The immediate past Minister of Women Affairs, Barr. Uju Kennedy-Ohaneye, has announced that she appeared in court to represent a case involving a 5-year-old girl who was allegedly sexually abused by her class teacher.
This comes a month after she was sacked by President Bola Tinubu.
Kennedy-Ohaneye was among four ministers removed from office in a major cabinet reshuffle last month.
In a post on X on Monday, November 25, 2024, the lawyer reiterated her commitment to fighting for a better society and eradicating all forms of abuse against vulnerable Nigerians, including children.
“I remain committed to fighting for a better society. My passion for justice remains unwavering, and I will not tolerate any form of abuse, especially against vulnerable Nigerians, including children,” she wrote.
“Today, I represented a heart-wrenching case involving a 5-year-Old girl who was sexually abused by her class teacher. This incident strengthens my resolve to combat such heinous crimes.
“To those who would dare perpetrate such atrocities, let this serve as a warning. I will pursue justice relentlessly in my capacity.”
