Bloggers, Media House Share The Photos Of The Rapist Not The 10 Month Old Baby - Divaviva111.com
There is nothing funny about rape. Perhaps because it had not happened to people close to you, so you can joke about it. But remember what goes around, still comes back around. Sadly we live in a permissive, judgmental society where victims of rape are stigmatized. Many girls and boys have been raped, stigmatized and traumatized. Imagine a wife who is raped and the husband throws her out of his house and marries another? What a weak society. What a weak law we have here in Nigeria.
Most at times DV111 pixelizes the faces of victims or alleged crime offenders, but some other bloggers and the media houses share their faces to the world and worse still the social media will go berserk and share. Sometimes these people whose faces are online for one crime or the other may be innocent. however, those that have been caught red handed just like the case of this case of the horrific rape of a 6 month old girl and the rape of 2 preteen boys, one of which is dead now has necessitated this call.
While the stigmatization of rape is still in force. I appeal to Nigerians to stop sharing the pictures of that young lad. Her family is already broken. Share the rapist not the victim of rape.
Have a blessed week ahead.
