Spiritual Implications Of Rape

My name is Maureen Alikor Oluwatobi, and what you are able to read are my personal convictions based on study, research, personal experiences and revelation. You are human and you have every right to disagree, but I will employ you to read till the end. I will start off by making a statement I’ve been making for sometime now. Rape is Spiritual, or better put, rape has a spiritual implication…

When we go through certain life experiences, and find the path to healing and total recovery, it is part of our life assignment to make the road accessible to others who may be on that journey too. How we choose to serve people may vary from person to person, but one thing is evident in my journey, I am a young child that has been marvelously helped and loved by God. After November 16, 2016, it…

A Rape-Free World: Attainable or Unlikely?

Do you believe a rape-free world is attainable?

This is one question I asked myself in November 2016 after I had just been raped by armed robbers who broke into my apartment somewhere in Port Harcourt, Nigeria, and I spent some time thinking about the question and trying to provide a very honest answer.

A rape-free world: attainable or unlikely?

The odds of answering this question from…

Rape is spiritual

One trending omission I constantly see when posts about rape and rapists are being made is the fact that we think rapist are usually sane people.

It is uncanny to expect a psychologically deranged man who is under the spell of evil to desist from raping people.

Rape and the various forms of sexual abuse are fruits of the perversion of sex(a good gift from God).

And this perversion is largely…

Letter to my son

Letter to my son

Dear Son,

I hope this letter meets you while you are still innocent and whole. Forgive the urgency in my voice, I am a mother with tales to tell and woes to fight and I pray evil escapes you, but while I pray, it would be irresponsible of me to leave you unaware of the devices of the enemy, one of which is the perversion of the beauty of sex as God, the Creator of the universe intended.

Dear Son,

A March for Ochan

A March for Ochan

The sad and ugly news that hit the internet is of little miss Ochanya Elizabeth who in 2013 went to stay with an aunt so she could go to school. She is 13 years old and has been a victim of sexual abuse since then. She was raped and sexually abused by Father and son since she was five years old.

  It’s sad and painful to read that,

Her Aunty’s son and her husband allegedly raped her repeatedly…

Men and the #MeToo mantra

Men and the #MeToo mantra

Hymar David started his address with this statement “Let us be honest”

As much as the “men get sexually abused too” narrative is valid, as much as the “abuse has no gender” statement is correct, if you sit down and really give it a thought, maybe you would understand why the female gender, and females especially, are pretty much exclusive about their campaign against rape. Maybe you would…

Men Can We Talk

Hello Mr Man; sorry, I mean Mr Rapist (that is your true name, isn’t it?), please, why on earth do you rape that girl or lady?

Why do you sexually abuse that minor? What explanation have you to offer? What justification for your act? And what kind of pleasure or fulfilment do you derive from it that satisfies your heart? Mr Man, what are your answers?

Rape and Sexual Abuse are two words like a…
