First Published in 1971. This study is a comparative investigation of contractual obligations in Ghana and Nigeria. It has often been suggested that the law of civil responsibility in West Africa is the same as the current English law position on the subject. This book sets out to examine the basis of this assumption, an exercise which has never been attempted by any previous writer in West African law. The study has been divided into five major parts. > Part 1; Chapter 1 Introduction; Chapter 2 Precedent and the Authority of English Decisions; Chapter 3 Judicial Precedent in Ghana and Nigeria; Part 2 Valid Agreements Two-Party Situations:; Chapter 4 The Nature of Agreement; Chapter 5 Offer and Acceptance; Chapter 6 Form and Consideration; Chapter 7 Intention to Create Legal Relations; Part 3 Valid Agreements: More Than Two Parties; Chapter 8 Privity; Chapter 9 Agreements between Two Parties Where One Is or Both are Represented By a Third, i.e. Agency; Chapter 10 Agreements between
