Answer Details
Before 1963, the highest court in Nigeria was the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council. The Privy Council was an appellate court based in London, England that had the final say on legal matters from the colonies. Nigerian cases could be appealed up to the Privy Council if they were unable to be resolved by the Nigerian courts. However, in 1963, Nigeria abolished appeals to the Privy Council and established the Supreme Court of Nigeria as the final court of appeal in the country.
