Abia First Lady, Mrs Priscilla Chidinma Otti, has commended the recent signing of a compact between the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) and Nigeria’s First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, aimed at dismantling harmful social norms and tackling gender-based violence (GBV).

Recall that the First Lady of Nigeria, Senator Oluremi Tinubu recently signed a compact with the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) during the UNFPA Gender-Based Violence and Harmful Social Norms Summit where all state First Ladies in the country signed the agreement to dismantle harmful social norms and tackle the widespread issue of gender-based violence.

Speaking to newsmen at the end of the event, Mrs Otti said, “This compact is a critical step in the right direction, providing us with a stronger platform to combat gender-based violence in our communities”, adding, “Through this partnership, we are empowered to break the silence, confront harmful practices, and create lasting change for women and girls across Nigeria”.

She expressed her gratitude to the First Lady of Nigeria for consistently championing the rights and welfare of women across the nation, recognizing her as a leading figure in the ongoing efforts to uplift women in Nigeria, and underscoring the significance of the unified action, while emphasising the reinvigorated and collective effort, supported by the UNFPA, to combat gender-based violence across Nigeria.

The compact signals a united front, with influential leaders across the nation prioritising the empowerment of women and girls to foster a safer and more equitable society for women and girls throughout Nigeria.
