Nigeria as a nation is a signatory to several international (particularly United Nations) Conventions on human rights. The emphasis of this book, however, is on the Convention on the Rights of the Child (1989) which has been domesticated by the National Assembly of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in 2003; this domestication is thus referred to as the Child Rights Act 2003. In spite of its domestication, there still abound numerous cases of child rights violation in Nigeria, these violations include but not limited to child labour, child marriage, child trafficking, female genital mutilation, and child prostitution. This book attempts an inquiry into the persisting nature of child rights violations in Nigeria and considers the reasonability and practicability of the Child Rights Act 2003 in Nigeria. This book resolves this problem by shifting the attention of all and sundry to the importance and relevance of the provisions of the Child Rights Act 2003, as well as raising an alarm on the poor level of implementation of the Child Rights Act in Nigeria.
