The Community Court of Justice of ECOWAS has, once again, shown its resolve to uphold its protective mandate and advance the safeguards of the African Charter and other applicable human rights treaties for the benefits of all citizens of ECOWAS. It is hoped that Nigeria would show leadership by complying fully with the recent order of the court mandating it to "conduct ‘appropriate inquiries’ into the disappearance of five Nigerians on 13th October 2010 after they were taken into police custody in Benin, Edo State, Nigeria".
CJHR is a Committee of the Nigerian Branch of the International Law Association http://www.ila-hq.org/. The CJHR aims at taking a pragmatic approach to human rights and justice as mutually inclusive concepts with a view to understanding how and why the concept of justice for human rights abuses enhances or diminishes human rights protection. The Committee is currently chaired by Dr. Amos Enabulele. See Enabulele's profile @: https://ng.linkedin.com/in/amos-enabulele-8b3481104
