Faculty of Law

The program of this faculty provides top rated university education in the field of law. It provides training in all areas of Law.

Law students are availed with world-class facilities and lecturers with several years of experience both in academia and legal practice in Nigeria. The faculty produces sound graduates worthy of knowledge and character and, thereby, fit and proper for the legal profession. In the faculty, the practical aspect of the legal training is considered as important as the theoretical aspect. Hence, the law clinic and moot court. The Law Clinic provides hands-on legal experience to law students whilst providing probono legal services to persons who cannot afford legal representation. The moot court provides students with an avenue for healthy competition amongst their peers, which involve reality-stimulated cases to advance their training in advocacy.

The faculty of law wishes to welcome both fresh and continuing students back to school. The faculty is a theatre for academic mentoring where brilliance remains a core value.
