    Competing Competences in Adjudication: Reviewing the Relationship between the ECOWAS Court and National Courts
    in African Journal of Legal Studies , Volume 7, Issue 1 ,  2014 ,  87-122
    This article argues that regional access to justice in West Africa provides an alternative to national access to justice through the institution of the ecowas Community Court of Justice. This gives West Africans the option of pursuing justice in national judicial institutions or in the ecowas Court. Therefore, it reveals a situation where both systems compete for effectiveness in meeting the justice demands of citizens while also encouraging greater complementarity in their institutional activities.
