PRESS STATEMENT
OSIWA DONATES AMBULANCE, MEDICAL CONSUMABLES TO PLATEAU STATE
The Open Society Initiative for West Africa (OSIWA) has donated an ambulance and medical consumables to Plateau State Government to assist in the fight against COVID-19.
Just a reminder that we went from a hashtag (#StopAbujaPoliceRaidsOnWomen) to street protests, to institutional response from government and now the National Human Rights Commission has established a panel to investigate the complaints. Weldone everyone!
Stop the violence. End impunity against women everywhere. Stop the raids.
#AbujaPoliceRaidOnWomen
Friday the 10th of May 2019
Time: 9am
Venue: Eagle Square (Car Park Entrance)
Our people die everyday and nobody is in detention for these acts of violence but our security personnel raided our streets, arresting and harassing innocent women rather than fight insecurity. We refuse to stay silent over the police raid on Abuja women.
#AbujaPoliceRaidonWomen
On Friday 10th May 2019, we shall march in Abuja to protest the abuse, extortion and rape of our women by Abuja Environmental Authority and other security agencies. March starts from Eagle Square. Bring your friends for just 2 hours. #AbujaPoliceRaidonWomen@ChiomaChuka@Chxta
Today we kick off a 2-Day consultative meeting on sexual and gender based violence as we prepare to launch a regional advocacy campaign! #SGBVinWA#EverybodysBuiness
