Wife of the Ooni of Ife, Olori Wuraola Ogunwusi has spoken out against the increasing rate of domestic violence in our society.
The Ife monarch talked on women speaking out more to help themselves and others facing the same predicament.
She wrote,
“Domestic abuse/emotional abuse are fast becoming a norm in our society. Decades ago it was okay for women to bear the burden and remain mute about the pains and effects of being victims. Not today.
The veil has fallen off and the shame of what the world will think has been replaced with solidarity, empathy, and unity. Together we can all lend a helping hand and support our sisters, mothers, aunts, friends in saying No to domestic violence and abuse. By remaining silent, we are doing a great disservice to victims and their families. #Saynotodomesticviolence #NoMore #SilenceisDeadly”
