Abstract

There exist prospects and opportunities for the protection of Reproductive Health Rights in the Nigerian Legal System. Nigeria has ratified severalInternational/Regional Human Rights instruments which seek to protect reproductive rights, there are some Human Rights provisions contained in the constitution, some other provisions on Federal and State Legislations that are gender based. There are also the reports on Millennium Development Goals and National Reproductive Health Policies which shows that there are prospects and opportunities that the government can protect women’s reproductive health and rights in Nigeria. Nonetheless, there is undoubtedly room for improvement in the protection of this peculiar genre of rights of women in Nigeria and this work proffers country-centric recommendations which cut across options of amending relevant Constitutional and Federal/State legislations on Reproductive Health Rights. The country will certainly benefit from an implementation of the National Reproductive Health policies that have evolved overtime and domesticating some of the international and regional instruments that has been ratified like CEDAW whilst enacting a National Reproductive Health Law by National Assembly which will be uniformly adopted and implemented  throughout the country.

Abstract

There is no doubt about the surge in the cases of malaria infections and other diseases in Nigeria despite the huge investment in media and communication campaigns to reduce the spread. The objective of this paper is to assess the media and communication techniques usedin campaigns against malaria infections in Nigeria, identify the loopholes and search for possible solutions to existing challenges associated with media and communication. The study adopted the survey research design using quantitative method to elicit data from the study population. The total study or sample population was 643 respondents. The questionnaire was used to reach out to the respondents for the quantitative research. The quantitative data collected was analyzed using simple tables and percentages. Findings indicated that the media channels and communication techniques in the preventive/curative campaigns against malaria infections in Nigeria include use of limited number of media for a large population and use of scientific and sophisticated medical terms in communicating the malaria campaigns among other challenges. The study concludes and recommends that sponsors, donors and partners in the intervention of malaria spread in Nigeria should partner with communication agencies that should suggest use of multi-media approaches and correct interpretations of scientific terms in the preventive and curative malaria campaigns in Nigeria.
