#Addressing Child Abduction & Adoption Challenges In Nigeria: A Call For Reform By Amiida Fraser

The abduction of children for adoption highlights a critical gap in the adoption system, necessitating immediate intervention by the State Ministries of Women Affairs in collaboration with the Federal Ministry of Women Affairs. There is an urgent need for these institutions to develop robust policies and simplified processes that enable genuine, qualified families to adopt children without turning to illegal or criminal methods.

The current inefficiencies in the adoption process have created opportunities for unscrupulous individuals to exploit vulnerable children and desperate families. To address this, state governments should establish comprehensive screening facilities within the relevant departments and expedite the adoption process. Reducing the timeline to just a few months, while maintaining rigorous background checks and evaluations, can help ensure only sincere families are approved.

By streamlining and strengthening the adoption framework, children can gain access to better lives, education, and opportunities to fulfill their potential in a stable and nurturing environment. Furthermore, this initiative could serve as a strategic approach to alleviating economic hardship for struggling families and giving many children a chance to thrive in more supportive homes.
