- #BBCAfricaEye investigates a shocking rise in child sexual abuse and incest in northern Uganda and discovers that justice often comes at a price.
Subscribe: / bbcafrica
In the wake of the pandemic, reports emerged from Uganda of a 300% increase in girls aged 10 -14 becoming pregnant. Sexual violence has been further fuelled in the north by the traumatic legacy of a 20-year insurgency led by notorious warlord Joseph Kony. At Gulu Regional Hospital, a quarter of babies are born to girls below the age of consent, and cases of sexual abuse of girls as young as three are being reported. Scant resources and alleged police corruption means that justice often comes at a price.

Most disgusting are the boys and men who do not have morals, do not have self control.
HOW DARE YOU BLAME A CHILD FOR INDECENT DRESSING...REALLLLY?? HOW DARE YOU. SO YOU MEAN YOU AS A BOY/MAN SHOULD RAPE ANY BABY YOU SEE NAKED OR WITH SCANTY CLOTHING???
WHERE IS YOUR BLOODY MORALS AND SELF CONTROL???😭😭😭😱😱😱😡😡🤬🤬 THIS IS TOO INFURIRIATING. AND POLICE BEHAVING LIKE FOOLS...THEY SHOULD GET OUT OF THE POLICE SYSTEM AND LET REAL TRUR MORALLY ADEPT POLICE TAKE OVER
SUCH MUST BE CASTRATED TO PROTECT GIRLS/WOMEN
No man's sexual desires should inflict harm unto another human being especially innocent children.
That is ungodly.
it is inhuman! Vile and disgustable!
Men will blame everyone but themselves for their actions
Not defending the man but he grew up in a war zone and mentally isn’t all there.
That man blaming the victims , saying that these children are indecently dressed! How disgusting to even think that let alone say it,
At least by him saying it aloud in that way it allows them to address that kind of thinking through education as well as having that man on their radar. Particularly if they have those men who are trying to change attitudes. Not to mention they can check on the girls in his family…
I’d say he is an obvious abuser and looking to place the blame on the victims 🤦🏾♀️
@@yaapokuaboateng3075. THEY DID THIS TO EVERY NATION ON EARTH , HAVE EVERY RACE AS SLAVES. And children in chains. 😭
Men will blame childern before they take accountability
There are many men that think like this. That is why they down play these events that occur
Disgraceful and horrible stop protecting men who defile their own girls I cried for the women of Uganda
The women go along with it too. They could stop him from defiling their daughters.
@@jazmynbrown6820blame women for what men do
@@jazmynbrown6820 will men ever going to be held accountable?
Whenever we bring up wrong actions by men, people like you deflect and try to blame women
@@msunje9862 wtf are you talking about? Do you not see the word “too” in my statement?
@@jazmynbrown6820 How will those women fight against the same system they were raised in? You won't take into account that speaking against 'the head of the family' (the man) could make matters worse for both the mother and the child. Or the fact that they might not have been taught anything else so they don't know anything else and the cycle continues
This is evil and should never be considered the 'new normal'. NEVER! Children and women being systematically raped and tortured is unjust! Crucial laws need to be passed and put into place! But also families need to be forthcoming when there are predators amongst them! Even here in America family members will dismiss and ignore sexual assault within the home or extended family. Why?!!! Why harbor these predators?! When you do this, you are just as much to blame!
So many men want this to be new norm
@@reinhardvonlohengramm6296😊
This has always happened, and it is not new. There's nothing new under the sun.
That old man did not just stand up and say that 'if a child is not interested, then they should be decently dressed'... Like um, they're a child! Also, as a black person myself, why is he acting like our ancestors used to walk around wearing decent clothes to cover themselves? Not too long ago our ancestors walked around naked and all was well! If you're sick in the head then just say that and stop blaming young innocent children. Yuck
You want to know what's crazy? There are villages where people still walk around naked. And you don't hear this crazy story. Those men are sick and perverted and are just trying to justify their evil acts
A lot of black people here in America say this as well. I can't tell you how many black so-called brothers and sisters say this as if it makes sense in the black spaces of social media. Not surprising that the black community has an issue with SA.
