ABSTRACT
Treaties represent an important instrument by which States undertake and accept responsibilities
in the international arena. Nigeria has in furtherance of its international relations entered into a
number of multi-lateral and bilateral treaties. Nigeria has by its constitution expressly provided

enacted into law and assented by the President. It follows, therefore, that until a treaty has been
domesticated in Nigeria, it cannot be applied within the country.
