Keywords:
Persons living with disabilities (PLWDs) are imbued with inalienable human rights and have talents and potential that would aid in the Nigerian governments unceasing pursuit of economic development. However, under Nigerias Fourth Republic since 1999, implementation of disability laws has been lethargic. In Improving Disability Laws under Nigeria's Fourth Republic: Ten Measured Steps into the Future, Philip C. Aka and Joseph A. Balogun explore measures for improving the capacity of the Nigerian national government to implement regional and global treaties related to disability that are human rights-centric. They emphasize the need for a human rights focus and for the Nigerian government to implement laws that support the potential of PLWDs, including their contributions to socioeconomic development.

Recenzijas

"Commonly, academics in their research projects provide theories to explicate major issues in society. Accordingly, these distinguished veteran scholars, Professors Joseph A. Balogun and Philip C. Aka, provide theories aimed at guaranteeing equal advantage of all human rights to persons with disabilities as contained in the UN Convention on the Rights of People with Disabilities signed by Nigeria in 2007. They urge Nigeria to enshrine the preceding rights instrument in her constitution and ratify the Protocol of the African Charter on Human and Peoples Rights on this matter. In this way, Nigeria would integrate these often marginalized citizens with disabilities into her development agenda. Overall, this is an invaluable book on human rights discourse in Nigeria and the Global South. -- E. Ike Udogu, Appalachian State University
