Afrobeats star Simi has taken to social media to cry out over the lack of safety for women in Nigeria.
Following several recent reports of s3xual violence, the mother of one stated that it is time for the authorities and citizens to take a final stand against perpetrators.
Simi dismissed the idea that people should stay quiet about r*pe just because some people tell lies. While she agrees liars should face consequences, she says the priority must be the millions of real victims.
She challenged men to talk to their sisters, wives, and female friends, asserting that they would discover how widespread the problem of assault really is.
She criticized the habit of some men treating assault as "vibes" and encouraged them to stop being silent when their friends misbehave.
Her post was a desperate call for an end to the "epidemic" of r*pe and a demand for the government to implement capital punishment for offenders.
