Nigerian rights commission to head probe over alleged abortions... a special panel whose role will include investigating the Nigeria military for running a secret abortion programme in its fight against Islamist insurgents in the northeast has been set up. The Nigerian military had refused to carry out an investigation claiming the report was not true.. But in a counter opinion, The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC), which is appointed by the government, said in a statement posted on its website on Tuesday that it would launch a special panel next week in Abuja to investigate the Nigeria Army. "The National Human Rights Commission will on Tuesday (7th February 2023) inaugurate a Special Independent Investigative Panel on human rights violations in the implementation of counterinsurgency operations in the northeast," NHRC said "The panel will, among other things focus on investigating Reuters report which alleged that Nigerian Military was involved in abortion of many pregnancies in the North East in the last 10 years," NHRC said. The seven-member panel will be chaired by retired Supreme Court judge Abdu Aboki and includes a retired major general, a representative from the Nigerian Bar Association and an expert in obstetrics and gynaecology, NHRC said. It was not immediately clear how long the investigation would last and what the panel would do with its findings. NHCR has no powers to prosecute human rights violators but can recommend prosecution for offenders. https://www.aljazeera.com/tag/boko-haram/ 1 Like

Lolz. While I was in the Northeast, we had a walk-in and one of the terms he gave was we need to relocate his 23 children and 3 wives.   . The shocker was that the oldest was 17 while the youngest was 9 months.This man would have been a beneficiary of such programme, if truly it exists. |
