Is Prostitution A Crime Under The Nigerian Constitution ? by Canisma(m): 7:10pm On Nov 28, 2010
It is known as one of the oldest profession in the world. Some countries like belgium and guatamala has recognised it in thier laws. But then, is there any law that condones or prohibits prostitution in Nigeria ?

Well then, if it is not categorically outlawed, why the frequent police harrasment ? Why are the lawmakers not saying/doing anything about it ? Infact why is everybody being hypocritical about it ? WWWHHHYYY.

NIGERIAN CONSTITUTION IN YORUBA VERSION


Ayanbode Oje a member of the Change Movement Nigeria translated the Nigerian Constitution (1999) into Yoruba Language and We have decided to make the document available to everyone for free.

Yoruba /ˈjɒrʊbə/ (natively èdè Yorùbá) is a Niger–Congo language spoken in West Africa. The number of speakers of Yoruba was estimated at around 20 million in the 1990s.The native tongue of the Yoruba people is spoken, among other languages, in Nigeria, Benin, and Togo and in communities in other parts of Africa, Europe and the Americas. A variety of the language, Lucumi, is the liturgical language of the Santería religion of the Caribbean. It is most closely related to the Owo and Itsekiri language (spoken in the Niger-Delta) and Igala spoken in central Nigeria. (Wikipedia – Yoruba Language)

Our objective is to empower the truly disenfranchised, the oppressed, the voiceless to be able to critically engage in participatory democracy and open governance. Please, this document is not for sale and it is to be effectively distributed for the benefit of all.

We are calling for volunteers to help translate the constitution into other indigenous languages in Nigeria. We are currently working on an audio version of the constitution.
