She said the training was put together to help prosecutors understand best practices in prosecuting sexual and gender-based violence cases.

According to her, state and police prosecutors play a very important role in ensuring justice for domestic and sexual violence survivors.

She added that it is the reason that they need to have very deep knowledge about what domestic and sexual violence is and how to handle the cases.

She further said that would help prosecutors to the victims and survivors had gone or going through as a result of their experience.

One of the facilitators, Mrs Atinuke Odukoya, said the training was critical because it would help prosecutors to adopt the survivor centres approach, which would help victims and survivors to get justice.

She was optimistic that once victims and survivors begin to get justice, it will help to reduce cases of domestic and sexual violence.
