<p>The Commission has always warned parents and guardians to desist from any action or inaction that will lead to violation of the rights of any child saying, &#8220;Child neglect or abuse is a grave human rights violation that attracts severe punishment for any culprits&#8221;.</p>
<p> ;</p>
<p>The Executive Secretary of the Commission, Tony Ojukwu Esq. gave this warning in Abuja over the weekend while reacting to reports of alleged abandonment of a 2-year-old sick child, Master Abdullahi by his father in Barda Ajiwa town of Batagarawa Local Government Area of Katsina State.</p>

<p>Earlier, the Katsina state Coordinator of NHRC, Barrister Adamu Umaru Kasimu had swung into action upon receiving a petition from the family&#8217;s neighbors. He visited the family compound immediately for the necessary investigations in line with the Commission&#8217;s mandate and Standing Order and Rules of Procedure (STORP).</p>
<p> ;</p>
<p><a href="https://www.shrm.org/resourcesandtools/tools-and-samples/how-to-guides/pages/howtoconductaninvestigation.aspx">While conducting investigations into the matter,</a> the Coordinator found that the mother of the sick child was separated from the father and she has no money to take him to the hospital for medical treatment.</p>
<p> ;</p>
<p>He gathered that the mother of the sick child had informed her estranged husband about the health condition of their son and he reportedly did not show any concern.</p>
<p> ;</p>
<p>In a bid to rescue the abandoned child and further sensitize the affected community on the provisions of the Child&#8217;s Rights Act 2003 and other human rights issues, the Coordinator held a meeting with the community and religious leaders emphasizing the readiness of the Commission to ensure that culprits of child abuse are made to face the full wrath of the law.</p>
<p> ;</p>
<p>The Coordinator used the opportunity to educate the Community on international treaties on the Rights of the Childlike Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), to which Nigeria is a signatory.</p>
<p>Following the efforts of the Commission, the Father of the victim was arrested by the Police while the baby was admitted at Federal Medical Center Katsina for proper medical treatment.</p>