Not just blacks, but people of all races. But yes, I can definitely hear it being said
That's a lie.@@honestgenz4413
what, you think he learned about the history and former cultural practices of his people? he most likely grew up catholic.
Am not surprised with the lack of justice.6 years ago my 5 year old daughter was defilement by my Aunt's husband.The matter was reported to Kitgum Police station and trust me even after following all the process,I never got justice up to now.i was left to nurse and care for my child who has never recovered up to now😢. Medical report showed the girl was defiled,she identified the culprit only for the PP to reject the file for lack of evidence.When we tried to get independent bodies like Human rights, Probation and child fund,the case file disappeared without a trace.
Am sorry to say this but I hate the justice system of my country.😢
Im so sorry mamaa❤,
I can't get over this however much I try.The girl is now at a boarding school but I constantly worry for her safety.
We don't have justice system in Africa for Africans only for the rich and Europeans
So heartbreaking to experience this horrible incident done to your daughter.
So sorry about that😢
Heart breaking,am 27 and Ugandan .....seeing young girls pregnant with no support is the saddest thing.its not only in Uganda 🇺🇬 so many African countries are facing this due to poor systems,poverty and not senstinzing children in schools.
So u want government to support the pregnant girls or what,,,,ts responsility of parents to guard their children,, that's what hpnd if u give yo children too much freedom
Mostly all these happens in the Northern Part of every African country. Is it a curse ? The southern, eastern and western part of African country are bettee off as compared to the north and it is all the same trend. Child marriage, no education, war, rape, i mean in human behaviours..My question is why is that so . Is the Northern part of African people cursed to suffer all THROUGH and forever
@@trustvia2663 a lot of girls are raped, and are victim of incest .....There is much sexual abuse...
@@trustvia2663 literally shut up

Imagine a child under 14 pregnant 😭😭
This is so painful
I can't even imagine what this people go through.
@@charliendjahera9812 “children”
Yet the president is more concerned about LGBTQ people being immoral when these kids are violated by straight men, not gays😪😪😪
And worse part has to be it even happens with developed nations. In USA, we banned abortions. Threats of passing laws to make child marriage legal. It's DISGUSTING. Wow.
I’ve been in Northern Uganda for approx 2 years and this documentary isn’t even a tip of the mess there. A few months back, I witnessed a first hand scenario where a gentleman working with Local Gov’t (LG) was looking for a man who had impregnated his 14 yr old niece. Why? He wanted to hand over the girl to the man officially for marriage. But the guy responsible for the pregnancy had escaped when he’d heard about it. LG gentleman then called police and wanted us arrested because we didn’t help him catch the guy. A very high ranking police officer showed up and to my dismay, was the origin of the “get her married the her perpetrator” idea. I thought he was joking until he said “That’s how we do our things here”. It’s then that I knew that the plight of underage girls was far from over…
TF😢
These are the cultured people.
Any man that hurts/rapes a child is a demon.
My heart goes out to the little girl defiled at 3, I cannot even imagine what the mother is going through 😢😢
That part of the documentary made me feel physically ill
9x out of ten the parents are involved if not directly they know whats going on. They are paid for their children’s innocents. It’s discussing but true , but no one wants to talk about the truth. SICK
This is so heartbreaking 💔. Someone please explain how a victim is expected to cover costs for an abuser? Is Uganda a safe place for women and children? Im ashamed to be an African.
the whole wolrd is creepy like that don't be ashemed to be a man
I agree with you 100%
No country in Africa is a safe place for women. Africa in general has a systemic problem of not prioritising women's rights and that exposes them to abuse
@@Jsarmy87124 yeah
it is sad that such horrible vices still in our society. Why would you be ashamed of being an African. These things happen else where. You just need to play a part in stopping the vices in which ever way you can.
I personally come from Northern Uganda (Lango). Trust me in my village, a girl who is above 22 years without marriage begins getting stigmatized for over delaying to marry. Infact by 16 years, they are already encourage to look around. Its very rare for a girl to go beyond Ordinary level education. Inafct, many parents choose not to pay for the girls school fees. ....There are so many so many issues...
People like you should form a group to educate others who are ignorant.Marriage is not by force.
