Oputa Panel
The Human Rights Violations Investigation Commission of Nigeria, also known as the Oputa Panel, is a commission that was developed following the collapse of the military dictatorship that controlled Nigeria until 1998.
It was created by Olusegun Obasanjo, the newly elected President of Nigeria, in 1999.
Its mandate was to investigate human rights during the period of military rule from 1984 to 1999.
In terms of reconciliation, the commission also worked towards unifying communities previously in conflict
The commission submitted its final report to President Obasanjo in 2002, but the government has not taken any action to date. Its report was not released to the public until 2005, when it was published by two activist groups, the Nigerian Democratic Movement and Nigeria-based Civil Society Forum
