INTRODUCTION TO ECOWAS COMMUNITY LAW AND PRACTICE
This book is intended primarily as an introductory textbook for
students in law faculties and other relevant disciplines in the ECOWAS Members
States’ Universities. It is hoped also that judicial officers, legal practitioners,
researchers, government legal advisers, policymakers and interested readers
will find it useful.
A conscious effort has been made in every chapter to be reasonably
brief so as to produce overall a concise work suitable for the needs of the
above target group. Full texts of relevant laws have also been reproduced.
