Former minister Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma delivers a powerful call to action, urging women to leave abusive relationships—no matter the cost—to protect their survival and dignity. Speaking at a critical event on gender-based violence, she shared harrowing testimonies, including that of Ms. T, a burn survivor whose husband set her on fire in 2010, killing their two-year-old daughter. Dlamini-Zuma also exposed how abuse often begins in childhood, with parental dismissal of bullying, and condemned societal tolerance—even pointing to police who shame victims instead of protecting them. Stories of trafficking and abuse within religious institutions, plus the intersection of race and violence, underscore the deep-rooted nature of these crises. Her final message is clear: silence kills. Abuse must never be tolerated, and women’s safety must always come first.
