BL – May 2013 – L1 – SA – Q4 – Nigerian Legal System

This question tests the knowledge of the supreme statute binding all authorities in Nigeria.

The supreme statute that is binding on all authorities in the Federal Republic of Nigeria is:

A. The Interpretation Act
B. The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission Act
C. The Independent Corrupt Practices Act
D. The Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria
E. The National Assembly Service Commission Act

D. The Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria
Explanation:
The correct answer is D because the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria is the highest law in the country. It is the supreme statute, and all other laws derive their legitimacy from it. Other options like the EFCC Act or ICPC Act are important, but they are not the overarching legal framework for the entire country.
