The National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons, NAPTIP has called on Nigerians to report cases of rape within their vicinity to the agency or the nearest police station.

The director general of the agency, Mrs Julie Okah-Donli, made the call following the rising cases of rape in the country.

Okah-Donli said both old and present cases should be reported to the agency.
