Abstract:Aim is to clear some of the fog which has persistently beclouded the basic policy of statutory provisions in the various Nigerian States which are designed to resolve internal conflicts of laws. The problem is approached under the following headings: Subjection to customary law (Area in which customary law is silent or expressly abolished; Areas in which customary law is vaque, rudimentary or inadequate; Areas in which customary law is comparatively developed and still dominant) - Extent of operation of the statutory choice-of-law rules - Purpose of the statutory choice of law rules. Notes.
