‘Nigeria Yet To Ratify 400 Treaties Protocols’

The member of the House of Representatives, Hon Ossai Ossai, yesterday, disclosed that over 400 treaties, protocols and agreements signed by successive governments in Nigeria with other nations of the world were yet to be ratified or domesticated.
The lawmaker, who is chairman of the House Committee on Treaties, Protocols and Agreements, also stated that the National Assembly is usually left out in the processes leading to the signing of some of these agreements.
He made the disclosure at the commissioning of the National Depository of Treaties domiciled at the Headquarters of the Federal Ministry of Justice in Abuja.
The lawmaker described the project as a milestone and pledged the support of his committee and the National Assembly towards making the project a huge success.
According to him the House Committee on Treaties had at the inception of its work, identified four critical areas of development among which is the establishment of a functional National Depository of Treaties.
He said, “As a committee, it is encouraging that the Honourable Attorney-General has shown commitment towards the attainment of some of these goals through the formal commissioning of the National Depository of Treaties.
“This is very important because our engagements in the last few months have shown that over 400 Treaties, Protocols and Agreements entered into by successive Government of Nigeria are yet to be ratified and/or domesticated.
