Artificial Intelligence Law and Governance in Nigeria

This forthcoming book examines the legal and institutional questions raised by AI-assisted decision-making in Nigeria. It connects constitutional rights, sectoral regulation and practical accountability across healthcare, financial services, legal practice and public administration.

Core contribution

The manuscript advances a Standard of Reasoned Justification: a framework for testing whether an AI-influenced decision can be explained, reviewed and defended against relevant legal and ethical duties.
