‘These policemen are animals’ – Nigerians react as 70 women are arrested and raped in Abuja

Nigerians have taken to social media to register their displeasure over the recent arrest of 70 women in Abuja for prostitution.

According to the reports, the said women were also raped by the policemen who used pure water nylons as condoms.

Many Nigerians have now taken to Twitter to register their pain and displeasure at such an evil act.

A Twitter user wrote;

On #AbujaPoliceRaidonWomen these animals need to be apprehended and made to pay for this unimaginable savagery. This is how SARS started going after “supposed” criminals & we folded our arms till they themselves became full blown kidnappers…now they’re going after young ladies.

Read some of the reactions below;

Then these women were asked to pay N5k or surrender to being raped. According to DNF in a small bacha behind utako police station, these bastards used pure water satchets as condoms. These women were denied legal representation, all weekend.

If you’re going to arrest a woman for prostitution why let the man go free? Why focus on supply rather than the ostensible demand?

If we’re so concerned about morality then we should ask ourselves why people go to prostitutes in the first place? #AbujaPoliceRaidonWomen

I don’t care who the women were and what they did. They deserve to be treated as humans beings and the offenders deserve to be punished. We all need justice. #AbujaPoliceRaidonWomen

Lagos Twitter women, I urge you all to please lend your voices to this #AbujaPoliceRaidonWomen The next plausible city to test run this is Lagos. They already bar you from certain public places if you don’t have a male escort. How long before you’re picked up outside quilox???

Women are being stripped of their rights by the very entities that are supposed to protect them. The entire process from the raids to the prosecutions has been violence and one violation after another. This is not acceptable and these raids are illegal. #AbujaPoliceRaidonWomen

The trauma of rape aside, a lot of these men have diseases these women cannot afford to treat after this ordeal. Meanwhile healthcare is as good as…
sigh. Please make it stop. #AbujaPoliceRaidonWomen

At this point, can we all just report Yomi Shogunle’s account, so he can shut up. It’s bad enough he’s incompetent for his role, it’s even worse we get to hear his bullshit. #AbujaPoliceRaidonWomen #SayHerNameNigeria
