The Technical Working Group, (TWG) has lamented on the absence of available data on people that has suffered from Sexual and Gender Based Violence in Kogi State.

In her address, the President, Medical Women Association of Nigeria, (MWAN) Kogi State Chapter Ibiyeye Taiye opined that, data collation is always an issue for documentation due to paucity of funds.

She suggested the employment of research assistance to reduce the burden of data collection and input as it concerns Sexual and Gender Based Violence in Kogi State

According to her, adding data collection to one work load takes a lot of commitment to achieve desirable result.

On his part, the Chairperson, Kogi Non-Governmental Organization Network, (KONGONET) Amb. Idris Ozovehe Muraina drew the attention of the group at the spate people with disabilities are suffering from Sexual and Gender Based Violence in the State.

He recall what happened in the Central part of Kogi State were a suspect allegedly killed his wife who has disabilities.

“People with disabilities are suffering alot as a result of Gender Based Violence. The incident that happened recently in Kogi Central is one out of many. It is important for us to put our heads together to reduce this negative trend” he stated.

Muraina, however, called for the sensitization of people and capacity building across the 21 Local Government Area of Kogi State on the right of people with disabilities since they are also victim of Gender Based Violence in the State.
