The major market in Yaba is famous not only for the wares sold there but for the level of sexual harassment that goes down on a daily basis.
Walking through Yaba market is an extreme sport for women as they have to deal with strange men, mostly market traders, who touch them indiscriminately, tug at their clothes and ridicule them when they complain.
A group of women decided to bring awareness to the act by protesting right in the market but the reactions from these men shows the situation may not be changing anytime soon.
