Minister of Women Affairs, Pauline Tallen, says government has established family courts in 16 states across the country to ensure child-friendly justice for children, either as victims or as offenders of violence. Tallen disclosed this while briefing newsmen recently in Abuja.
According to her, the establishment of family courts is as a result of the effective and sustained advocacy and sensitisation for effective implementation of the Child Rights Law (CRL).
Tallen added that to ensure the safety and protection of children, she also reconstituted the Technical Working Group on Ending Violence Against Children and the Technical Working Group on Case Management in Nigeria.
She said the ministry had also launched the Beta Version and upgraded the National Orphans and Vulnerable Children Management Information Systems (NOMIS) data base.
She explained that the data base was to provide robust data on the National Orphans and Vulnerable Children, generated from the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
The ministry had also launched the Movement for Good to end Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) and mobilised some persons to pledge to end the practice by 2030, she stated.
She noted that in spite of efforts by government and other stakeholders, children were still vulnerable and victims of abduction, ritual killings, rape, child marriage, domestic abuse and others.
“These are all acts that are perpetrated by close family members and caregivers that are supposed to protect these children.
“More worrisome is the recent increase of violence in schools, where children are physically and sexually abused.
The minister, therefore, urged stakeholders, particularly the entertainment industry, to use their platforms constructively toward promoting good values.
She revealed that 31 states have so far domesticated the Child Rights Act 2003, adding that advocacy was ongoing to ensure the remaining states do the same.
The Minister of State for the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Dr Ramatu Tijani-Aliyu, represented by Hajiya Hadiza Kabir, the Secretary, Special Development, stressed the need to strengthen mechanisms that would protect children from violence.
pain’s Rafael Nadal celebrates winning his quarter final match against Serbia’s Novak Djokovic REUTERS/Pascal Rossignol
Talks of an end to Rafael Nadal’s reign proved premature once again as the claycourt king stayed on course for a record-extending men’s 22nd Grand Slam title by beating arch rival Novak Djokovic 6-2 4-6 6-2 7-6(4) in a vintage French Open quarter-final clash on Tuesday.
The 13-time Roland Garros champion, beaten by the world number one in the semi-finals here last year, arrived in Paris on the back of two injuries that had hampered his preparations.
Having already survived a five-set thriller against Felix Auger Aliassime in the previous round, the Spaniard, who has only lost three times at the French Open since his first campaign in 2005, knows every inch of the immense court Philippe Chatrier and Djokovic paid for the reminder.
The Serbian is still stuck at 20 Grand Slam titles after being barred from taking part in the Australian Open by local authorities over his refusal to get vaccinated against COVID-19 – a major that Nadal won.
On the day teenager Carlos Alcaraz, who has been widely tipped as his successor, was knocked out, Nadal threw the punches and had defending champion Djokovic on the ropes in a high octane start under the spotlights.
Djokovic fought back in an 88-minute second set but the 35-year-old Nadal, backed by a partisan crowd, found the resources to end it in four sets despite being a break down in the fourth and set up a meeting with German third seed Alexander Zverev for a place in Sunday’s final.
Zverev beat Alcaraz in four sets earlier.
MAGIC NIGHT
“It’s a very emotional moment for me. Thank you everyone. It’s incredible, the support I get from you. Everyone knows how important it is for me to play here. It’s the most important tournament of my career,” Nadal said on court after the four-hour-12-minute tug of war.
“Very tough match. Djokovic is one of the best players in history. Playing against him is always a big challenge. Against him there’s only one way to play – at your best level from the first point to the last.
“And today was a magic night for me. Unexpected level from me.”
A 10-minute opening game, won by Nadal on Djokovic’s serve, set the tone of the clash of the heavyweights.
“Rafa, Rafa!” the crowd chanted.
He broke a second time with a trademark forehand winner down the line before wrapping up the first set on serve when Djokovic made his ninth unforced error.
The Serbian fell 3-0 behind in the second, but a poorly-executed drop shot by Nadal allowed him to pull a break back.
