The insurgency and conflict in the North-Eastern States of Nigeria for over a decade has led to the loss of lives and properties and the displacement of millions of people. The Boko Haram insurgency has seen some of the worst Human Rights violations in Nigeria which have also spread across the Sahel region. A lot of these violations have been recognised but most individual cases remain undocumented as a result of poor access and lack of on the ground data collection specific to Human Rights.
The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) and the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) have announced the launch of a project aimed at Promoting Reconciliation, Reintegration and Transitional Justice in North Eastern Nigeria.
The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has tasked Nigerians, particularly victims of human rights violations to always seek redress in the Commission or the judiciary using the instrumentality of the law, saying that it pays to speak out in the face of injustice, discrimination and other forms of human rights violations.
