The Lagos State Ministry of Youth and Social Development, in partnership with the Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency, has urged content creators, skit makers, influencers and digital media producers to safeguard children’s rights in both online and offline content.
The government said the growing influence of digital platforms has created opportunities for creativity, storytelling and economic empowerment, but has also raised concerns about how children are portrayed and involved in content that could harm their dignity, safety and overall well-being.
It stressed that children are a vulnerable group and must be protected from exposure to abuse, exploitation and inappropriate situations, whether intentional or unintended.
