About the Journal

Recent waves of sex crimes in Nigeria have drawn long overdue public attention to them and ignited debate on the causes, spread and solutions. Individual states have taken the initiatives to strengthen or enact new laws against sex crimes, including chemical castration (Kaduna State) and the death penalty (Zamfara State) as punishments for convicted rapists and child sex offenders, respectively.
