Biodun Ogunyemi et al., « Perceived Relevance of Human Rights and Peace Education in Post-Military Nigeria », Institut français de recherche en Afrique, ID : 10.4000/books.ifra.911
This survey investigated Nigerians’ perception of recent calls for Human Rights and Peace Education (HRPE) to entrench democratic culture in the country. Respondents were 1122 Lagos residents who came from the country’s six geopolitical zones. Majority of them saw the interrelated problems of underdevelopment, incessant conflicts and human rights abuse as products of bad leadership, but were sceptical of the capability of elected officiais to manage the crisis-ridden polity. They supported emergent calls for introducing human rights, peace education and sustainable development themes into school programmes to complement the activities of non-governmental organizations (NOGs) in the country.
