Viola Philip of Gender and Social development says they reported more than100 cases of gender-based violence in the Ghazal State, Radio Voice of Hope reports.
The government has a great role to play in ending violence against women, says Nwoane Abahor of UNMISS.
Having more women educated and aware of all sorts of violence is the best way to end gender-based violence, believes Zachariah Joseph, Acting Governor.
The speakers were talking during a campaign on gender-based violence on Wednesday in Wau under the theme: ‘Families make education save for all girls’.
