dc.description.abstractThis t h e s i s covers an a n a l y t i c a l study of offences against property in Nigeria under the Penal Code which a p p l i e s to the eleven Northern States and the Criminal Code applicable to the ten Southern S t a t e s . More a t t e n t i on Is , however, focused on the law applicable to t h e Northern S t a t e s * Reference has been made to p r e - s t a t u t e period when t h e only applicable laws were t h e Customary laws of crime which varied from one community to another except the Muslim community in the North which were governed by the Islami law of crime long before t h e advent of the B r i t i s h . When the B r i t i s h came, they established some B r i t i s h Courts and g r a d u a l l y s u b s t i t u t e d the Customary laws of crime (including Islamic law of crime) with the Common law. The B r i t i s h c o l o n i a l i s t s l a t e r introduced a Criminal Code which i n i t i a l l y applied only to the then Northern Region and was l a t e r extended to the Southern Region as w e l l . On the eve of independence the Penal Code was drafted and applied, from the date of independence, to the Northern Region while the Southern Region has continued to apply Criminal Code.en_US
