The honourable minister of women affairs, Uju Kennedy Ohanenye, has condemned in strong terms a disturbing video where a young lady was seen capturing her mother’s mental illness experience.
In the video, the young lady was seen taking food to her mentally ill mother who lives on the street.
According to her, things got tough when her father passed away. She said she has had to fend for the mother in the little way she could.
However, in a tweet on Monday, Bar Uju Kennedy condemned the video created by the young lady and emphasized that mentally ill persons deserve to be supported and protected.
“We condemn the disturbing Video report of a woman’s mental illness being exploited by her daughter for personal gain and social media content. This is unacceptable, potentially harmful, and troubling.
“We strongly condemn exploiting vulnerable individuals, especially those struggling with mental health issues. Mental illness demands compassion, understanding, and support – not ridicule or exploitation.
“The Federal Ministry of Women Affairs urgently requests information about the mother’s identity and condition to ensure proper care and protection. A reward is offered for prompt location assistance.
Bar. Uju Kennedy called for appropriate actions to be taken to address this situation. “We call on everyone to respect the dignity and humanity of those facing mental health issues and report similar instances immediately.
“Let’s work together to prevent exploitation and support those who need it most,” she said.
