Master's Thesis from the year 2023 in the subject Politics - Topic: Public International Law and Human Rights, grade: 68, University of Hull, course: LLM in International Law (Conflict, Security and Human Rights), language: English, abstract: This comparative study examines the status and implementation of children's rights in Africa, with a specific focus on Nigeria, in comparison to IHRL. By analysing relevant statutes, judicial decisions, and secondary sources, this research aims to explore the similarities and differences in the legal frameworks governing child rights in these two contexts. The dissertation investigates the extent to which Nigeria aligns with international human rights standards and identifies the challenges and opportunities in promoting and protecting children's rights. Through this analysis, the study contributes to a better understanding of the gaps in children's rights implementation in Nigeria and provides recommendations for enhancing the legal and practical frameworks for the protection of children's rights.
