A civil society group, Kimpact Development Initiative (KDI), has launched an online platform for tracking human rights violations.
The Executive Director of KDI, Bukola Idowu, said at the launch on Friday that the the platform, ‘Naija Civic Space,’ was borne out of the need to “move civic space conversation from isolated reports to structured evidence, from concern to action, and from silence to visibility.”
Mr Idowu said the platforms came against the backdrop of increased violations, especially insecurity bedevilling the country.
He added that it was important to track the violations because “Nigeria is truly bleeding,” referencing the recent abduction of several pupils, students and school staff members in Oyo State.
On 15 May, PREMIUM TIMES reported armed hoodlums riding motorcycles attacked Baptist Nursery and Primary School, Yawota, near Alawusa, as well as Community Grammar School and L.E.A Primary School in Esiele, in Oriire Local Government Area of Oyo State.
