The Inspector-General of Police, Solomon Arase, has vowed to persecute perpetrators of gender-based violence.
Arase spoke when a delegate from the Federal Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Development led by the Permanent Secretary, Dr. Ezekiel Oyemomi, visited him in Abuja.
The visit aimed at soliciting police support for the prevention of crimes against women and other vulnerable persons.
According to a statement issued by the Force Spokesperson, Olabisi Kolawole, the IGP assured the ministry of his determination to clampdown on perpetrators of violent crimes and violence on women.
The IGP noted that the Nigeria Police Force under his watch is gender sensitive and committed to ensure that perpetrators of gender based violence refrain from it or face the wrath of the law.
