Nigerian women make up the majority of African human trafficking victims in Europe, with most forced into prostitution. Numerous secret societies run the smuggling — and authorities say they're increasingly violent.

One of the Nigerian Mafia's strongholds is said to be the southern Italian village of Volturno. Often a Nigerian 'Madame' is in charge of a group of young women. Behind her - a well organised network of violent operatives smuggling young women from Africa to Europe.

Nigeria has the lowest number of female parliamentarians in Africa according to the UN. The country’s most prominent female presidential candidate, Oby Ezekwesili, abruptly dropped out of the race. And many female candidates struggle to make it past the party primaries. So why do Nigerian women have difficulty thriving in the political arena?

Since the Senate bowed to popular demand for the electronic transmission of election results, several civil society groups in the country have been jubilant.

Prior to this week’s U-turn by the upper legislature, civil society organisations had carried out protests and mounted pressure on the Senate to yield to the demands of the people.

This they did with the aid of the Nigerian media in which Arise News Channel played a prominent role.

Yet, while some CSOs see the U-turn by the Senate as a victory for all, others see it as a first step in the repositioning of the nation’s democracy.

It also remains to be seen if President #MuhammaduBuhari will give his assent to the Electoral Act (Amendment) Bill or not.

#ClementNwankwo, Executive Director at the Policy and Legal Advocacy Centre, discusses what more needs to be done to strengthen the nation’s democratic institutions.

He will also be telling us how civil society intends to work with INEC to ensure that it has the adequate IT infrastructure and support to transmit results electronically nationwide in the next general election.

They are arguably the changemakers Nigeria needs to move forward, people below the age of thirty-five, who are leaving the footprints of change in their communities. Forget the stereotypes of youth recklessness and risk-taking and remember the likes of Honourable #MathiasAliu, who at the age of thirty-four, is the deputy majority leader at the Abuja Municipal Area Council and the councillor representing the ward of Wuse in Nigeria's federal capital territory. So what difference is he making and is his voice loud enough to be heard above the din of Nigeria's ruling gerontocracy?

Almost a year into his second term, Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari's administration faces accusations of corruption, human rights abuses and that his government is attacking basic freedoms.
DW's Tim Sebastian met Lai Mohammed, Nigeria's minister of Information and culture in London to discuss the state of Nigerian politics and the steps that the government is taking to address the concern of international bodies and civil society.
Mohammed dismissed the accusations as simple "confusion" and "misrepresentation" of the situation in Nigeria. According to the minister, the Buhari "administration, in particular, has been very sensitive to the issue of human rights".
But while Mohammad says that "people have been punished" for human rights violations in Nigeria, Human Rights Watch and the United Nations disagree. The UN Special Rapporteur on extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions, Agnes Callamard, has pointed out that the attempts of Nigeria to address its record of abuses have been entirely insufficient: "... the lack of effective investigations, the absence of meaningful prosecution, the militarisation of policing... are compounded by the lack of transparency."
