Ways to Avoid Getting Raped in Kogi State University

 Do you have fears that you may get raped while in Kogi state university ? Here are some very helpful pointers you can follow if you want to really stay safe.
1 Be very cautious of who you place your
trust in. Most victims of rape knew the perpetrator prior to the attack. Rapists are classmates, roommates, friends of friends -people who act ‘nice’ in order to more easily win your trust. A friend of a friend is still a stranger to you. Do not feel obligated to spend time with someone because they are acquainted with someone that you know.
2 Learn how to defend yourself from an attack.
Take a self defense course,martial arts, or boxing. Carry pepper spray. When in public, walk confidently and purposefully. Do not act distracted or uncertain. Do not walk around in public chatting on a phone or texting. If you exercise outdoors, do not wear headphones. Vary your routine.

3 Don’t be afraid to be assertive with any
individual who’s disregarding your requests
to be left alone. This specifically includes men who won’t take “no” for an answer if you turn them down for dates, and men who won’t stop kissing/touching you after you have asked them to.
4 Never be alone with or date any person who
attempts to coerce you into activities that
you are uncomfortable doing, whether it’s
drug, alcohol or sexually oriented. Never go to
a secondary location with such a person.
5 Always keep your door locked,
even if it’s just to go to the bathroom/
showers.
6 Be cautious about whom you invite into your
room. Leave the door fully or partially open if you have visitors.
7. When entering your lodge, do
not allow individuals who don’t reside there
to follow in behind you — allow the lodge
resident who they are visiting to let them in.
Even if you know the individual, it’s safer for everyone that they be escorted into the lodge by the person they came to see.
8 Keep your contact information — this
includes your hostel/Lodge building and your
room number — as private as possible.
9 Learn about the effects of date rape drugs
and alcohol. Alcohol and/or drug use has a high
correlation to rape on college campuses. Victims of sexual abuse are more likely to develop issues with drugs and/or alcohol.
10 Go on group dates instead of being alone
with your date until you know him better.
Always let a friend know who you are dating and
where you will be with him. On initial dates, have a friend call or text to check on you. If you are
uncomfortable during the date, make an excuse about an emergency to leave.
11 Be very wary of what you wear. Wearing short and revealing things around lonely areas in for example back of nta area won't help your matter.
12 Be very alert when you walk dark and bushy places around abuja area or other areas around ksu.
