ABORTION AND ITS LEGAL CONSEQUENCES UNDER THE NIGERIAN CRIMINAL LAW

Abortion is a debate that has been going on in many countries around the world including Nigeria. It is the most poorly understood, easily misunderstood, easily mixed up and abused subject matter, yet it is one of the topics in applied ethics that creates a great deal of public debate. In this well researched LL.B project, under the Supervision of Mrs. M.C. Chinwueze, the author interrogates what is obtained in Nigeria while examining the various intricacies that underpin the criminalization or otherwise of the subject matter in all other various jurisdictions across the globe.
