Speed dating has become a popular way to meet single people
in the last few years in many countries, and is now in Nigeria. In one night,
you’ll meet a dozen of people while having a good time in a safe and friendly
environment of a nice restaurant/bar.
You will have about 7 minutes to meet each person of the
opposite sex, where you get to talk and get to know the person…before the bell
rings! As the bell rings, you move to the next person and chat for 7 minutes,
till the bell rings again! That way you get to meet everyone in the room that
night. You will get the chance to Match or Pass everyone you meet that night.
People who match each other will be linked through our service after the event.
Why VOW Foundation?
Rape and domestic violence are crimes that are ravaging our
society. Read the newspapers or blogs and you are bound to see multiple rape
stories every month. And while it seems like rape is on the rise in Nigeria, it
could also mean we are finally talking about it more. Take a VOW, Stop the
Violence now.
We do not solve the problem by keeping quiet about it, or
worse, by blaming the victim.
VOW Foundation is dedicated to raising awareness about these
atrocities. They provide a support and service mechanism for women to get the
help they need and shatter the culture of silence that has decimated them for
too long.
The VOW hotline has been set up to provide vital resources
to survivors of rape and acts of domestic violence in Africa. The hotline
serves as the first line of support. The organization plans to expand to a
treatment facilities, support and education centres.

I am still finding it hard to see why speed dating is incorporated in such a program, a quite high number of rape cases come from the results of same activity such as speed dating. Well, I presume they know where they are driving with all this, all the best then!

ReplyDeleteSpeed dating and campaign against rape? Seriously? Is there no other way to raise awareness? Is this a joke? Don't give rapists a field day please.
ReplyDeleteLet's start d speed dating rite here, no long tin, heheehehe
ReplyDeletePpl should open their minds and not limit your thinking .The speed dating is in a secure place where it is controlled. It encourages safe places to date and have fun. I like the idea and respect the ppl that had the guts to do it in Nija. Vivian.
ReplyDeleteRidiculous! Speed dating and awareness against violence and rape? All the runs babes, una don get platform o. For just 3k, you can share ur contact with potential customers.
ReplyDeleteWot if the men are more in number than the female?
ReplyDeleteThat person talking about people opening their minds has obviously not come in close range or been remotely affected by rape. Can u vouch for d people that will be speed dating? Every single individual? Life n dating is a risk,but some risks are best avoided. Linda, u should really post peoples comments!
ReplyDeleteOpen ur minds.....she meant the area thespeed dating would be organized in a safe environment ! So it isn't about vouching it is about fun . You come alone you go home alone .
