Affidavit Evidence and Electronically Generated Materials in Nigerian Courts

Abstract

In this article the author seeks to discuss affidavit evidence, which is the branch of evidence most prevalent in Nigerian Courts and in other adjudicatory processes such as Commercial Arbitration in the country. It is hoped that the discussion will be of use not only to researchers and other persons with a general interest in Nigerian law on the subject but also to foreign practitioners who are currently litigating or who may soon litigate any claim in Nigeria.
