The counterpart (the Legal Aid Council of Nigeria – LACON), its Director General and the PIU are committed, responsive and working well to undertake the project in difficult conditions due to the security situation in Kaduna State. Enhance access to legal services: The project has enhanced access by decentralizing legal services which were previously only provided by one state center in Kaduna South. Kaduna State’s 2nd rank, including the established centers, in a nation-wide performance review (measured so far by the number of cases completed) opposed to a 17th rank when excluding the established centers proves the demand on the ground and the enhanced access to services. 1. Over the course of the project, pilot centers have been tested in 20 different locations all across Kaduna State and have been closely monitored in order to determine which of the established centers should be sustained after project closure given demand and existing capacities. 2. 5 of these centers will be sustained by LACON given its scarce resources. They were selected as to provide services to the local population and to the centers that will be sustained by local governments. 3. Front-line staff (legal aid lawyers, paralegals and Youth Corps volunteers) across Kaduna State has received training on ADR and specific legal topics to provide quality services. 4. Lawyers/legal service providers from the Local Governments have been included in these training sessions to ensure for a smooth continuation of legal service provision after project closure. 5. A nation-wide performance measurement and management system was introduced which allows LACON management to monitor all centers’ performances (including the established legal aid centers) and quickly identify performance gaps and possible shortcomings in access to services. 6. Quality of services will be evaluated by a pilot ‘customer comment card’ collecting feedback from clients on services received. The pilot will compare 6 states from six different geo-political areas, including Kaduna State. Enable them enforce their socio-economic rights and to resolve civil matter disputes: Socio-economic rights (or economic, social and cultural rights) have been addressed by the project through various outreach and awareness campaigns. This was done via interactive workshops targeting local and religious chiefs and community leaders to raise awareness for these rights and enable them to conflicts related to these rights. Further, the local population was reached via road shows, radio broadcasts and NGO awareness raising activities, such as drama plays. Similarly, civil matters have been addressed via interactive workshops, radio jingles and broadcasts, road shows and NGO awareness raising activities. Further, staff of the established centers has reached out to other entities, such as women’s organizations, police, church, health centers and attended local markets to inform staff and market participants about availability and scope of legal services. In addition, the project is undertaking a Legal Needs Assessment which should give a better insight into the local population’s perception and level of trust with regards to legal services. This will allow LACON to address challenges identified by local communities and better tailor services and awareness/outreach activities to better equip local population to ask for their rights. 2/13/2015 Page 2 of 7 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report NIGERIA: ACCESS TO JUSTICE FOR THE POOR (P115863) Results Project Development Objective Indicators PHINDPDOTBL Number of functioning legal aid clinics in Kaduna State (Number, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 10.00 15.00 12.00 Date 12-Feb-2009 12-Jul-2013 01-Jan-2015 24-Dec-2014 Comments Target met. At the beginning of the project only the Kaduna Center was providing services, no decentralized services were offered. Over the course of the project, decentralized services through legal aid clinics were piloted in 20 locations across Kaduna State: Zaria, Sabon Gar, Kudan, Ahmadu Bello University, Kaduna South, Igabi, Kajuru, Jema'a, Kaura, Kachia, Giwa, Ikara, Brinin Gwari, Kubau, Lere, Chikun, Zango-Kataf, Sanga, Jaba, and Kagarko. Demand for these services and their quality was closely monitored and due to poor performance, the center in Kaura was closed, respectively merged with the close by center in Jema'a in January 2014. That said, 19 centers have been fully functional throughout 2014. From its own resources and existing capacities, LACON will only be able to support 5, respectively 6 out of the 19 centers: Kaduna South, Sabon Gari, Jema'a, Chikun, the center at the Ahmadu Bello University, and the office in Igabi which will be merged with LACON's Kaduna State Office in Kawo. These centers were chosen because they are already staffed with LACON lawyers, are performing above average and are located across all three senatorial zones which puts them in a good position to assist those centers that will be maintained by Local Government. By the end of 2014, the heads of Local Governments in Giwa, Lere, Sanga, Zaria, Jaba, Kudan, Zangon-Kataf, Birnin Gwari, and Jere have expressed their interest to maintain the centers at their local governments, in parts they have directed financial means accordingly. As no interest was expressed from the Local Governments as per the centers in Ikara, Kuban, Kachia and Kajuru these centers were closed by end of December 2014 following an exiting strategy.

Three senatorial centers - one in each of Kaduna State's three senatorial zones (Zaria, Kaduna South, Jema'a) have been refurbished, staffed and provide free legal aid services. Performance is above average. However, due to the project's scope services only cover civil cases. Other cases, such as criminal cases, are referred to the LACON State Office of Kaduna. Referrals have been done smoothly, no complaints from clients have been received.

