WHEN YES DOES NOT MEAN CONSENT.

There is so much about consent with regards to sex that is yet to be learnt. Consent is generally interpreted as when a someone expressly agrees to take part in sexual activities with another

However, there are several instances... #tifesansa
...where a yes is not enough. Such instances are:
1. Where the consent was obtained by threatening someone;
2. Where the consent was obtained under false pretense, deception or by impersonation;
3. Where someone was induced into giving consent using substances or drugs.
4. Where the person giving consent is a minor;
5. Where the person who’s consent is sought is of unsound mind; and
6. Where the person is not is a state to give or deny consent i.e drunk.

Note also that consent is a one time thing and every subsequent sexual activity will...
...require fresh consent.

In all the instances listed above, sexual activities will amount to rape or sexual abuse. In order to avoid conviction or humiliation as a sexual offender, ensure you obtain consent correctly.

...Sections 282 of the Penal Code Act.

As for withdrawal of consent during sex, the legal framework in Nigeria is silent on it and it is left to the discretion of morality and the circumstances of each event of sexual activity
