Nigeria Ranked As The 9th Most Dangerous Country For Women By Thomson Reuters by 6Ebisco: 1:38pm On Jun 28, 2018
Nigeria has been named the ninth most dangerous country for women in the latest report released by Thomson Reuters Foundation, yesterday.


Nigeria made the list alongside India, which tops the list, DR Congo, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, and Somalia.


“NIGERIA – Ranked as ninth, with human rights groups accusing the country’s military of torture, rape and killing civilians during a nine-year fight against Boko Haram militants. Nigeria was named fourth most dangerous country along with Russia when it came to human trafficking. It listed sixth worst on the risks women face from traditional practices,” the report stated.


Other countries polled to have bad records in the treatment of women included the United States of America, which came last on the list, Syria, Pakistan, and Yemen. Between March 26 and May 4, 2018, the Thomson Reuters Foundation said it surveyed 548 experts on women’s issues across the globe, including academics, health workers, policymakers, and NGO workers.


The respondents were reportedly asked to consider the following parameters: healthcare, cultural practices, discrimination, sexual violence, non-sexual violence, and human trafficking. While Nigeria didn’t rank in healthcare, discrimination, and non-sexual violence, Nigeria ranked sixth for (cultural) practices that are harmful to women, like acid attacks, female genital mutilation, child marriage, forced marriage, stoning, physical abuse or mutilation as a form of punishment/retribution and female infanticide.


In cases of sexual violence, Nigeria is ranked fourth on the poll, with examples of rape as a weapon of war, domestic rape, rape by a stranger, lack of access to justice in rape cases.

Why am I not suprised?
Domestic Violence against women.
Rape.
Child abuse.
Child marriage.
Widows are treated awfully. Shaved head. Corpse water drinking.
Single mothers are treated like shit.
Women are coerced into being door mats with No opinions whatsoever.
When a woman strives hard to be successful, she must be sucking diick.
Bride price has now transformed into price tags on women. Awon "I paid[Insert Amount] on your head, you must worship me".


I'm shocked we didn't make NO1.

Sexists research. It is the most dangerous country for every soul living in it. Infact, an objective and unbiased research would show more deaths of men and children than women. Rubbish !

I have been saying it all this while and some boys will think I am been too harsh on the opposite sex.
The rate at which they abuse females in this part of the world is very worrisome..
They abuse, maltreat, rape, molest, beat, batter etc. God will save us from this specie of hono sapiens.

But on a serious note, the report is true. So many rape cases go unreported. Girls being traumatized from early on. . . Very sad.
