Federal Government Unveils Its Sexual Offenders Register by mercyokoro24(f): 9:51pm On Nov 25, 2019
The Federal Government in collaboration with strategic partners has unveiled the Nigeria sexual offenders register.

The register which will have the pictures and all particulars of convicted sexual offenders in the country will also have a section that offenders who were never convicted will be displayed for an administrative fee.

Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo said that the exact number of cases of sexual abuse victims are difficult to confirm because when women come forward, they are called liars and troublemakers.


The Vice President who urged Nigerians to speak up or go to the police when they witness a sexual assault incident said that one of the steps to take in eradicating sexual abuse includes challenging degrading reference to women.

Prof. Osinbajo said this on Monday in Abuja, at the official launch of the sex offenders register by the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP) in collaboration with the partners.

He was represented by the Solicitor-General of the Federation and Permanent Secretary, Federal Ministry of Justice, Mr Dayo Apata.

Long overdue!

Those randy rams in our higher institutions that count female students like census, it is no longer business as usual.

The noose is tightening, zip up now and receive sense.

If you're not convicted you shouldn't be in the database. You essentially have a long list of accused people.

If they can enforce it. That would be great.

Without a standard means of background checks and reliable documentation, how’s it going to work?

I have no confidence in it. The register will still be filled with poor offenders while the rich offenders are allowed to go and continue their offence.

Welcome development,however if we had a national data base , things like this would have been easy to integrate, as all a person's records will be accessed in one click.
