I have the privilege and honour, on behalf of OHADA Nigeria, to announce that the 2009 OHADA International Conference and Book Presentation which will D.V. take place on Wednesday, 3rd June, 2009 at the Metropolitan Club, Victoria, Island, Lagos. OHADA is an Organisation for the Harmonisation of Business Laws in Africa, and exists all over the world for the promotion of harmonization of business laws in Africa. OHADA Treaty and Laws provide a secured legal environment for investments through the provisions of Uniform Acts in all members States. Although Nigeria is yet to join the OHADA Treaty States, Nigerian professionals, businessmen and companies play an active role in investments in these countries. This year's conference is aimed at creating awareness and bringing the knowledge of OHADA Laws to the doorsteps of all stakeholders including businessmen and lawyers whose businesses cut across borders in Africa, the Government whose policies determine the creation of a conducive investment climate in Nigeria and the ECOWAS region, the Legislature that makes laws in this regard and the Judiciary that will interpret the laws. The Highlights of the Conference include the presentation of a book written by Honorable Justice Idris Mohammed of the Federal High Court, Benin - "Harmonisation of Business Law in Africa: The Law Issues, Problems and Prospects", as well as of a new book, "Unified Business Laws for Africa, a Common Law Perspective on OHADA", to which both the Honorable Justice Idris and the late Prof. John Ademola Yakubu of Ibadan University have contributed chapters.
