"It is... essential for every Magistrate to take a critical look at any case before him and decide whether it is one that could be resolved more effectively... by a dispute resolution mechanism other than litigation." #CostEffective #CollaborativeLaw #PeacefulResolution

Monthly #ADR Case Review is here! ⚖️ We’re breaking down: Pan Ocean Oil Corp v. KCA Deutag Drilling GMBH & Anor (2025) A key SC decision on arbitration in Nigeria. With: @JonathanOkuba Esq. | @Big_Obamz Esq. | @LionOfJustice23 Esq. Moderated by: Adeola Fajilade Esq.

ADR shifts our minds from the adversarial, litigious mindset to the issue-based, problem solving collaborative mindset.

The Federal High Court recently issued the Federal High Court (Nigerian Electricity Supply Industry) Practice Directions 2026, reinforcing the increasingly specialised framework governing dispute resolution within Nigeria’s electricity sector. Against the backdrop of the Electricity Act 2023 and the evolving regulatory structure of the Nigerian Electricity Supply Industry, disputes in the sector can no longer be approached through conventional litigation strategies alone. In this article, TEMPLARS Partners, Sadiq Ilegieuno, FCIArb, FICMC and Desmond Ogba, and Associate, Francis Jarigo, examine the sector’s multi-layered dispute resolution framework, including regulatory processes administered by the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission, contractual dispute resolution mechanisms, and judicial intervention. The publication explores the growing importance of procedural sequencing, regulatory oversight, and carefully drafted dispute resolution clauses in navigating disputes across the electricity value chain, while highlighting the commercial risks associated with procedural and jurisdictional missteps. The analysis provides practical guidance for licensees, investors, financiers, consumers, and other stakeholders managing regulatory and contractual disputes within Nigeria’s evolving electricity market.
