.
