Download or read book Child Marriage in Nigeria Human Rights and the Islamic Law Perspectives written by Ammar Badmus and published by . This book was released on 2020-02-13 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is an attempt to deal with Child Marriage in the perspective of Human Rights Laws and Islamic Law with a view to laying bare the two positions and giving possible solution(s) to create a successful meeting point on the issue of Child Marriage which has triggered such controversies and debate in Nigeria and the world at large.The issue of Child Marriage is a highly charged, sensitive, controversial and emotional matter. This controversy surrounding Child Marriage in Nigeria became more prominent when the former Governor of Zamfara State married a 13year old Egyptian girl-child. Against the backdrop of this provocative marriage is the debate that was later generated on the floor of the Senate where the same Senator and some others reportedly argued for the recognition of Child Marriage. The methodology of this research will be based on historical, analytical and doctrinal approaches in gathering related data. Data so collected would be scrutinized and discussed in order to reach a logical conclusion. The work has examined the problem of child marriage in Nigeria as regards its position under the Human Rights laws and Islamic Law perspectives thereby shedding more light on the lacuna and contradictions apparent in the Human Right laws and the provisions of the Shariah on child marriage. A brief Constitutional position on the issue of child marriage is discussed in this work and the conclusion was made that there is a need for the government to take active responsibility in determining the age of a minor in relation to child marriage based on socio-religious lifestyle of Nigerians and the realities of womanhood. It is with sincere belief and hope that readers are benefited greatly with this research work and the fact that this work is assumed to be a pioneer academic research on this topic, it is expected that more work that look into other areas that have not been captured by this work would be written and published. The author would be gratified by such further works on this issues or related topics.Thank you for your attention and time.Ammar Olaide BadmusJan' 2020

Download or read book The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child written by Ton Liefaard and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2016-11-01 with total page 964 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2014 the world’s most widely ratified human rights treaty, one specifically for children, reached the milestone of its twenty-fifth anniversary. The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child was adopted after the fall of the Berlin Wall, and in the time since then it has entered a new century, reshaping laws, policies, institutions and practices across the globe, along with fundamental conceptions of who children are, their rights and entitlements, and society’s duties and obligations to them. Yet despite its rapid entry into force worldwide, there are concerns that the Convention remains a high-level paper treaty without the traction on the ground needed to address ever-continuing violations of children’s rights. This book, based on papers from the conference ‘25 Years CRC’ held by the Department of Child Law at Leiden University, draws together a rich collection of research and insight by academics, practitioners, NGOs and other specialists to reflect on the lessons of the past 25 years, take stock of how international rights find their way into children’s lives at the local level, and explore the frontiers of children’s rights for the 25 years ahead.

Download or read book Family Demography and Post 2015 Development Agenda in Africa written by Clifford O. Odimegwu and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-08-27 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive analysis of the structure, determinants and consequences of changes in sub-Saharan African families, thereby representing an Afrocentric description of the emerging trends. It documents various themes in the sub-disciplines of family demography. The first section of the book focuses on philosophical understanding of African family, its theoretical perspectives, and comparative analysis of family in the 20th and 21st centuries. The second section covers family formation, union dissolution, emerging trend in single parenthood, and adolescents in the family. The following section describes types, determinants and consequences of African family changes: health, childbearing, youth development, teen pregnancy and family violence and the last chapter provides systematic evidence on existing laws and policies governing African family structure and dynamics. As such it illustrates the importance of family demography in African demographic discourse and will be an interesting read to scholars and students in the field of demography, social workers, policy makers, departments of Social Development in countries in Africa and relevant international agencies and all those interested in understanding the African family trajectory.

Download or read book Do African Children Have Rights written by Stephen Nmeregini Achilihu and published by Universal-Publishers. This book was released on 2010 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United Nations 1989 Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) constitutes a landmark in the development of international human rights law and reflects an historic turn in universal thinking about children and their rights. Many children in Africa today face the future with a deep sense of uncertainty and foreboding. Many have no hope of education and the issues of child trafficking, sexual exploitation and child labour reflect a profound crisis of the family. The current socio-economic situation has radically changed the world views and the life expectations of the African child. This book attempts to respond to some of the questions that could be asked: to what extent have the provisions of the CRC been implemented in the national legislations of African States? What effect have they had on children in Africa? What mechanisms exist to prevent and sanction rights abusers? Are children's rights in Africa reality, or simply rhetoric?