I can corroborate this. I'm a lango girl from Lira. And I grew up seeing most of my cousin sisters pregnant in their teens. It is so much worse than is portrayed here
@Nana the groups exist...but with our corrupt government and selfish MPs, individuals can only do so much. Remember this is an area with a history of war and war related sex crimes. Unless you are lucky enough to have been born in Kampala, life is freaking hard.
This is tragic. I thought our issues in Zimbabwe were big, but this too me is just too much. I feel for those young women who never get a chance to grow up and make better choices and get proper education.
It breaks my heart, that a child is becoming a mother to another one, alone in a place full of drunk males.
My heart goes out to all the women that are experiencing extreme oppression from the law towards fighting for their rights in regards to sexual abuse. I also pray that the criminals involved in these cases can be apprehended and face the law as stipulated. Very sad to here this my sincere sympathies to also the young women who have lost their lives in regards to such cases in Northern Uganda and to all the young teenage girls that have had to drop out of school and face very difficult life changes at an early age.
WHERE IS MUSEVENI ???? LOL....or maybe he can only tackle gay issues !!
@@fin-rb3yz Hmmmmm!
@@veraaddoyobo8482 kkm.?😊
Ujh😅kkk😅
@@fin-rb3yz Frankly I don't care about gay people or what they do. I'd much rather have two men or women marrying if they want than pregnant teens with very little to no rights, period.

I'd also like you to highlight the darker side of Kenya too. As someone who lived in Kenya for 2 years, there's a lot of dark sides of Kenya too, especially Nairobi
Mkuu uko huku 😅
@@loughrey101 maybe if I work with a media company I will ..but for my vlogs it's impossible
These men sick and lack self control if they are aroused by a child and especially your own daughter or granddaughter.
museveni's priority is gay people in consenting relationships....and not this....
I'm Ugandan and it's so sad to see these young girls pregnant with no support neither justice 😢
That is a grown man saying the children are indecently dressed.. children??? if they weren't interested?? that man should be behind bars!!
Disgusting! We as Africans have to stop this thing of protecting abusers to 'save face'. Both the men and women but especially MEN. If men really stood up against this, men who commit these crimes would be scared to do so! And the greedy police saying they must pay for services😡. Do they say the same for other crimes? I always wonder what would happen if a child got an std at such a young age from rape 😢. Truly infuriating!
well said. all man kind not Africans only
@@philipnyebaza9943 yes but RIGHT NOW, we are talking about ugandan men ......NOT ALL MAN.... you are part of the problem....
I agree this is also a huge issue in the African American community, parents and family would rather keep things to themselves and handle it to avoid scrutiny and shame from family and community but this will never solve the problem of sexual abuse in black families
What do you mean as Africans? You act like we are somehow an exception to humanity
@@Msambweni The rates of sexual abuse of minors in Africa is horrific. Its many times higher than other cultures. In South Africa alone. 700 girls 10 years old, show up to hospitals pregnant every year. They are all from the African natives, there are zero 10 year olds pregnant from white or Indian community.
Its really bad for African Americans too. I read a study about a native peoples, that showed over 90% of girls are molested before 10 years old.
In most of cultures the numbers are like 5%. Africa has the worst human rights for pretty much everything. Women being killed by their husbands is also really high in Africa. Africa still has oppressive treatment of women and girls through FGM, child marriage and multiple wives.
How do you feed a prisoner? What does the government do? The whole thing is appalling 😢
So jacked up
Is one allowed to have their prisoner starve to death ☠️? I mean why am I feeding a criminal?
Feed the prisoner??!! Feed him??!! What the actual ****!!! He can eat his own 💩 for all I care!! Where the heck is the government!!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Sick country man how can men do that to these younger girls ffs so sick and psychologically damaged
Will brag about their culture in a heartbeat.
The child who is raped or taken advantage of is not defiled. The adult is.
Yes you are correct.
Medieval 😮
This old man saying young girls are dressed indecently and therefore are interested in being sexually abused...was the 3 year old indecently dressed?
It was so disturbing to hear what that old man said 🤬
I understand your comment but naturally he isn't talking or addressing that incident.
He is right a 14 year old girl should be out late at night indecently dressed or at a disco or pub
@@mikemike5973 🤦♀️not you being a rape apologist smh. If you see a girl's thighs and thinks that she is calling to be raped you are a pervert imo.
