Children\u2019s day is a commemorative date celebrated annually in honour of children as today\u2019s hope of tomorrow\u2019s leadership and greatness, also as a reminder to all about the importance of childhood and better life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Hence, the importance placed on children by each nation is said to be the determining metric of its future. According to the 2021 UN World children\u2019s day message, children\u2019s day offers us (as a person, people and a nation) an inspirational entry-point to advocate, promote and celebrate children\u2019s right, translating into dialogues and actions that will build and guarantee a better world and future for every child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its noteworthy to state that as a people and as a nation, Nigeria has failed her future leaders with about 18.5 million Nigerian children not having access to education in Nigeria (UNICEF 2022)<\/em>; over 70% of those in school are not learning (UNICEF 2022)<\/em>; insecurity on a relentless campaign; the lack of basic necessities (such as good food, shelter and clothing) and amenities; rampaging child trafficking, labour, abuse and violence amongst many others.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Children\u2019s day is an annual national celebration in all the thirty (36) States of Nigeria as well as the Federal Capital Territory, however, the Child\u2019s Right Act of 2003 (CRA) has only been domesticated in twenty-nine (29) States and the Federal Capital Territory, while the same remains unapplicable in about seven (7) States of the nation, namely: Adamawa, Bauchi, Gombe, Kebbi, Yobe, Kano and Zamfara States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This article shall focus on creating awareness on the rights of a child as enshrined in the Child\u2019s Right Act, 2003, as the enshrined rights should be the key performance indicator for every state and nation and a focal point for every year\u2019s children\u2019s day celebration. The opening section of the Act provides that \u201cin every action concerning a child, whether undertaken by an individual, public or private body, institution or service, court of law or administrative or legislative authority, the best interest of the child shall take eminent priority and attention over all others in every subject matter. The Act defines a child as one under eighteen (18) years of age. (S. 277 CRA).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Conclusion<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Children and young persons are public investments and hope of better continuity of a nation; hence, it is no herculean prediction that the future of a nation is wholly dependent and forged by the quality and standard of her investments into the nurturing, health, environment, education and general welfare of her children and young persons. Therefore, promoting and protecting the rights of children and young person should not never be a topic to debate or be decimated to an annual celebration, rather, it should be the topmost priority for every parent, guardian, government, institutions, organizations and the world in general.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
