  "summary": "Nigeria's President Bola Tinubu has unveiled a four-year action plan aimed at eliminating child labour, which he considers a national development priority. The plan, launched at the National Dialogue on Advancing the Implementation of Nigeria’s National Child Labour Policy and National Action Plan (2026-2030), focuses on strengthening labour administration and inspection systems, child protection mechanisms, and interventions targeting poverty, unemployment, inadequate access to quality education, and social exclusion. Tinubu emphasized that the government is addressing the root causes of child labour, as the practice not only hampers a child's education but also denies them opportunities, confidence, health, and the chance to contribute fully to national development.",
