NHRC declares emergency on treatment of complaints
The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has declared a state of emergency on complaints treatment process in the commission.

Ovrawah who stated this during a meeting with staff of the commission recently in Abuja, noted that the geometric increase in the number of complaints now being received by the commission and the statutory responsibility of the commission to ensure prompt and diligent consideration of all cases necessitated the recent redeployment of more staff to the Department of Protection and Investigation.