And this is the same thing that we have been talking about you want to say that we as women and girls ought to be careful when in reality we should be condemning the rapists and not the victims/ survivors.
@@alittleofeverything.9581 Your very wrong and making terrible accusations against me which is bad.
Do you think the following increases the chances of being attacked either robbed or sexually assaulted.
1) out late at night and in a quiet location
2) being dressed badly
3)hanging around underage at a disco etc etc
All such things increase the risk of problems and if you can't see that I don't know what more I can say to you.
Attacking a women or even more sickening a young child is the lowest of the low but with some care from parents or villagers some incidents can be avoided
Do you live in an African village because me I do
@@mikemike5973 what!?I literally commented on what you said. And if you did read what I said to understand and not have a reply then you would get that from what I said.
We cannot keep telling people that they need to take care because we fear that pervert are lurking in the dark etc we need to deal with these perverts not tell women it is their duty to make sure they aren't raped.
oh my god this horrible why men can't stop hurting girls this is so nasty poor girls destroyed for life
This is an absurd generalization ....
@@toppicks6460 oh please f*** off somewhere else.

Loosing my loving mum due to the war in the north, and over 50 loved ones is the most painful memories I live with daily.

Why do this to teens. 😭😭😭😭
*children
It is about control
Recently attended a niece's wedding in Mpigi and was shocked to see a girl maybe 11 or 11yrs old breastfeeding a couple moths old baby. I was thoroughly shocked.
was she raped too? it is sad. i saw that a lot during lockdowns.
@@philipnyebaza9943 Statutory rape. What does an 11 yr old know about sex..? My heart broke.
How can a parents left an 8yrs all alone? This kind of parents needs punishment as well. Poor baby.
This is sickening, appalling, heart breaking. This has me so upset😢😢😢😢
Pamella angwech is doing so much, I saw her fighting for the women who had kids with the chinese construction company.I felt it when the guy said, she cries when she sees other kids going to school, because I went through the same, I cried when I saw my fellow classmates going to school when I was heavily pregnant though mine was rape. I hope this girls get justice because it gives peace of mind and paves way for what to come
Thank you so much for sharing. 💔
Praying for your healing, such a cruel world
Wait. You have to pay for justice? This is heartbreaking!!
This is the saddest story I have ever watched. My heart goes out to the woman. How can you feed a prisoner? 😢
the Ugandan people and their museveni's priority are gay people in consenting relationships....and not this....lol....
Why don’t the “good” men take care of the perpetrators themselves? If none of the men are courageous enough to protect the women and children, then they do not deserve to have women and children. Perhaps the women should start deciding who exists and does not.
That's story of LRA forcing son to sleep with mother ....I felt sick to my stomach ..I puked😢
Sadly, the lowest class in society suffers the most due to corruption. Men know that they can take advantage of any girl and get away with it because the people entrusted with the power to care for the vulnerable only care about themselves and can not do anything to help. It's so painful to be Ugandan.
Paul ,,,I've heard your voice since I was a small boy now am a man in my forties,,But am shocked to see how young u look ,,love what u do, Amooti in BC. 😊
"The younger the mother the more the complications...". Sad reality.....
Thank you Paul for highlighting such social injustices 😮
This is so heartbreaking, I can't stop crying.
This is not only sexual assault. Also teenage pregnancy are on the rise. The whole situation is very worrying. The president especially the wife of the president make the situation worse. Destroys life's. To teach girl's to say no, recognise dangers situations is very important.
Ugandans with tying everything to the president! How is he supposed to help you parent your children?
Perhaps to teach MEN to say no to themselves?? Incest with an underage girl and you put the weight of the issue on the girl? Please.
@@kria9119 OH please. Every country in this world has pedophiles, whether your child is exposed or not is upto you as a parent, not the government, not mps, none of them. Be a parent
@@kria9119 completely agree, their is a lot of work for the schools and the religious leaders to become serious..at Matany hospital we always have a serious talk with the other party (men). Not supported by the government leadership
I’m sure most of these girls do say no. Your ignorant to believe all these girls partook in these events willingly like cmon. Let’s be real here.
