after suffering complications from
0:11
prolonged sexual abuse allegedly
0:14
committed by university lecturer Andrew
0:16
Abuja and his son Victor in Benway
0:19
state. Her tragic death triggered a wave
0:23
of anger across the country. But years
0:25
later, the legal process has dragged on
0:28
with no clear resolution, sparking fresh
0:31
outrage and renewed calls for justice.

This week, civil society groups,
0:38
activists, and citizens revive the
0:40
campaign with protest, social media
0:43
hashtags, and public appeals, saying
0:45
OA's story must not fade into silence.
0:48
They're calling on the judiciary and
0:50
relevant authorities to ensure justice
0:52
is served and to prioritize the
0:54
protection of young girls from abuse and
0:59
Justice delayed is justice denied. And

for many Nigerians, Arena's voice still
1:04
cries out for accountability. Reported
