With the ongoing injustice in Nigeria, it is important I share this with you guys on this platform (Wattpad) to spread awareness.
Wattpad is a platform popularly known for feeding on a lot of young girls' romantic fantasies, but it's also important for these girls to be reminded of the harsh realities in the world out there. Not everything is sunshine and flowers like a lot of the books you read here. Not every perfect man or boy is as perfect as you think. Not every man or boy's house you should sleep over in. Bad boys are bad boys, period. Don't be fooled by the "good girl, bad boy" stories. Getting drunk in front of your crush is not always cute, in fact it's very dangerous.
Rape is real. Rape can happen anywhere. Rape can happen to anybody (no matter the gender). Rape can come from anybody (no matter the gender), even the ones you trust the most.
It's important we spread more light to these real issues on here. Writers, we need more stories that speak on reality. You never know who you might be saving with that one chapter or short story you publish here on Wattpad.
This is also one of the reasons why I wrote this book, The Second Path (fka Kauna). To spread awareness and to speak up for women who have been silenced for years.

To all those who have gone through one form of abuse or the other, it's important to speak to someone. A friend, a parent, a teacher, or anyone out there, even God Himself (tell Him exactly how you feel). I understand how difficult and scary it is to speak up. In fact, it feels like it's the most impossible thing to do, especially if you've been abused by someone important in your life. But I promise you, there is something powerful about speaking out that nobody tells you about.
