There is a need to explore if there are improvements when it comes to attending to different issues that children face in the Nigerian space which always impede their rights. In this discourse, the extent to which legislation has been able to manage child abuse, trafficking, and labour will be investigated. The study also investigates the prevalence of child abuse, trafficking, and labour in Nigeria in the 21st century; and determines the capabilities of local and international policies in promoting the fundamental human rights of children in Nigeria. This study adopts the secondary method of data collection which is concerned with assessing data through secondary sources. The interpretive research philosophy is engaged which gives room for the systematic analysis of robust findings. It has been found that there is still a prevailing rate in the number of children that are faced with trafficking forced labour and abuse in Nigeria, regardless of the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). It has been recommended that awareness promotion through the use of television and face-to-face means about the subject should be promoted.
