In Nigeria, where sexual abuse and harassment are prevalent, women are turning to martial arts for self-defense. A 2013 NOI Polls report indicated that 30% of Nigerians know a rape victim, with many cases unreported due to stigma. John Anene, a black belt martial artist, teaches women practical defense techniques, emphasizing the importance of confidence and awareness. Participants like Temitope Akinyomi and Igbinoba Osare express the empowerment they feel from learning to defend themselves. The training also includes advice on escaping attackers.
