The Edo State Governor, Mr. Godwin Obaseki, has signed the Violence Against Persons (VAP) Bill into law, to address all forms of violence and protect vulnerable members of the society.

Obaseki, who
signed the bill in Government House, Benin City, on Tuesday, said he was
aware that the bill touches on fundamental practices among the people,
assuring that he was not only signing the bill as a formality, but will
ensure it is implemented to the letter.

“We will not stop here by
just signing the bill into law, but will commence the much difficult
work of implementing it to the letter. It must be noted that this bill
has been in consideration for over six to eight years but the time has
come for us to have a law like this VAP Law, to protect the most
vulnerable and weak in our society.