There were no decentralized services offered at the time of the project's inauguration. Thus, the baseline reflects on all cases received by the Kaduna State Office in 2008 as the only measurement available. The original unit of measure at project inauguration was "percentage", in specific an increase of 40% in cases. Translated into the measure "number" the end target is 242 cases. Providing decentralized services via legal aid clinics across Kaduna State started in late 2011 and numbers of cases received have picked up significantly over time. In specific, 36 cases were received in 2012; 322 cases were received in 2013, and 830 cases were received in 2014. PHINDPDOTBL Number of poor and vulnerable groups who are aware of available legal aid service and who have trust in using these service providers (Percentage, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 0.00 -- 40.00 Date 12-Feb-2009 12-Jul-2013 31-Dec-2014 31-Dec-2014 Comments Target partially met. It is estimated that close to 850,000 people have been reached by radio programs, jingles and road shows (see table below). To estimate the level of trust in LACON and other service providers, the project is undertaking a Legal Needs Assessment. Its details should give better insight into the local population's perception. The consultant company submitted an interim report which was discussed with the company, the PIU and LACON management during the supervision mission in October 2014.

    8.26.2020 NIGERIA | Gunmen Attack School, Abduct Students One person was killed and others were abducted following an attack on the Damba- Kasaya Community in Chikun Local Government Area, Kaduna State, on Aug. 24. One person was killed and others, including several secondary school students, were abducted following an attack on the Damba-Kasaya Community in Chikun Local Government Area (LGA), Kaduna State, on Aug. 24. According to local reports, suspected Fulani militia arrived at the community in large numbers on motorcycles at around 7:45 a.m. They invaded the Prince Academy secondary school, where they abducted a teacher identified by Nigerian media as Christiana Madugu and at least four final year students who were preparing for their Junior Secondary School examination. Schools in Kaduna state recently reopened to enable secondary school children to sit their final examinations. The kidnapped children have been named as Happy Odoji, 14, Miracle Danjuma, 13, her sister Favour Danjuma, 9, who was abducted from her home, and Ezra Bako, 15. The abductors later contacted the family of the Danjuma sisters using the teacher’s telephone to confirm they had their children, but made no further demands. The gunmen also broke into the Aminchi Baptist Church, which they set ablaze after destroying musical instruments and the public address system, before abducting other villagers. Witnesses informed local media that the military briefly engaged the assailants and then withdrew for reasons that remain unclear. Unaware of this, villagers continued to pursue the attackers, who opened fire on them, killing a man later identified as Benjamin Auta.

    Civil and Environmental Research www.iiste.org ISSN 2224-5790 (Paper) ISSN 2225-0514 (Online) Vol.7, No.12, 2015 Association of People Living With HIV/AIDS as a Coping Strategy of Living with HIV/AIDS in Giwa and Kachia Local Government Areas, Kaduna State Bako, A. R; KIBON, A. U AND MICHEAL, H.Y Department of Geography, Ahmadu Bello University Zaria. ABSTRACT The aim of this study is to assess the membership association of People Living With HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) as a coping strategy to HIV/AIDS. The study was conducted in Giwa and Kachia Local Government Areas of Kaduna state. Data for this study were obtained through primary and secondary sources. Data also derived from the administration of a structured questionnaire and conduct of Focus Group Discussions (FGDs). A purposeful sampling method was used. This method selected those who are living with HIV/AIDS in both Local Government Areas. In all, 329 PLWHA were involved in the survey. The data were analyzed and presented in percentage distribution. The results obtained reveal that 42.2 percent of the respondents were males and 57.8 percent were females. About 48 percent of the respondents were married, 51.3 percent were in polygamous union. It was found out that 80% of PLWHA derived benefits in belonging to the association. Getting drugs, getting money, receive comfort, getting food, and receive advice are the benefits of belonging to the association and as a mean of coping with HIV/AIDS. This study recommends the empowering of PLWHA as a matter of urgency. This could be done by giving them grants, employment opportunities as well as provide vocational training especially to poor PLWHA women who do not have jobs.

[1 February 2021] * Issued as received, in the language(s) of submission only. GE.21-02585(E) A/HRC/46/NGO/99 The Human Rights Council must establish a Commission of Inquiry to Investigate Crimes Against Humanity Taking Place in Nigeria The United Nations has, since its foundation, promised to dedicate itself to the maintenance of peace and justice. It is therefore with great concern that the international community receives weekly reports of deadly violence and incessant attacks in Nigeria. To address the ongoing terrorist attacks perpetrated by Boko Haram, Fulani militants, and other militia, as well as the resulting large-scale displacement and tremendous loss of life, the Human Rights Council has a responsibility to establish an international investigative body to ensure accountability for these serious human rights violations. At the end of 2020, the Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court concluded that there is reasonable basis to believe that members of Boko Haram and its splinter groups have committed atrocities constituting crimes against humanity and war crimes.1 The Special Rapporteur on extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions has raised a similar alarm over the reported violence ongoing in Nigeria and growing numbers of internally displaced, and especially the failure of the government to prosecute perpetrators in accordance with domestic law.2 Addressed below are the different various crimes against humanity that highlight the need of establishing a Commission of Inquiry.
