    Induced Abortions and the Law in Nigeria
    (Faculty of Law, Rivers State University of Science and Technology, Port Harcourt, Nigeria, 2012-04-12) ADEBIMPE, RAZAQ JUSTICE
    Abortion is debatably the most contentious issues in forensic medicine. But while much has been written on the subject matter in Nigeria, particularly on the need for relaxation of the law in that respect, a remarkably little attention has been given to the scope of the law relating thereto. This paper aimed at filling that gap, by examining, in material details and making clear distinctions between that offence and some other related crimes. In the final analysis, far reaching recommendations are made, for instance, the paper recommends inter alia that there should be provisions for improved access to contraception information and services, and sexuality education so as to, at least, reduce the necessity for the procedure in the first place.

    The Legal Challenges of Enforcing Shariah Compliant Dress Code in Nigeria Islamic Universities
    (The International Institute of Islamic Thought (IIIT) Nigeria, 2013-04-12) ADEBIMPE, RAZAQ JUSTICE
    Islamic Universities are known to be established to attain certain objectives; prominent among these is the moral edification of the young generations, with particular interest on the enforcement of dress codes within and outside the campus system. In a bid to achieving this all-important endeavour, policies are clearly formulated to ensure compliance not only on the Part of students, but also the staff. As lofty as this mission is however, it has been observed and rightly too, that certain “legal rights” of some of the subjects of the rules are in the process violated. For the goal to be achieved therefore, and in order to ensure sustainability of these citadels of learning without compromising Islamic principles on which they are built, this paper examines the legal implication associated with the enforcement regime of dress code and how these challenges can be circumvented.
