In a significant legal case, Baloch rights activist Sammi Deen has filed a petition challenging the travel ban imposed on her by government authorities. The Sindh High Court has issued notices to multiple ministries, including the Ministry of Interior and the FIA, setting a hearing date for September 23. This case raises important questions about the balance between national security and individual freedoms, particularly for human rights defenders in Balochistan.

 Today, we celebrate the joy, innocence, and boundless potential of every child. But amidst the celebration, let's remember the importance of safeguarding their rights. In 2003, Nigeria passed the Child Rights Act, ensuring every child's right to education, healthcare, protection from abuse, and so much more. #ChildrensDay #ChildRightsAct #Nigeria #ForEveryChild #toplawfirm #legal

In line with Nigeria's obligations under international human rights treaties. it's important to recognize that forcing individuals into compulsory labor or subjecting them to torture and inhumane treatment, even in cases where they are criminals, is not just unethical but a crime. Every person, regardless of their circumstances, has the inherent right to live with dignity and be treated with respect. Are you interested in seeing more posts on human rights?

Ambedkar’s thought on labour, legal rights, women’s rights, education, caste, political representation and the economy are international in importance. This book explores his lesser-known period of London-based study and publication during the early 1920s, presenting that experience as a lens for thinking about Ambedkar’s global intellectual significance. Edited by William Gould, Santosh Dass, and Christophe Jaffrelot, the book contains exhaustive resources, insights and stories that add to the existing literature on Ambedkar and related studies. #ComingSoon #AmbedkarInLondon #Preorder here: https://bit.ly/3UxEwxa

Know your rights brought to you by the Human Rights Chancery, faculty of law, Ekiti State University. Francis Bacon once said that “Knowledge is power.” This is why it is vital to know what the law says about bullying. Section 34 of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria(as amended) provides for the right to dignity of human person which prohibits any form of inhuman/degrading treatment such as bullying. This law is also upheld by Section 11 of the Child's Right Act and Article 1 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Based on Francis Bacon's words, now that you know, you are empowered. Therefore, do not encroach on anybody's rights, do not let anyone encroach on your rights rather, report to appropriate authorities or get a lawyer. Let us work together to create an environment where every person's inherent worth is recognized and honored. #knowyourrights #saynotobullying #dignity #HRCeksulaw

My latest piece for The Spinoff is about how the Waitangi Tribunal’s latest report, on the proposed repeal of section 7AA of the Oranga Tamariki Act, is about more than just child protection. It tackles child protection issues head on, like unpicking the false assumption that upholding Te Tiriti o Waitangi is in conflict with upholding children’s best interests. But it also deals with bigger issues, like the role of the government as treaty partner, and all that that entails. The subtext here is the tribunal’s emerging role as a bastion of protection for Māori rights in the face of an increasingly hostile government. For all those reasons and more, this latest report should be of interest far beyond its specific policy context. https://lnkd.in/gVkMEfMJ
