The Arbitration and Conciliation Act in Nigeria serves as a critical legal framework for the resolution of disputes outside the traditional court system. Commencing with provisions recognizing the validity and enforceability of arbitration agreements, the Act establishes the legal framework for conducting arbitration proceedings. It outlines procedures for the appointment of arbitrators, the conduct of hearings, and the issuance of awards, ensuring a fair and efficient resolution process. Additionally, the Act provides mechanisms for enforcing arbitration agreements and awards, both domestically and internationally, promoting the finality and enforceability of arbitration outcomes. Moreover, the Act addresses conciliation procedures, offering parties an alternative avenue for resolving disputes through negotiation and mediation. By providing a robust framework for arbitration and conciliation, the Act enhances access to justice, promotes dispute resolution efficiency, and contributes to a conducive business environment in Nigeria.
