The traditional system of administration of justice poses a problem for foreigners, especially European foreigners who do not know traditional law in many parts of African society. This led to the establishment of a consular tribunal by the British government with a consul appointed to deal with disputes between indigenous peoples and foreign traders, while traditional courts continued to administer cases involving only indigenous peoples. An example is the protectorate of oil flows with the port protectorate of Niger, for which consuls were appointed by the British government to honor treaties and regulate the government of the British subject in this area. In the region that was to be known as the Southern Nigeria Protectorate, in the mid-19th century, the Southern Nigeria Protectorate was restored. The courts of justice were created in the nineteenth century, with the main function of managing trade relations between British and non-British subjects. They differed from the court of consuls in that they were less technical and concerned more with the management of commercial relations than with governmental and judicial matters. Obilade notes in the manual “The Nigerian Legal System” that the lack of internal supervision and control in the Southern Protectorate weakened the national judicial system, while the leaders of the Northern Protectorate, who participated in the appointment of members of the national courts, increased the efficiency of the system. See Uzodinma v. COP (1982) 1 NCR 27, until recently, legal practitioners were not entitled to an R of representation and hearing before a customary or district court. Furniture.

Under the Abubakar Government, military courts continued to operate outside the constitutional court system, but they were used less and less as military rule declined; The courts were formally dissolved by the implementation of the new constitution and the return to civilian rule.

Its performance must be high, not low, and in some cases must have been noticed. In Uzo v. Polizei (1972) 11 SCE 37 or (1972) ANLR 825. It was noted that in the Nigerian criminal trial system, the judge is not expected to enter the arena as an arbitrator, as the trial is the acquisition that the innocence of the accused is presumed until he is found guilty by the prosecution. The procedure chosen by the trial judge is inappropriate. In this regard, he personally took over the charge and subjected the accused to a lengthy and disturbing cross-examination in order to discredit him on an irrelevant issue of falsification and theft of clothing. It cannot be presumed that his conviction on the single charge before the court was not influenced by the court`s unnecessary concern with this irrelevant issue. See the case of R.V.
