The Development Transparency Platform
This project is to train selected members of the communities who enjoy the confidence of their communities and build their capacity in the law. They are able to offer legal advice and provide simple legal services such as drafting of affidavits, tenancy agreements and leases. They are available to provide bail services to the community and act as a check to police illegality. Apart from these tasks, paralegals are capable of working in law firms to assist lawyers. CIRDDOC legal aid clinics are located in 15 communities - Ajalli, Awka, Nri, Nteje and Nnewi in Anambra State, Akpofu, Ugwogo, Ehalumona, Owelli, Enugu in Enugu state; Afikpo, Ezza, Amaezu, Abakaliki and Ikwo in Ebonyi State.
