| Abstract | Ebigbo through the example of Nigeria illustrates the sheer magnitude of the problem of child abuse and neglect in Africa. The traditional farming and trading Nigerian society, impacted by economic and political misery, cultural conflict, unemployment, illiteracy, and urban drift, is leading to exploited, uneducated, abused, malnourished children. Economic misery hits the children and women the hardest, producing broken marriages and homes. Children from such homes are subject to trafficking, abuse and neglect. Women are the worst off. They are subjected to early marriages, wife beating, rape in the home, female genital mutilation and inhuman widowhood. To remedy the situation, Ebigbo points out to the pressing need for collaboration among African nations, the crucial role of education and the need for governmental and non-governmental organizations to unite for effective synergized action.A través del ejemplo de Nigeria, Ebigbo muestra, en toda su magnitud, el problema del abuso infantil y el descuido en África. La sociedad nigeriana tradicional, granjera y comerciante, que fue impactada por la miseria económica y política, por conflictos culturales, desempleo, analfabetización y el hacinamiento urbano, está dando origen a niños explotados, sin educación, abusados y mal alimentados. La miseria económica golpea a niños y mujeres de la peor forma, lo que ha derivado en matrimonios y hogares rotos. Los pequeños de esos hogares están expuestos a ser traficados, abusados y descuidados. Las grandes perdedoras son las mujeres. Sus matrimonios son preacordados, son golpeadas por su esposo, violadas al interior del hogar, sometidas a mutilación genital y a una viudez inhumana. Para remediar esta situación, Ebigbo plantea ejercer presión para que exista colaboración entre las naciones africanas, para que la educación tenga un papel decisivo y las organizaciones gubernamentales y no gubernamentales se unan en pos de una acción efectiva sinérgica.Suivant l’exemple du Nigeria, Ebigbo accumule une ample variation sur la question de l’abus et le manque d’attention à l’enfant en Afrique. La société nigérienne traditionnelle, rurale et commerçante, a été frappée par la misère économique et politique, le conflit culturel, le chômage, l’analphabétisme et l’agglomération urbaine ce qui a conduit à l’apparition d’enfants exploités, sans éducation, abusés, et mal nourris. Les plus frappés par le dénuement économique sont les femmes et leurs enfants, dérivant en mariages et foyers brisés. Les enfants de ces foyers sont exposés au trafic, à l’abus et négligence. Les femmes sont les plus touchées. Les mariages sont arrangés, les épouses sont frappées, violées par leurs époux, soumises à l’excision et à un veuvage inhumain. Pour remédier à la situation, Ebigbo fait ressortir le besoin de faire pression pour qu’il existe une coopération entre les nations africaines et un rôle décisif que doit tenir l’Education et une unification des organisations gouvernementales et non gouvernementales vers une action concrète et collective. |