Seriously???😭😭What has Humanity come to?? I feel so sad for these children that are abused and those brought into this world through rape attached to trauma. I pray they get the help and justice needed. May i rise up an help with this issues.
I hate when those devils who defile young girls justify their acts with the fact that young girls dress indecently.... u serious 😢😢😢 shame on u
Half of them only have the rags they stand up in
true, this happens in Uganda, my country.
at times some are even forced to keep quite about it because the family is too scared to be ashamed in the community, many many threatening things are happening, generally not in the northern part only, we are also facing the worst in the west especially FORCED TEENAGE MARRIAGE. I hope BBC will also do a documentary about this and put those people out for the world to know them.
WHERE IS MUSEVENI ???? LOL....or maybe he can only tackle gay issues !!🤣
@@fin-rb3yz right wingers world wide are going after the lgbt community in order to distract their people from corruption and authoritarianism
Not only in Uganda. Same happens in Kenya. It’s sad. And funny thing is the baby daddies are usually men who are already grown up. Preying on young girls. Shameeee😢
I am so sorry to the victims.
It's a shame to Africa.
I can't watch past five minutes. So painful
You ask yourself very many questions. How could a man have sex with a four year old kid???!!!!! Abasajja olemwa!

I am aware now.
I hope things get better soon for all of them.

This is a depressing state of affairs.
This is heart wrenching 😭😭😭
I am a landlord to Congolese refugees. One of my tenants 2 old women came to the us via Uganda they brought 2 young girls with them I have been working on getting their papers in order,,basically there are none. They came in via the unirc the children are shrouded in mystery their mother died. Grandmother does not have legal custody. i have hired a lawyer to help because without the paperwork they are not eligible to attend a private school where I have applied for them. Sometimes I become very frustrated! They seem not to care or want to move forward this documentary reminded me of how far apart culturally we are and gave me a new perspective thank you
I pray for all these women and for you to have the courage to help many more
I am in tears. What an evil!
I had no idea these things were happening to these poor little girls. This broke my heart so bad
This is happening in South Africa right now! And we are not at War
😢😢😢😢this is so heartbreaking 😭 I can't stop crying, asking my self whether justice will ever be served 😭
I'm augandan musician and activist looking at this makes me shade tears ...oh mama Ugandan what did we do wrong?
Keeping M7 in power is what we did wrong 😢😢😢
you did not do anything wrong as you bro. good you are a musician and activist, you have where to start to save the already changing situation.
Why are these girls forced to carry these fetuses to term, when it is so hard on their bodies and may cost them their life. This is sad.
The most ignorant thing I heard from the police boss is that if they don’t have fuel they ask for money from the victims, that sets precedents to corruption she should be ashamed of even reasoning like that.
SO ARROGANT POLICE COMMANDER
This is prevalent in most African countries including Nigeria
This story is so horrifying. The irony is the minister of justice in the acholi region is called "Grace Freedom" 😢
🙈 The irony could almost be viewed as sarcasm
Dear God. Bless those who are helping this society. Justice for the children.
15:42 - 15:53 that really made me tear up. I felt for the mother and imagined what she must have felt.
May they find peace
Never let your child out of your sight.
This is very sad. Men don't know that their duty in life is to protect women and children 😢
Can’t believe this is still happening. So the government can’t protect its people? Really sad
We are government us all let’s try
May every women impacted by these horrific crimes find themselves again 🙏 Women are beautiful, loving, intelligent and powerful beings. You may stray from your path but there will always be way to find it, starting with that first small step.
This is a problem bedeviling almost every African country. I think Legislators need to put tough laws on perpetrators. This is beyond sadness. What kind of society are we moulding for future generation? Absurd!

There is no justice in Uganda! This is disturbing
Thanks everyone. am in the middle of all these. tough world
This is so evil and selfish what these men have done to the women and children! My heart is so angry and saddened, but I admire those working against this and speaking out, they are so very brave. They need laws that are enforced to protect and prevent more victims. if they don't, in anger I sometimes think there should be a worldwide night of the shears. But anger is not the way, ever. I hope they can overcome this evil.
Someone defiles your kid,you fuel the police car to get them arrested,then feed them police cells. This is just siiick and breaking,for lack of a better phrase!
