Law in Nigeria

Thinking of expanding or investing in Kano State?

Kano offers some of Nigeria’s strongest incentives for private-sector growth — from PPP opportunities under the ICRC framework to pioneer status benefits, tax credits, export grants, R&D deductions, and state-level concessions such as land access and fast-tracked permits.

These incentives cut across key sectors including agriculture, mining, manufacturing, and technology, making Kano a strategic destination for investors looking to build long-term, compliant and well-structured operations.

Phishing emails are becoming increasingly sophisticated, designed to look legitimate even to trained professionals. One careless click can expose passwords, confidential client data, or compromise your company’s entire system.

Cybercriminals rely on trust and distraction. Always take a moment to verify the sender’s address, hover over links before clicking, and never open unexpected attachments. 

When in doubt, confirm through another channel before responding.

Stay alert. Stay cyber conscious.

A viral wedding held on a moving train has raised an important legal question:

Can such a ceremony be recognised under Nigerian law?

The Marriage Act (Cap M6 LFN 2004) provides clear guidance on where a statutory marriage can legally take place and how creativity can coexist with compliance.

Read the full legal insight to understand what makes a marriage venue valid under the law.

We have huge concerns about the way loan apps are being promoted in Nigeria.

The flashy promises like “borrow one million, pay back just a little extra” sound attractive, but behind them are hidden interests, illegal data access, and harassment of borrowers.

As legal practitioners, we have seen people humiliated, their contacts messaged, their reputations damaged, all because of a loan. That is not recovery; that is abuse.

If you ever need funds, pause first. Try family, friends, or regulated financial institutions. 

The Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) has made it clear that loan apps are not allowed to access your contacts, send shaming messages, or misrepresent repayment terms.

Many of these apps are not approved and operate outside the law.

Financial help should never cost you your peace or your dignity.

Have you or do you know someone that has experienced this?

Is your online life protected?

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is the essential second layer of defence your email, banking, and social media need. Stop relying on a single password—enable MFA now.

Protecting digital access is as vital as protecting legal rights.

Secure your data. Stay compliant. Stay aware.
