Men across various sectors are stepping up to combat Gender-Based Violence (GBV) as the Male Feminist Nigeria (MFN) Project officially launched in Pankshin, Plateau State on Tuesday. The stakeholder engagement meeting marked a pivotal step in expanding the MFN Project across North Central Nigeria. In his remarks, Communications Officer for the MFN Project, Akighir Caleb Akighir, highlighted the urgent need to challenge entrenched patriarchal ideologies. He noted that negative forms of masculinity not only harm women and girls, but also trap men within rigid and damaging gender roles. The launch in Pankshin represents a major milestone for the MFN Project, positioning the town as a vital hub in the growing movement for male-led advocacy against gender-based violence in Nigeria.
