Devastated by news of abduction of school children in Niger State this morning, coming so soon after the Kebbi attack. No child should ever face violence in school, at home, or in their community. Their immediate and safe return is critical. @UNICEF will continue working with authorities to keep every child safe and protected.

To ensure every child receives life-saving vaccines, celebrity actors & leading music stars from across West & Central Africa have come together to release a new song titled ‘#NoMoreZeroDose ’ . Join @UNICEF_Nigeria, to help bring childhood immunization back on track.

At the launch of the report on the national assessment of the situation of children and young adults deprived of liberty, UNICEF Deputy Representative @DrRownakKhan called for strengthened justice systems to ensure every child in Nigeria has access to child-friendly justice.

Devastated by the tragic loss of young lives at Saint Academy, Busa Buji, Plateau State. Children, full of dreams were writing exams when the school building collapsed. Deepest condolences to families affected. Urgent action is needed to ensure safety of our children in schools

Spoke to students visiting the UN-Must confess, they are the toughest to speak to-you really need to make the convo interesting to grab their attention-but that's when you think hey, isn't this Communication 101-keep it simple, keep it engaging, keep it to the point #ChildrensDay

Following the recent floods in Kaduna, cash transfers have become a lifeline for many families, providing them with the means to survive and keep their heads above water. Thanks to @eu_echo for supporting vulnerable families in northwest Nigeria. READ👇🏻: unicef.org/nigeria/storie…

Young girls and women cannot thrive if they do not have access to good nutrition. This #Womensday, I am calling for investment in essential nutrition services for women and young girls.

This year’s celebration coinciding with the start of the World Cup is a great reminder that when it comes to children’s rights, there can be only one team! It is our responsibility to protect the rights of every child. #WorldChildrensDay.

#WorldChildrensDay is our yearly reminder that regardless of gender, race, religion, or other status, every child has the right to be included, and protected against all forms of discrimination. For every child, inclusion!
