2 2. Please a) describe positive legislative/institutional measures taken to protect peaceful protesters, including against agents provocateurs and/or counter-demonstrators; and b) provide one or more examples where peaceful protesters were effectively protected. Answer One of the legislative measures taken to protect peaceful protest is the enactment of the fundamental Human Right enforcement procedure rule The new rule introduced municipal, regional and international bill of rights. Cap T14 of the Trade Unions Act Laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria provides in Section 43 It shall be lawful for one or more persons, acting on their own behalf or on behalf of a trade union or registered federation of trade unions or of an individual employer or firm in contemplation or furtherance of a trade dispute, to attend at or near a house or place where a person resides or works or carries on business or happens to be, if they so peacefully persuading any person to work or abstain from working. (2) Accordingly, the doing of anything declared by subsection (1) of this section to be lawful shall not constitute an offence under any law in force in Nigeria or any part thereof and in particular shall not constitute an offence under section 366 of the Criminal Code or any corresponding enactment in force in any part of Nigeria. Similarly, during the January 2012 labour led strike action, the police were seen around protesters just to provide protection and to maintain law and order 3. Please describe measures taken to ensure that any restrictions on the free exercise of the right to freedom of peaceful assembly are in accordance with your obligations under international human rights law (proportionality test and due process guarantees). Please explain the legal status of spontaneous assemblies. Affected individuals / groups may seek redress at the courts on the infringements of their rights either directly or through the Human Rights Commission 4. Please a) describe positive legislative/institutional measures taken to ensure accountability for i) arbitrary restrictions to hold assemblies; ii) arbitrary or excessive use of force by law enforcement officials against peaceful demonstrators; and iii) violence by agents provocateurs and/or counterdemonstrators; and b) provide one or more examples for each of these situations where such measures have been implemented. The establishment of a Human Rights Commission 5. In this context, please describe positive legislative/institutional measures taken to build and strengthen the human rights capacity of administrative and law enforcement officials in your country. 6. Please describe one or more recent examples where the right to freedom of peaceful assembly may have not been respected and the reasons for citing this example(s). In particular, please describe challenges faced in the implementation of laws, policies or programmes for the promotion and protection of the right to freedom of peaceful assembly in your country. Please provide details of any
3 lessons learnt in that regard. Briefly evaluate, in both law and practice, the enjoyment of the right to freedom of peaceful assembly in your country, including by women, individuals facing discrimination or violence because of their sexual orientation and gender identity, as well as persons with disabilities, espousing minority or dissenting views or beliefs, and belonging to other groups at risk. Answer: A recent example is the decision of the National Industrial Court based on the ex parte application by the Federal Government of Nigeria to prevent the Nigerian Labour Congress and Trade Union Congress from embarking on a nationwide strike in January This was an attempt by government to infringe on the right to peaceful assembly. Similarly, on the 16 th of January soldiers were deployed in some Nigerian Cities and Towns in the Southwest and North-West zones to forestall the assembly of protesters. This is a fundamental breach of the right of the citizens to assembly and freely express their views
4 Right to freedom of association: 7. Please a) describe positive legislative/institutional measures taken to facilitate the exercise of the right to freedom of association by national and international organizations (e.g. are associations free to decide on their objectives, activities and board composition?); and b) provide one or more recent examples where the right to freedom of association has been adequately enjoyed in your country and the reasons for citing this example(s). Answer Chapter C23 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (Promulgation) Act Laws of the Federal of Nigeria 2004 Section 40 provides Every person shall be entitled to assemble freely and associate with other person, and in particular he may form or belong to any political party, trade union or any other association for the protection of his interests; Provided that the provisions of this section shall not derogate from the powers conferred by this constitution on the Independent National Electoral Commission with respect to political parties to which that commission does not accord recognition. Chapter 8, Article 10 of the African Charter on Human and Peoples Rights provides for Right to Freedom of Association. This right has also been most defined and elaborated in International labour law globally to create international obligations for the states that ratified them In Nigeria the Public Order Act has been whittled down by the Court of Appeal pronouncement. Hence citizens no longer require police permit before they can freely assemble. In the case Anigboro v. Sea Trucks Ltd (1995) 6 NWLR (pt.399) 35, the Court of Appeal held that it is not for the employer to choose a trade union for his employees. That the summary dismissal of the workers who remained adamant as to their choice of a trade union was violative of their right to freedom of association. In Egri v. Uperi (1973) 1 SC 299, the Supreme Court speculated that it may be contrary to the right to freedom of association for a court to compel a wife to return to her husband. The Constitution of Nigeria (2004) guarantees the right to freedom of association and peaceful assembly to all its citizens including children. In addition the Child s Rights Act of Nigeria contains adequate provisions to ensure the freedom of association and assembly by all children. b) A recent example is that of Nigeria Labour Congress and Trade Union Congress that called on workers to embark on a strike action. The workers responded to this call, indicating their membership of the bodies and the ability to exercise their right to freedom of association 8. Please detail the procedures to be followed to establish an association in your country, including the legal grounds upon which an application for registration can be rejected, where applicable. Please a) describe positive legislative/institutional measures taken to ensure a non-discriminatory, expeditious, easily accessible and inexpensive registration process; and b) provide one or more examples where such measures have been implemented. Are there effective remedies in case the
5 registration is denied or delayed? Please indicate, if available, how many people have pursued these remedies, and the result thereof.

Section 5 of the trade Union Act provides that where an application for the registration of trade union is received by the Registrar, the following provisions of this section shall apply; Provided that if the application appears to the Registrar to be defective in any respect, he shall notify the applicant accordingly and shall take no further action in relation thereto until the application has been amended to his satisfaction or a fresh application is made in place thereof, (2)The Registrar shall cause a notice of the application to be published in the Federal Gazette, stating that objection to the objections to the registration of the trade union in question may be submitted to him in writing during the period of three months beginning with the date of the Gazette in which the notice is published.

(7) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Act, the Registrar shall on the coming into effect of this section of this Act, register the trade unions specified in Part A and Part C of the Third schedule to this Act; and on such registration the said trade unions shall have all the powers and duties of a trade union registered under this Act. If the registration is denied or delayed, the person seeking to register the said Trade Union could appeal to the Minister of Labour, and if unsuccessful, appeal to a court of competent jurisdiction. The Legal grounds upon which an application for registration can be rejected includes i. where a trade union wishes to be registered under a name identical with that of any existing trade union. ii. Where a trade union seeks to be registered under a name containing any words which in the opinion of the registrar are deceptive or objectionable. iii. no trade union shall be registered to represent workers or employers in a place where there already exists a trade union Section 2 (1) of the Trade Union Act provides that a trade Union shall not perform any act in furtherance of the purposes for which it has been formed unless it has registered under the Act.
