An advocate of good governance, Chief Uba Michael, has called for more attention on girl-child education, saying it is one of the ways out of Nigeria’s problems.
Michael said this at the 25th anniversary celebration of the Women Trafficking and Child Labour Eradication Foundation, held in Abuja.
News reports that the US Department of State in a 2024 Trafficking in Persons Report, the government of Nigeria has not fully met the minimum standard for the elimination of trafficking but is making significant efforts to do so.
