God!! God!!!
Do you understand how much happened to those ladies! It was more than the assault, it was the mob!!!!
They were mobbed like criminals!!!
Pure beastial vigor unleashed on them, in droves!
Can you even picture the horror???
A hand reaches for your breast. You try to swat it away, but two more are already there. You realize you can’t fight them all, so you stop attacking and go into a desperate, frantic defense. You cross your arms tightly over your chest, trying to shield your own body from a drive of invaders. You are a fortress under siege.
But that does nothing.
Five more pairs of hands reach to rip your top. Three more are tugging at your bra, the straps digging into your shoulders. They are prying at your locked arms, trying to force your chest open, while the rest of the mob is pushing and pulling you in a dozen different directions.
You are fighting to keep your bra on, for your dignity.
Your flight response is screaming. Your legs are making a run for it even before your brain can process the path - this is pure survival now. Dignity has taken a back seat. You leap, trying to break free, but they pull. You feel your top give way, the fabric shredding, and suddenly your breasts are feeling the cool evening breeze... exposed to the eyes of these rabid drove.
You are using every ounce of feminine strength, against all these pure masculine energy fueled by the frenzy of a mob and lust… just to keep your arms wrapped around yourself. You’re trying to keep your balance things are happening faster than you can process. You realize you’re losing, so you drop. You collapse into a fetal position on the ground, trying to become as physically small as possible. To disappear.
But before you even hit the ground, hands grab the waistband of your jeans. The fabric is trapped between their grip and your skin. They pull. You feel the denim and the lace of your underwear fold into a brutal, agonizing wedgie between the lips of your vagina - the searing burn of the friction as they tug.
And you’re confused because you didn’t steal, you did kill… you were just a woman, commuting.
I didn’t censor my words because I want it to read as uncomfortable as possible.
Because there is not a single place on earth, in all of human history, where a man has faced this type of coordinated, ritualized horror from a mob of women.
Women get raped for “culture”, they get raped as a “punishment”, they get raped for revenge, they get raped for “duty”, they get raped for “rituals”, they get raped for looking too good, for dressing too scanty, “asking for it”, for being a tease, for getting in a room with a man, for being a toddler, for being an old woman in her 70s, for daring to commute in a BRT, for daring to breathe…
God!!!!
When you go to your worship center, and your leaders are calling feminists wicked, if you like, laugh.
Laugh with spiritual leaders who show up everywhere with armed security. While you have no one to defend you.
The OZORO FESTIVAL is a 7-day rape festival. Yes, 7 days of raping women.
If you like, keep laughing with people who will never feel or experience your pain.
You are not doing the feminists. You are doing yourself. Women are not safe in the market, on the streets, at home, at work, or in worship centers. Yet you are laughing at what Mama and Papa said.
Mama and Papa have paid security.
When they say “stop raping women”, olori-ebis will rear their heads to start asking “what of false accusers?”. Now there’s a whole ass festival dedicated to raping women, with videos circulating, you’re quiet because you’re still investigating the videos with forensics abi?
You cannot tackle false rape accusers without first tackling rape. You must be loud in your condemnation of rape before you can begin to face false rape accusers.
But you’re a fool.
I don’t know 🤷 how 9-5 got a bad pr. When did labor become a shameful thing! Or working for people. You see a man genuinely striving, and you are comparing him to Tik tokers that dance for money. We actually need more people to talk. The comments I see on some of these posts?bad
This is why I’ve always said that International Women’s Day is not a holiday to be celebrated or reduced to tokenism. It's a reminder.
Stop handing out cakes and party packs in the office while ignoring issues like workplace harassment, unequal pay, or systemic discrimination.
Senator Akpabio presided over a matter where he was the accused person. This is a fundamental breach of the principle of fair hearing.
The purported suspension of Senator Natasha is lacking of due process and the act itself is illegal. The Senate lacks the powers to suspend her
Sexual abuse,sexual harassment, abuse of power specifically against women and silencing of women are rife in Nigeria.
A lady tells an Okada man to stop touching her, next thing he calls her Ashawo, same thing in the market.
A man rapes her and you ask “what was she wearing?”
If you think this matter is about, “where is the evidence?,” you are a fool. Have you seen how she’s being treated for just coming forward? This makes victims out there find it hard to speak up. You think it doesn’t concern you? Well, it will go round one way or the other.

On March 15th, I’ll be attempting to break the Guinness World Record for the “Fastest Time to Visit All Seven Continents” - one of 2 records this month.
This is the scariest tweet I’ve ever written, but it makes sense because it’s about the scariest thing I’ve ever had to do…
