The historic relationship between Nigeria as a former British colony and Britain has significant influence on the development and problems of air law in Nigeria. The wobbling state of air law in the country after about 72 years of civil aviation's existence, and about 47 years since the evolution of a regulatory environment, bears glaring testimony to this fact. Essentially, some of the air law problems in the country are not entirely dissimilar to problems which have for over 50 years confronted the legal system of international civil aviation. / This Dissertation attempts to provide an account of the nature of each air law instrument, and the source from which they derive, taking into consideration international air law requirements, the manner of their application, and a critical appraisal of their suitability to local circumstances, responsiveness to national and global changes and challenges in the economies and technologies of civil aviation.
