Problems And Challenges For Lawyers In Africa written by Okechukwu Chinwuba Oko and has been published by Edwin Mellen Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2007 with Law categories.

This book provides an illuminating perspective on how lawyers operate in a society anxious to embrace democracy in this era of hope and optimism, yet still crippled by past attitudes, weak and ineffectual institutions, corruption, and the recrudescence of primordial ethnic sentiments, using Nigeria as a case study. The book compares and contrasts the central issues faced by lawyers all over the African continent, since the social pathologies that disfigure Nigeria are prevalent in most African nations. Despite these problems, the democratic impulse remains strong in the continent of Africa. Nearly all African countries put their faith in constitutional democracy despite its debasement by the political elites; increasingly they depend on law to help promote social equilibrium and secure constitutional democracy.

This book has brought into sharp focus the parts played and contributions made to the Legal Profession in Nigeria from Independence till today by Hairat Balogun. Hers has been a Life of service, driven by truth and a commitment to Justice. Service, Truth and Justice - three words - adherence to just one of them can define someone as a person of integrity and honour; and when all three are found in one person they set that person apart as an icon, a yardstick for her peers, and a model for the generation following after. As the first lady Attorney-General of the foremost Nigerian state i.e. Lagos State, during the military regime she exhibited, for the first time, obedience of the Executive arm of government to court orders in the celebrated case of Ojukwu vs Attorney General of Lagos State and others 1986 3 NWLR (part 26) 39 Court of Appeal. She thereby laid the foundation of the precedence of putting a stop to the disobedience of court orders by the Military Government dubbed as Executive Lawlessness. The contribution of the Author to the political history of this country was appreciated by her appointment as a member of "The Transition to Civil Rule Tribunal" in 1987 by the then Military Government. I commend this book to all cadres of people, lawyers, humanists, religious people of Christian and Muslim faith as they all will find a lesson or two to learn. I particularly recommend this book to our youths i.e. pupils of secondary schools, graduates of our universities (especially lawyers) and teacher training colleges who from this book will learn the importance of hard work, dedication, honesty and loyalty which are important virtues that are gradually being eroded from our society.

"My intention [is] to provide a frank criticism of the British colonial legacies to countries which I have come to love and admire and a sincere unsycophantic tribute to those who are now struggling with the problems flowing from these legacies." In this book, an expanded version of The Oliver Wendell Holmes Lectures he delivered at Harvard University in 1966, Mr. Gower first looks at some of the legacies of colonialism inherited by those nations of Tropical Africa which recently gained independence from Britain: Nigeria, Ghana, Sierra Leone, The Gambia, Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania. These various legacies include arbitrary national boundaries imposed long before independence; British-style education, government, civil service, military forces, and police; respect for the rule of law (and a residual contempt for it as a result of colonial associations); underdeveloped and unbalanced economies; hostility toward the West, including American "dollar-imperialism," and a hypersensitivity to criticism from that quarter. Mr. Gower continues with an assessment of what has happened to these legacies since independence and what seems likely to happen to them in the next few decades. His central concern is the challenge thus implied for the indigenous legal professions, but his study has far wider implications. In conclusion Mr. Gower describes how the legal professions were organized at the time of independence in the various countries and what progress has been made in producing the kinds of lawyers needed to solve the urgent problems these countries face. He suggests what the United States can and should-and occasionally what it should not-do to help.
