In commemoration of the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, the Lagos State Ministry of Women Affairs and Poverty Alleviation (MWAPA) has hosted the Minister of Women Affairs, Hajia Imaani Ibrahim, for an impactful meeting with survivors of domestic and gender-based violence.


The event held recently at the premises of the Lagos State Waterways Authority with the theme: “Towards Beijing +30: Unite to End Violence Against Women and Girls”, highlighted the progress made in combating gender-based violence while also underscoring the urgent need for collective action to address the issue.


The Commissioner for Women Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, Hon. Bolaji Cecilia Dada, reaffirmed Lagos State’s commitment to eliminating violence against women and girls through policies, survivor support programmes, and public awareness campaigns. She emphasised that domestic and gender-based violence is a societal issue requiring the united effort of all stakeholders, including government agencies, civil society organizations, and community leaders.


Hon. Bolaji Dada applauded the resilience and courage of survivors, pledging continued support and advocacy for a violence-free society where women and girls can thrive.


Speaking at the event, the Minister for Women Affairs, Imaani Sulaiman Ibrahim, commended the Lagos State Government for its innovative empowerment programmes and effective strategies in addressing gender-based violence. 


She noted that Lagos serves as a benchmark for other states, highlighting the collaborative efforts of the Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency (DSVA) and other institutions under the leadership of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.


The Minister called for victims of domestic violence to break their silence and share their experiences, assuring them of support at both state and federal levels. She stressed that the economic empowerment of women is key to fostering resilience and ensuring their contribution to nation-building.


During her address, the Minister expressed her readiness to work closely with Lagos State to establish systems that encourage victims to report gender-based violence freely. She also promised to advocate for increased federal support for victims and the implementation of policies that promote the safety and well-being of women and girls nationwide.
