PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITIES AND CHILD RIGHTS PROTECTION IN NIGERIA'S MULTI-LEGAL SYSTEM

Abstract

It is undeniable that the idea of parental responsibility came from the English legal system. The concept's usefulness seems to be where its significance lies. The purpose of this essay is to examine the idea of parental responsibility in the context of Nigeria. This paper aims to investigate the feasibility of eliminating parental responsibility in Nigeria. Notwithstanding its practicality in providing legal guarantees for the protection of children, the Nigerian legal system's intricacy may lead to certain contextual paradoxes. Thus, in the framework of Nigeria's legal system, which is predicated on legal pluralism, this essay examines novel paradigms and possible anomalies.