A smile appeared on Djokovic’s face. In a key 18-minute sixth game, Djokovic broke again on his fifth attempt when Nadal’s backhand went wide.
He faced a break point in the following game but Nadal was playing too short and the Serbian bagged his fourth consecutive gale in a spectacular turnaround.
Nadal just managed to hold for 4-4 but cracked on serve at 5-4 as Djokovic levelled the match.
The Mallorcan, however, started the third set in similar fashion as the first, racing to a 4-1 lead and wrapping it up on yet another unforced error from Djokovic.
In a see-saw contest, Djokovic regained the upper hand to open a 3-0 lead in the fourth set but Nadal would not go into a fifth set, breaking back for 4-5 before forcing a tiebreak in which he gave his opponent no chance.
The Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC) says it plans to institute new dimension strategies in basic education.
Executive Secretary of UBEC, Dr. Hamid Boboyi, disclosed this at a two-day interactive meeting of the department of special programmes with SUBEB special Education desk officers in Abuja.
He acknowledged that technical experts were selected to kick start the programme for a clearer understanding of the principles of inclusive education in terms of whole-school planning.
He noted that the ultimate goal of the meeting was to ensure that the learning needs of all categories of children with special needs are adequately catered for through the provision of assistive technologies and instructional materials.
Boboyi mentioned that the inclusive education system would implement individualised education opportunities for different categories of children with disabilities, provide a common learning environment for all learners, and present a clear vision and well-stated mission geared toward achieving exceptional learning performance.
“It is on record that they are between 93 and 150 million children with different categories of disabilities in the world. There are 100, 863 males and 88,208 females totalling 189,070 Nigerian children with different categories of disabilities in basic education institutions only as revealed in the UBE National Personnel Audit report in 2018,” said the UBEC boss.

The Kano Zone of ASUU on Tuesday expressed concern over alleged intimidation and threats against some of its officials by the management of the Kaduna State University (KASU).
The Coordinator, Abdulkadir Muhammad, expressed the consternation in a statement issued on Tuesday in Kaduna.
Muhammad stated that the zone had received a disturbing report on the issuance of queries to the KASU Branch Chairman and Acting Secretary, Dr Peter Adamu, and Dr Akos Ibrahim, respectively.
He added that the queries were vindictive and were issued to the two officials for communicating the decision of the branch’s congress through the media.
He stated also that the congress agreed to communicate to the public its angst against reopening of the university by the management while ASUU strike subsisted.
“We condemn the action of the university management which singles out the branch chairman and the acting secretary for a possible reprimand over an action that emanated from members of the branch.
“As a duly registered trade union recognised by law, we shall not tolerate any form of threat or intimidation against any member or official of our union for exercising constitutionally guaranteed rights of embarking on industrial actions.
“The Kano Zone of ASUU wants to re-emphasise that the on-going national strike action of our union is patriotic and necessary for the restoration of our long-neglected university system,’’ he stated.
Muhammad advised the university’s management against any action that could worsen the current precarious industrial relations climate.
He called on the management withdraw the “vindictive and hastily issued queries’’ to the two ASUU officials.
“The zone’s leadership is closely monitoring developments in the university, and we remain prepared to take appropriate action at the appropriate time on the matter,’’ Muhammad stated.
An authoritative source in the university who spoke on condition of anonymity confirmed that the ASUU officials were queried for sabotaging efforts by management to resume academic activities.
The varsity’s management had announced on April 26 that academic activities would resume on May 9 for the continuation of the second semester 2020/2021 academic session.
The university’s branch of ASUU stated on May 1, however, it had not pulled out of the on-going ASUU strike.
The union, in its statement, dissociated itself from the circular released by the university on April 26 asking students and lecturers to resume academic activities on May 9.
The Kano Zone of ASUU covers Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, Bayero University, Kano, Kaduna State University, Kaduna, and Yusuf Maitama Sule University, Kano.
It also covers the Federal University, Dutse, Kano University of Science and Technology, Wudil, and Sule Lamido University, Kafin Hausa.
