Notwithstanding the massive financial power of large multinational firms, lawsuits offer a means of seeking justice, righting wrongs, and defending human rights standards. Numerous mining operations take place in countries with weak regulatory frameworks or where the government may be complicit in human rights abuses such as forced displacement, child labour, and environmental damage. In some cases, litigation may be heard under the jurisdiction of the parent company's native country's courts while it may be difficult to institute legal action against companies that committed such wrongful acts. This could compel the multinational corporation to take responsibility for its foreign operations. Therefore, this article discusses litigation against MNCs as an important tool for corporate accountability in the mining industry and instances MNCs have been accused of violating human rights in the US, UK, and Nigeria. The analysis takes into account the achievements as well as its shortcomings in addressing the violations. This research also examined several barriers to lawsuits against corporations. They have the power to keep victims from getting justice for alleged wrongdoing and human rights abuses by businesses. It states strategies to strengthening and enhancing the effectiveness of litigation against MNCs and businesses.Item Multinational Corporations in Nigeria and their Implications on the Right to Water(Faculty of Law University of Maiduguri, 2015) Igbayiloye, Oluwatosin Busayo; Niyi-Gafar, Oluwabunmi LucyItem Nigerian Water Resources Act and its effect on domestic water supply and more particularly domestic water(Faculty of Law, Al-hikmah University, 2024) Niyi-Gafar, Oluwabunmi Lucy; Igbayiloye, Oluwatosin BusayoItem The Right of Access to Potable Water in Nigeria(Department of Jurisprudence and Private Law, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, 2015) Niyi-Gafar, Oluwabunmi LucyItem Water Security a Necessity for Food Availability(National Water Resources Institute, 2012) Niyi-Gafar, Oluwabunmi Lucy
