Governing Board, RUGIPOLY, Ondo State v. Ola [2016] 16 NWLR (Pt. 1537) 1 at 24, paras H-D:

“By section 243(2) and (3) of the Constitution, appeal shall lie from the decision of the National Industrial Court as of right to the Court of Appeal on questions of fundamental right as contained in Chapter IV of the Constitution on matters upon which the National Industrial Court has jurisdiction. An appeal shall only lie from the decision of the National Industrial Court to the Court of Appeal as may be laid down or allowed by an Act of the National Assembly. On the condition that an Act or Law lays down or allows that an appeal shall lie from the decision of the National Industrial Court to the Court of Appeal such appeal shall be with the leave of the Court of Appeal not even with leave of the National Industrial Court. For now there is no Act of the National Assembly allowing appeal from the decision of the National Industrial Court to the Court of Appeal on any other question…”

Blogger’s Note:

The above case appears to be the most recent on the subject and so remains the authority on the point.

See also the conflicting case of Local Government Service Commission, Ekiti State & Anor. v Bamisaye  (2013) LPELR-20407(CA).

Introducing Law Practice as a Business

Dear friends, I’m happy to announce the publication of my latest book, Law Practice as a Business

Law Practice as a Business discusses a critical aspect of law-practice business—the business of making money in legal practice. It shares some of the vital business strategies and distinct ideas peculiar to the legal industry. The ideas are presented with clarity of thought and simplicity of language. Hopefully, this keeps you relaxed while activating your logical and innovative mind. 

In addition to my knowledge and personal experience, the fundamental business aspects of legal practice discussed in this book also draws from the ideas of well-accomplished legal practitioners and scholars, locally and internationally. Therefore, some of the opinions expressed in the book are authoritative. The ideas are not only authoritative but realistic, with proven degrees of success. 

This book is meant to be a source of information, inspiration, and motivation for all categories of lawyers—especially young lawyers—as well as the lay in law, including law students and people in service-based businesses.
