Press Release
Kebbi State House of Assembly Passes the Child Rights Bill
YouthHubAfrica and members of the civil society coalition for the passage of the Child Rights
Act hereby congratulate the Kebbi State House of Assembly on the passage of the Child Rights
Act.
The passage of the bill by the legislative arm of the government in Kebbi state is a necessary
and commendable step made towards the final domestication of the international convention of
the right of children which was passed into law as the Child Right Act in 2003 by the Federal
Government. The passage of the bill into law in Kebbi state represents the desires of the
lawmakers to strengthen laws in Kebbi state for the benefit of children in the state, especially
girls.
Youthhubafrica is pleased to have worked alongside several non-state actors to advocate for the
passage of the CRA into law in Kebbi state and we call on the Kebbi State Governor to, without
delay, sign this bill into law. Kebbi state by this passage is poised to become the number 26
state in Nigeria to have domesticated the Child Rights Law and we are hopeful that the
remaining states in Nigeria will take a cue from Kebbi and accelerate the passage of the bill
into law.
Congratulations to the good people of Kebbi state.
Signed
Rotimi Olawale
