This book is an admirable study of the Supreme Court under the leadership of the Honourable Justice Mohammadu Lawal Uwais, GCON, Chief Justice of Nigeria (1995 – 2006). This work is unique in several ways: First, it is the ï¬rst academic study by the Nigerian Institute of Advanced Legal Studies, of the works of the Supreme Court. Secondly, it is also the ï¬rst study of the period of any Chief Justice of Nigeria. This is the ï¬rst time that one could effectively refer to a period in the life of the Court by reference to the Chief Justice of the period. We are then presented, in this book, a study of the Uwais Court 1995 – 2006. Be that not all. Thirdly, the Chief Justice under reference happens to be a Fellow of the distinguished Institution known as the Nigerian Institute of Advanced Legal Studies.
