Prominent human rights lawyer Femi Falana has filed a bold application urging the court to dismiss charges against underage children, arguing for their right to free, compulsory education.
Falana, renowned for his advocacy, asserts that prosecuting minors undermines their rights, spotlighting the nation’s commitment to the Universal Basic Education Act.
A seasoned lawyer is pushing for the court to not only dismiss charges but to mandate state provisions for education, calling it a constitutional duty.
The case has sparked debate, with supporters rallying for a society where no child faces criminalization over a lack of educational opportunities.
