“It is for protection from exploitation and abuse because Children without birth certificates are at a higher risk of exploitation and abuse, as they are more vulnerable to child labor, child trafficking, and forced marriage,” he said.

“2021 Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey findings, Birth Registration is at 38.3% in Bauchi State. Moreover, in 2022 when a joint UNICEF/Government performance review took place in the Bauchi Field Office one, it was found that Bauchi State was one of the lowest performers in birth registration. The initiative targets to register the births of at least 1,080,984 children under 5 years of age in Bauchi State saying that to achieve this ambitious goal, “we would need the engagement, participation and full commitment of all stakeholders present today, in the State and in every LGA.”
