The lobbying strategy of how to increase the age of consent in Nigeria Introduction Lobbying is the attempt to influence the lawmakers or the government by individuals or interest groups so that it makes decisions in favor of them (Okechukwu & Agbodike, 2016). The lobbying strategy is mainly used to persuade the government directly or through legislators. Currently, in the federal republic of Nigeria, many people are lobbying for the consent age to be increased from 11 to 16 years. This action was sparked by contradicting laws in the Nigerian constitution on Children Act (Abdulmalik et al; 2019). Goals of the lobbying strategy The principal aim of the lobbying to increase the age of consent is to seek constitutional clarification on the laws regarding marriage and consent age in Nigeria. The marriage law stipulates that one should not engage in contractual marriage before the age of 18 years. On the other hand, a child under the age of 11 years is prohibited from participating in any sexual activity. Commitment to the above crimes would earn one a life sentence. On…

Wells’ Invisible Man Wells’ Invisible Man rewrites and answers the tale of Gyges of Plato’s Republic. Griffin possesses the same power of invisibility that Gyges has and the same desire to commit a crime and getting away with the crime. The Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison is a story in which the storyteller presents himself as an “invisible man.” He states that his invisibility is not related to any supernatural cause or any biochemical accident. However, his invisibility is contributed to the fact that other individuals are unwilling to acknowledge his presence because of his colour. The speaker’s invisibility has served as a frequent augmentation and as an advantage. Sometimes, the narrator doubts his existence because of being invisible[1]. The narrator describes his pain and needs to make other individuals spot him, and he declares that he found that such efforts do not succeed. He recounts an incident in which he bumped into a blonde man in the dark. The tall, blond male insulted him, and the narrator attacked him, demanding an apology. “He hurled the blond man to the…

Reflection Discussion One of the many takeaways from this course is about the relationship between nursing and politics. Nurses need to be involved in politics since they will contribute to strategies that influence policies in healthcare. Nurses are advocates for their clients, communities, and the country as a whole. They may be frustrated by unhealthy policies or regulations, both at the federal and state level. Therefore, nursing professionals should be directly involved in politics since they are direct caregivers who spend most of their time with patients and the community. The most surprising thing in this course was the issue of politics in healthcare. Initially, I never thought that politics play such a significant role, especially among nursing professionals. When I realized that nurses form the largest group of healthcare professionals, I discovered that they are the ones who contribute to the ideas we have seen in Congress and Senate that aim at healthcare. As a result, nurses need to be actively involved in politics because they have first-hand information about their clients and healthcare in general. By taking this…
