The current VAPP Act 2015 is sufficient. What it requires is an amendment, not a repeal as more stakeholders reject Senator’s Jibrin Isah’s bill to repeal the VAPP Act in the FCT.
In today’s digital age, where online platforms dominate our lives, a sinister shadow looms large: the escalating threat of misogyny and online gender-based violence (OGBV).
