My uncle raped me and I couldn’t tell my mom - Toyin Lawani, Elvina Ibru and others on sexual abuse
These are not just stories.
They are testaments. From people who have lived through it. And survived.
One lost her innocence to someone in the same house.
One tried to run but was pulled back by her braids.
One got pregnant and was taken to Ibadan for an abortion at five months.
One was told to stay quiet because “things like this happen.”
One was asked by a nurse what she was wearing.
One lost childhood friends because people believed she seduced her stepfather.
They shared what it cost them.
One said she would never sleep over at a poor man’s house again.
One said she lost everything — her health, her education, her relationships and almost took her life.
This week on WithChude, we hold space for their truth.
