Women’s Groups Urge First Lady to Lead Campaign Against Prostitution and Brothels

Growing concerns over prostitution and the spread of brothels have sparked calls for stronger moral leadership in Nigeria. Advocates say Nigeria’s First Lady is well placed to champion a national movement. They believe her public support would raise awareness about exploitation, human trafficking and violence against women and girls. While Nigeria’s laws prohibit brothel-keeping and related offences, supporters argue that enforcement must be paired with education, skills training, job creation and rehabilitation programmes. They urge the First Lady to lend her voice to a campaign that promotes dignity, protects vulnerable women and girls, and underscores the need for safe, lawful means of livelihood.
