InterceptCSA: The Podcast is the official podcast of InterceptCSA, an organisation dedicated to the prevention of child sexual abuse through education, awareness, and advocacy in Nigeria. Every episode is built on one conviction: that information changes outcomes.

    When Siblings Harm: What to Know About Sexual Abuse at Home

    Sibling sexual abuse is one of the most hidden and least spoken about forms of harm within the home. In this episode, we begin a careful and necessary conversation about what it looks like when harmful sexual behaviour happens between siblings, specifically when both children are minors. Drawing from real conversations with children, this episode explores why many children never speak up, how family dynamics shape silence, and why this form of abuse is often misunderstood or dismissed. You will also hear a deeper reflection on exposure, including early encounters with pornography, and how removing shame can open the door for children to seek help before harm escalates. This episode is for parents, caregivers, educators, and anyone who wants to better understand what is often left unspoken, and how to respond differently.

    When a Child is the One Who Harms

    When a child is the one who causes sexual harm, it complicates everything we thought we understood about who needs protection and who needs intervention. It asks us to hold two truths at the same time. That a child was harmed, and that the one who caused the harm is also a child. In this episode we talk about what child on child sexual abuse actually is, why it happens, why it goes undetected in homes, the specific situations where it is most likely to occur, and what the right response looks like for both children involved. We also cover the signs that a child may be displaying harmful sexual behaviour.

    Who Abuses Children

    Most of what we believe about who abuses children is wrong, and that wrongness is costing children their safety. In this episode, we dismantle the most persistent myths about child sexual abuse perpetrators, trace how stranger danger and media narratives shaped a picture of the abuser that almost never matches reality, and then answer the question directly: who actually abuses children, what they have in common, and why the most dangerous person in a child’s life is almost always someone that child already knows and trusts.

    The Other End of a Disclosure: Seeing the Child Before the Case

    When a child tells someone they’ve been sexually abused, the world rushes towards making a police report, getting a medical examination, or establishing the legal case. But somewhere in that rush, the child, their shock, their fear, their need for safety, can quietly disappear from the center of the story. In this episode, we strip away the headlines and legal jargon to focus on what a disclosure really is: a child handing over the most fragile truth they have. We talk about our first response and why it matters more than we think. How to avoid re-victimization, and what it means to truly see the child before the case. Drawing from a memoir excerpt, Nigerian-specific contexts, and years of witnessing disclosures, we explore the human side of responding to abuse.

    When a Child Tells: How Disclosures Actually Happen

    When a child discloses abuse, it rarely sounds like a clear confession. More often, it’s hidden in hints, changes in behavior, coded language, or even silence. In this deeply personal episode, we begin our series on disclosures by exploring the subtle, often-missed ways children reveal abuse, and why so many attempts to tell are ignored, dismissed, or misunderstood. Drawing from a moving volunteer training excerpt and a real-life account from lawyer and listener Emmanuella Nyong, we unpack: 1. The stages children often go through before a full disclosureCommon ways adults miss critical cues 2. Why most disclosures are messy, delayed, incomplete, or recanted 3. How to be the kind of adult a child can safely speak to This episode will challenge how you think about “telling” and equip you to listen beyond words, because many children are speaking, just not in the language we’ve been taught to hear.

    When time multiplies: What CSA survivors wish people understood about the many layers of CSA’s Impact

    What happens when child sexual abuse is not just a moment in time, but a wound that weaves itself into years of silence, shame, and survival? In this raw and reflective episode of Intercept CSA: The Podcast, we explore how time often multiplies the ache of abuse when there’s no space to name it, no language to process it, and no safety to heal from it. Through the courageous voice of Ms. Oge, a survivor and mother, we witness the layered impact of CSA, across memory, motherhood, and meaning. This episode is a reminder that CSA is not just what happened, it’s everything that followed. And that healing, though often delayed, is still possible.
