It’s Children’s Day.

The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) has expressed concern over the increasing use of children as suicide bombers in northern Nigeria.
UNICEF Representative in Nigeria, Jean Gough said that UNICEF’s report showed that more children and women have been used as suicide bombers in Northeast Nigeria in the first 5 months of this year than during the whole of last year.“In 2014, 26 suicide attacks were recorded compared to 27 attacks as of May 2015. In at least three-quarters of these incidents, children and women were reportedly used to carry out the attacks. Girls and women have been used to detonate bombs or explosives belts at crowded locations, such as market places and bus stations.”

Meanwhile, senator, representing Lagos Central District, Senator Oluremi Tinubu said that this year’s celebration calls for sober reflection because many children are still victims of insurgents who are brutally subjected to abuses, (physically, psychologically and sexually), with many becoming refugees in their own country.

the former Lagos first lady said,“Celebrations should not be restricted to fanfare but should serve as a wake-up call to parents and guardians on the need for protective parentage. It becomes important that we advocate protection for all children while warding off vices. Our children are our tomorrow, our linear contact, who deserves utmost protection,” .

Tinubu said, “It is universally recognized that all children are entitled to protection and education as enshrined in International Conventions, our own Constitution and the Child Rights Act passed by the National Assembly and some states of the federation. Our best efforts at survival and development will amount to nothing if children are continually abused, as it harms their lives, if such laws are not enforced.”
