Case Head Notes: The request for Advisory opinion is submitted by the Socio Economic Rights and Accountability Project on the basis of clarifying whether the organization is recognized by the AU. SERAP argues it should be recognized by the African Union on the basis that is an African organization that is registered in Nigeria. SERAP also argues that due to its observer status with the African Commission it has the competence to request an opinion relating to any question within the scope of the ACFPR. But since SERAP doesn’t have a memorandum of understanding with the African union, it isn’t entitled to bring a request for advisory opinion before the court. The Court couldn’t give an opinion on the request due to not having personal jurisdiction.
