Privacy Law for Nigerian Women: Pregnancy, Birth and LGBT
Main Article Content
Abstract
This paper discusses the effect of the Nigerian laws which criminalize abortion and homosexuality on the privacy right of the individual. Part four analyses privacy right in Nigeria and also discusses infringement of the right to privacy by Nigerian law that criminalizes abortion. The author makes suggestions on the way Nigeria will recalibrate its privacy right protection by relying on extant privacy jurisprudence in other jurisdictions as a model. It is therefore recommended that Nigeria should amend its anti-abortion and anti-homosexual laws and join the League of Nations, especially those mentioned in this work, to protect the privacy of all Nigerians — heterosexual as well as homosexuals and women.
