Thanks, Alene.

The work you do at Legal Impact for Chickens is a resounding success story. 

Thanks for your interest!

Yes

Of course, the appeal was filed by an environmental NGO, but it deals with the threshold issue of locus standi, which is critical in every court action. The decision seems to support the position that an NGO can bring an action against a government agency for failing in its statutory duty. It can be imported and used in any animal welfare litigation when a defendant brings an application for dismissal or striking out on the grounds of locus standi.  

There are serious plans to kickstart litigation for animal welfare in Nigeria, pending the repeal (preferred) or amendment of obsolete and outdated legislation affecting animals. I am already canvassing for that with some legislators. 

Any new legislation should contain express provisions for the jurisdiction of courts and the right to sue when government agencies fail to protect animals. This will ensure that threshold issues are expressly addressed in statutes and do not constitute a delay in court actions.

We are past 2nd of September. Any hopes?

You didn't factor in the response of the Nigerian Government in mitigating the loss suffered by such emigration There is a new policy in the pipeline If it has not been implemented, though The policy is to the effect that some number of years must be spent in Nigeria before some relevant training and professional certificates will be released to you These certificates are relevant for employment By the time it is released to the nurses, another cycle is repeated for the new new batch nurses This enables the Nigerian public to enjoy the services of the nurses before they emigrate. When they travel out, another corp comes in and compulsorily serves the public before emigration.

A nice read Looking forward to a similar project for Equines in Nigeria.

Kudos to EA Nigeria management I will say they are the best on the African continent

I appreciate the insight Mvk I understand better now I applied for the incubation and I live in Lagos, Nigeria. I was confused when I saw the high-priority list on their website.

Rakefet Cohen Ben-Arye, I love the industry you put in the report. A rich one, it is.

Hello Joey I am Chukwubuikem from Nigeria. I must confess you are doing a good job. I get your emails and that of Kristina It's enriching I find it disturbing that no African country is in your high-priority areas in 2024 despite the mirage of global issues weighing the continent down and which is deserving of help from its dwellers and international organizations to solve such issues.

Hi Hayven,

I received your message with much warmth and satisfaction. It is pleasing that my work is being appreciated. I will continue the fight to create equality between Animal and Human Rights. I look forward to connecting with you.
