Singer Burna Boy has called for justice for victims of police brutality and also rape across the world.
The singer stated this as the world took to social media with the hashtag #blacktuesday.
Uwaila Omozuwa, a 100 level student of Microbiology at the University of Benin was raped and bashed with a fire extinguisher in the head leading to her death.
This sparked outraged from Nigerians who demanded justice for the lady and others of her kind.
Lending his voice, Burna Boy wrote: “Rape and racial injustice are crimes against humanity, they are vicious, insidious and violent acts that no human should commit or commend.
“The stance on rape should be linear and final, there should be no grey areas, no “buts”, only that the perpetrator(s) of the act is to blame and the victim completely blameless.
“From now on, men and women alike need to be educated. Men need to be taught the concept of consent, we need to teach them empathy and compassion. We need to teach men that a woman’s body is hers and hers alone. We need to end stigmatisation and victimization of rape victims, it must STOP.
“Black people deserve and require more than we’re currently getting! I implore you all to get involved, no contribution is too small, no platform is too small #nojusticenopeace #justiceforgeorgefloyd #justiceforuwa #stoprapeculture #justicefortina #stoppolicebrutality #blackouttuesday”
