The rights to procedure permitted by law granted to accused persons are not primarily their own privilege. On the contrary procedure permitted by law is a pledge to the entire Nigerian Society that our police, our prosecuting officials and our courts will do that which is right and just in obedience to the rules of law which have been evolved out of years of experience.

Then arose the question "WHAT ARE THE RIGHTS AVAILED AN ACCUSED IN NIGERIA?".
