Anambra State Governor Charles Soludo has disclosed that the parents of the young lady who was brutally assaulted during her National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) program initially resisted pursuing prosecution against the perpetrators. Governor Soludo’s statement sheds light on the complex emotional and social pressures facing victims’ families in such cases.
Despite the initial reluctance, authorities, along with the state government, insisted on justice being served to deter impunity and protect future corps members. The case has drawn significant public attention, sparking calls for stronger protection measures for NYSC participants and greater support for victims of violence.
Governor Soludo reiterated the government’s commitment to ensuring the safety of all corps members in Anambra, promising stricter enforcement of laws and collaboration with security agencies to prevent such incidents going forward.
