"This book is well written, lucid and easy to read. It will be appealing to a very wide audience. The area and subject of the book is among those that suffer from dearth of quality works as yours, so it will be a welcome addition to fill a gaping gap. Hence, it will be creating a niche for itself. It has been long overdue to have a work like this on legal research in Nigeria. I recommend the book." - Professor Oyelowo E. Oyewo, Professor of Public Law, Former Dean, Faculty of Law, University of Lagos, Former President, Nigeria Association of Law Teachers.
