Men urged to stand against GBV

The country continues to battle against GBV incidences which are currently on the rise. When delivering the State of the Nation Address (SONA) on Monday, the President said he was deeply concerned about the trend of GBV, which is mostly directed to women and children by men, who are expected to protect and love them hence urging men to take the lead in ending violence meted out against women and children.

“Let us learn to amicably resolve our differences with our loved ones. The building of police stations or child friendly centres as established in several parts of this country cannot on its own reduce the GBV incidences. To address these issues, we need our culture, our values and faithfulness before God. Re tlhokana le poifo Modimo, we need to fear God,” he said.
