Civic Groups Demand Immediate Release Of Nigerian Female Soldier Detained For Exposing Sexual Harassment By Senior Officers
Two civil society organisations - Rule of Law and Accountability Advocacy Center (RULAAC) and Civil Rights Realisation and Advancement Network (CRRAN) - have called for the immediate release of detained Corporal Ruth Ogunleye who accused some senior army officers of sexual harassment. The groups in a joint statement signed by RULAAC Executive Director, Okechuwu Nwanguma and CRRAN President, Olu Omotayo Esq, faulted the claim by the Nigerian Army that the female soldier had not officially exhausted the available institutionalised channels before going on the social media.
