If the husband forces her and the wife reports him, we will not charge him for rape but for sexual assault by penetration, and the punishment is life imprisonment,\u201d he said.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">The DPP urged women experiencing any form of domestic or sexual violence to report such incidents to the Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency for appropriate legal action.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">He stressed the importance of speaking out against domestic and sexual violence, particularly where victims may be reluctant to report abuse because of their marital or family circumstances.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">The development comes against the backdrop of a longstanding cultural debate in Nigeria over the concept of marital rape.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0For years, many men have pushed back against the idea, arguing that a woman should be available whenever her husband desires sex and dismissing the concept as foreign, un-African or a product of \u201canarchist feminism.\u201d<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Some have even put the argument bluntly: \u201cA wife I properly married, denying me sex? That will be unheard of!\u201d<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Another had insisted that \u201cit is un-African and should not be allowed to fly.\u201d<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">But the latest position from the Lagos State DPP could put that deeply rooted belief to a serious test.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0The warning that a husband who forces his wife into sex without her consent could face life imprisonment raises a question that goes beyond the courtroom: will the message resonate across the country?<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Will men who have traditionally regarded sex as an unquestionable right within marriage push back? Will cultural and religious arguments be deployed against the emerging legal interpretation of consent within marriage?<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">The debate also raises a broader question about the place of culture and tradition where they appear to conflict with the law and the rights of individuals within marriage.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">For now, there are no easy answers. But as the debate spreads beyond Lagos, one thing is certain: the age-old assumption that marriage automatically confers sexual entitlement on a husband is facing one of its most serious challenges yet.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">Time will tell whether the law or patriarchy, will have the final say.<\/div>\n<div id=\"yiv6462564667ymail_android_signature\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Oscar Okhifo The Lagos State Government has warned that a husband who forces his wife to have sex without her consent could face life imprisonment, in a position that&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":105624,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-129249","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
