Distinguished colleagues, partners, and human rights defenders,

In a move to strengthen human rights protection in Nigeria, the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) is set to collaborate with the Nigerian Bar Association-Human Rights Institute (NBA-HRI) to address pressing human rights concerns, particularly affecting vulnerable population like children in conflict with the law and women affected by violence.

The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has stated its readiness to go the extra mile in advocating more for the realization of the rights of women in Nigeria, recognizing their critical role in well-being of individual citizens and national development.

The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has released a report detailing the alarming scale of human rights violations across the country. This was made known at the presentation of the December 2024 Human Rights Dashboard in Abuja Tuesday.
