The Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, on Tuesday, unveiled a 100-bed space capacity centre facility for survivors of gender-based violence in the state.
“We hope that the facility, which provides accommodation, meeting rooms and others are necessary to ensure that women are safe and are offered counselling, psychosocial and legal support.
“With the level of support we are getting from our partners, the centre will surely become a reference point for care for abused women in Nigeria in the near future.” Danjuma said with the centre, it was expected that women who suffer abuse would be confident to come for help and also receive the necessary assistance they needed for redress.
