For the purpose of this paper, the write only discuss the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, the Convention on the Rights of the Child and, the African Charter on the Rights and Welfare of the Child. These instruments oblige State Parties to adopt appropriate legislative, administrative and other measures for the implementation of the rights of children with disability.

This paper focuses on the appropriate legislative, administrative and other measure that has to be taken by African State Parties for the full realization of the rights of children with disability.
