Everyone knows the reason behind the attack as political. It’s only God that will help and fight for Nigerian women bcos the intimidation is too much. They won’t allow us join politics with ease, they won’t allow this gender to breath well in Nigeria. See how teenagers are being used for rituals, sexual harassment everywhere bcos of lack and poverty in Nigeria. So shameful and sad but we shall overcome and win soon by God’s grace
