She reiterated the commitment of the state governmen to eliminate all forms of abuse and violence against women, girls, children and persons with disabilities.

Mrs. Obaseki said the special courts would give speedy justice to victims of gender based violence. She also noted that special Judges will be assigned to the special courts.

The Edo State Governor, Mr. Godwin Obaseki, added that the state signed the Violence Against Persons Prohibition (VAPP) Bill into law to show its commitment towards the fight against gender-based violence.

His words: “We also launched a sexual offenders’ register, which serves as a tool to shame all persons who have been convicted in gender-based violence. We have linked our register with the national register. We are driven by the need to ensure that those who perpetrate gender-based violence are apprehended and made to face justice strictly”, he said.
