With the theme “UNITE to End Violence Against Women and Girls,” the event showcased a powerful collective action in the fight against Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG).

From Lagos, Abuja, and Ibadan in Nigeria to Johannesburg in South Africa, London, Manchester, Frankfurt, and cities across the U.S., including Houston, New York, and Washington, D.C., the march drew diverse participants. Leaders, advocates, and survivors stood in solidarity to amplify the message of zero tolerance for gender-based violence (GBV).

 

In Lagos, the event commenced at the Lekki/Ikoyi Link Bridge, led by acting U.S. Consul General,JoEllen Gorg. According to her, “Preventing and responding to gender-based violence is central to the U.S. government’s commitment to human rights,” highlighting the U.S. partnership with WARIF in promoting gender equity.

The march also saw participation from notable figures such as the deputy British High Commissioner, Jonny Baxter, and the first lady of Ogun State, Mrs. Bamidele Abiodun, alongside government representatives and WARIF advocates.

 

WARIF’s founder, Dr. Kemi DaSilva Ibru, emphasized the march’s global impact, adding that, “With 11 cities across three continents participating, this year’s NTMarch exemplifies the unity and determination needed to end violence against women and girls globally. Together, we inspire hope and ignite change.”

 

Proceeds from the campaign support WARIF’s health initiatives, providing essential services like forensic medical care, psychosocial counseling, and welfare assistance for survivors of sexual violence. DaSilva Ibru therefore urged individuals and organizations worldwide to join the fight against GBV. “Together, we can create a world where women and girls live free from fear and violence,” she added.
