Popular actress, Kate Henshaw, has shared the reason she believes women must go for self-defence classes.
According to the movie star, it will teach women how to defend themselves against domestic violence and killings from the opposite gender.
The actress also advised state governments across Nigeria to take the menace of sexual and domestic violence seriously, citing the Lagos State Government as an example to be emulated.
The actress said, “We all just have to be careful, and to the women who are mostly the victims, I would say, we have to be careful and take self-defence classes if possible so they can protect themselves.
“I would want other states to take on the template that Lagos State has set with regards to sexual violence. They just launched an app where you can report incidences incognito through a digital platform which is very good. I enjoin other states to follow that template and even do better to make sure that they protect women, and of course the men too. I don’t understand what is happening in society these days. It just feels like it’s not ours any longer.”
