Item EXAMINING THE CONCEPT OF RIGHT TO LIFE IN POST-COLONIAL AFRICA; NIGERIA AS A CASE STUDY(Griffith College, 2016) Aanuoluw Apo Enoch, OjotisaThis academic research is written on the basis of addressing the failing lawfulness, concerning certain actions or indexes which end up as dangers to life of humans in Africa, especially in Nigeria, which is the case study of this research. It has so far been intense in the post-colonial era of Nigeria, that there is an imperative necessity for the intercontinental public to step up aid to the Nigerian people, so as to thwart the breach of right to life. This academic research is not baying for a recolonization of Nigeria. Rather, international establishments such as the African Union, the United Nations, ought to step up their enforceability laws, treaties or international instruments, in other to secure the esteem, creation, and applicability of some laws on the right to life. How can Nigeria, which happens to be one of the top oil-selling countries in the world fail to provide shelter, food, clean and accessible water for its own people? Events such as mentioned above are what in reality constitute a desecration of the right to life. So therefore, this academic research will expose its readers to some events in which there have been judicial and legislative proceedings, pronouncements and decisions on how the right to life would cease to be violated. This academic work does not claim to touch all areas under the scope of right to life.
