AIFES executive director, Legborsi Pyagbara, spoke in Port Harcourt, yesterday during meeting with key stakeholders, civil society organizations (CSOs) and community leaders, to mark
the 2023 Indigenous People’s Day.

Pyagbara used the occasion to call on the federal government to sign on to the 169 and also sign on to the UN Right on Indigenous People as well as set up a national action plan on the implementation of the United Nations Declarations on Rights of Indigenous People.

He said: “During debate at the UN General Assembly in 2007, Nigeria abstained from voting in the UN Right for Indigenous People. We are still using the opportunity of this day to call on the Nigerian government to sign on to R-Convention 169 and also sign on to the UN Right on Indigenous People.

We are also calling on the Nigerian government to set up a national action plan on the implementation of the United Nations Declarations on Rights of Indigenous People.”

The AIFES executive director further called on the federal government to establish centres for the promotion of inter-generational dialogue, to enable elders have avenues interact with young ones and impact on them.

He said: “We are also calling for the establishment of centres for the promotion of inter-generational dialogue. Without inter-generational dialogue, we lost everything we thought we had as a people because it takes the elders in our communities to tell us young people certain stories that we don’t know particularly when it comes to traditional knowledge.”

Anambra Sanctions School For Selling Prefect Post  The Anambra Government has imposed a one-month sanction on Blossom Fount School, Awka, for allegedly selling the position of head prefect during a student election.  This was disclosed in a statement on Saturday by the Commissioner for Education, Prof. Ngozi Chuma-Udeh.  According to the commissioner, the school reportedly demanded N5,000 from each pupil aspiring to become head prefect in the primary section.  Chuma-Udeh condemned the act, describing it as an attempt to “sell the psyche of the children to the highest bidder from the cradle.”  According to her, such practices are unacceptable under the administration of Gov. Chukwuma Soludo.  She said that an investigation was ongoing to examine the school’s broader management practices, with the possibility of further actions based on the findings.
