\n\nA coalition of civil society organisations has called for justice following the alleged gang rape of a female student in Ijebu Ode, sparking outrage and renewed concerns over sexual violence. The groups, including the Safer Society for Children Foundation and the Elegant Nurses Forum, condemned the incident and demanded the immediate arrest and prosecution of all suspects involved. 
According to reports, the student was allegedly attacked by four individuals, with activists accusing authorities of mishandling the case and attempting to intimidate those seeking justice. The organisations stressed the need for a transparent investigation, protection for the victim, and accountability within law enforcement, warning that failure to act decisively could undermine public trust and embolden perpetrators. 
The case has reignited national conversations around gender-based violence in Nigeria, with advocacy groups urging stronger legal enforcement and community awareness to combat such crimes. Observers note that beyond securing justice for the victim, the outcome of the case could serve as a critical test of the country’s commitment to protecting women and ensuring perpetrators of sexual violence are held accountable.
