You do not have to be a lawyer to know your rights. 💡

Every citizen has a role in the justice sector; there is no fence to sit on.
You are either a stakeholder or a victim.

CSLS is committed to making sure you’re always the former.

Arresting a Family Member in Place of a Suspect is ILLEGAL in Nigeria!

This is called Arrest in Lieu and it happens more than you think.

It is an illegal arrest and a violation of fundamental human rights.
