Rape on the increase

There is no denying that the incidence of rape is on the increase across the country. Everyday children under the ages five and ten month are being raped by adults above thirty years and more.

I think this issue is becoming very rampant and urgent action on the part of ministries, NGOs and women’s organizations is needed as children are the future of this country.  Allowing their future to be tampered with is tantamount to destroying this country’s future. This explains why severe penalties must be recommended for the perpetrators.

One can imagine the pain a suckling baby suffers after being raped by a thirty year old man. What pleasure can such a man derive from such a terribly act?  The result is nothing!

But the negative side of it is the damage inflicted on our children human assets, the future leaders of this country.

I am calling on women’s organizations to advocate for the protection of our children so that the raping of our young girls and children is stopped!

  • Dear Editor,
    This is digusting, your article about older men raping babies(poor Angels) that are still breast feeding is absurb… The government need to step in and send them to life time imprisonment… they should be labelled as “sex offenders” with their names and pictures posted all over there communities…. No Woman should be subjected to such Humilation, which will only traumatize them for years to come……SHAME ON YOU MEN……
