UNILAG’s Anti-Rape Safety Tips for Female Students Spark Debate

UNILAG’s Anti-Rape Safety Tips for Female Students Spark Debate

The University of Lagos Student Affairs Division has circulated campus safety tips for female students aimed at preventing sexual harassment and rape. The advisories urge students to be cautious around men, avoid isolated places, reject unwanted pressure, be careful with drinks and intoxicants, and seek counselling when needed. Some of the wording, including advice on dressing and handshakes, may prompt debate about victim-blaming and the university’s approach to sexual-violence prevention.

Do these safety tips feel protective to students, or do they place too much responsibility on female students to avoid harm?

It is understandable that students want practical guidance, but the focus on women's behaviour is why this kind of advice sparks debate.

Safety reminders can still be useful, provided the university also makes it clear that harassment and rape are never the victim's fault.

UNILAG could pair the tips with clear reporting channels, confidential support, and visible action against anyone accused of harassment.
