NIGERIA LAW REPORTS
Law Reports are the authentic records of the full verbatim documentation of the decisions or judgments of courts of law in respect of matters brought before them for resolution, usually published in bound volumes for public use.
According to Professor Ezejiofor [Introduction to Nigerian Law (1980), p. 38], the history of systematic law reporting in Nigeria dates back to 1916 when the publication of the Nigerian Law Reports (NLR) under the official sponsorship of the Judicial Department was commenced. The West African Court of Appeal Law Reports (WACA) were published between 1933 and 1955. After 1955, the Federal Supreme Court Reports (FSC) as well as the Law Reports of Lagos (LLR) and the different Regions – Western Region of Nigeria Law Reports (WRNLR), Northern Region of Nigeria Law Reports (NRNLR), and Eastern Region of Nigeria Law Reports (ENLR or ERLR) were published.
Other Law Reports in Nigeria include the following: All Nigeria Law Reports (All NLR); Nigerian Monthly Law Reports (NMLR); Federation of Nigeria Law Reports (FNLR); University of Ife Law Reports (UILR); and The Nigerian Commercial Law Reports (NCLR) edited by Allan Milner.
Chief Gani Fawehinmi revolutionised law reporting in Nigeria by publishing several
invaluable Law Reports including the Supreme Court of Nigeria Law Reports (SCNLR);
Commercial Law Reports (CLR); Nigerian Constitutional Law Reports (NCLR); and of
course, the epoch-
Nigeria has recorded appreciable success in law reporting in recent times, compared with what obtained in the past. However, there is still a plethora of decisions that are denied their inherent right to publication, especially major decisions of our numerous High Courts, most of which never went, and will not go, on appeal to the Court of Appeal. Something has to be done about this with utmost urgency.
