Girl-child campaign

A report by the united Nations Children's fund (UNICEF) has Nigeria's current numbĂ©r of child's brides at 22 million  which is said to represent 40 per cent of such cases in West Africa and Central Africa and also predicted that 7 million more child bride will be added by 2050.

Many girls are given out in marriage before they turn 18 and this is clearly a violation of human right.

For the future of girls, it's important to domesticate the Child Right Act at all levels.
