“Make sure you don’t sleep,” one trafficker belted out. “If you sleep, you fall off. And if you fall off, you die!”

If a friend tells you they’re being abused, don’t say “Why don’t you just leave?”
Say:
“I believe you”, “It’s not your fault”, “I’m here. What do you need?”
Leaving is not always easy and is often the most dangerous time. Support first, advice later. #enddomesticviolence

Domestic violence doesn’t always start with a slap or look the same. It can start with a partner:
- who asks “who were you talking to”?
- checks your phone
- controls your money
- cuts you off from friends & family

None of this is love. Share this with someone who needs it

Hopefully this is big step in helping the victim start to heal

I spoke with five divorcees from different parts of Northern Nigeria about the challenges that come with being divorced and all of them had their fair share of trouble. This has brought me to the conclusion that marriage and divorce are harder than they should be.

"At twelve, I learnt that women traded their happiness for a reputation only marriage could give. My aunt was a victim of domestic violence and I was bold enough to tell her to leave”

Today is a good day to support NGOs that provide critical services to vulnerable women.
Corporate giving & individual giving make it possible for these organisations to be able to provide much needed services to women, especially survivors of GBV
