List Of Nigerian Laws That Are Strange by Alamin28(m): 1:07am On Jan 26, 2016
Hello folks, we all can testify to different laws in Nigeria that come with different interpretations we not either satisfied with or sure about. Well here are some strange laws found in law books that would set your mind thinking. Can they be still applicable in Nigeria today ? here we go


1. An interesting and strange situation under Nigeria law is the fact that an individual can sue his or former partner for breach of promise to marry. Ezeanah vs Atta (2004). can we already relate to this


2. Its illegal to paint a private car in the colour commonly known as 'Army Green'... (Prohibition of Use) Act. don't panic already lol


3. A wife of a Christian marriage is not criminally responsible for an act she's actually compelled by her husband to do in his presence under Nigeria law, except it's an offence punishable with death or one in which grievous harm to the person of another, or intention to cause such harm, is an element. Criminal Code Act..... thats hot


4. Under Nigeria law, advertising a reward for the return of a stolen or lost property and stating no questions will be asked, or that the person producing such property will not be seized or molested is illegal. Criminal Code Act... You heard all


5. Under Nigeria law, A person is not deemed to have killed another, if the death of that person does not take place within a year and a day of cause of death. Criminal Code Act..... Damn!!
