Resumo do Caso
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.

  • Direito à Informação
  • Direito à Propriedade
Resumo do Caso
The Incorporated Trustees of Okpamakhin Community Initiative and seven others, acting on behalf of farming communities in Edo State, Nigeria, alleged that the Government unlawfully reallocated parts of the Owan Forest Zone to private investors for plantation projects, threatening their customary land rights, livelihoods, cultural heritage, and environmental interests. They further claimed that the Government failed to disclose information concerning the identity of investors and agreements relating to the forest allocation, thereby violating their right to receive information. The ECOWAS Court held that while the Applicants demonstrated a recognizable customary interest in the forest land, they failed to establish actual or imminent interference with their property rights or prove that the Government unlawfully denied access to information. Consequently, the Court found no violation of Articles 14 and 9 of the African Charter, dismissed all reliefs sought, and ordered each party to bear its own costs.

The ECOWAS Court held that although the Applicants proved ownership of their copyrighted software through a valid copyright certificate, the Respondent’s alleged copying and use of the software did not amount to a violation of the right to property under Article 14 of the African Charter, since the Applicants were not deprived of their proprietary interest. The Court found that allegations of theft fall within the realm of criminal law and lie outside the Court’s jurisdiction. The claim under Article 26 of the ICCPR for equality before the law was dismissed for lack of factual basis. Claims under the Berne Convention, WIPO treaties, and the Nigerian Constitution were found inadmissible. All human rights claims were ultimately dismissed.

The complaint is a response to a proposed amendment to A/P.1/7/79. The proposed amendment would incorporate the requirement of domestic remedies as a pre-requisite for admissibility to the ECOWAS Court. This particular judgment determines that not all of the states listed in the application can be parties, because the African Court does not have jurisdiction to hear complaints against them. The judgment, therefore, revises and renames the application.

Resumo do Caso
The Centre for Community Law, acting in the public interest, challenged Nigeria's systemic practice of prolonged pre-trial detention and overcrowded correctional facilities. Relying on official prison statistics, it argued that the large number of awaiting-trial inmates and poor detention conditions violated multiple human rights under the African Charter. The ECOWAS Court held that Nigeria had failed to rebut the Applicant's evidence and found that the prolonged detention of awaiting-trial inmates and overcrowded prison conditions constituted systemic human rights violations. The Court ordered Nigeria to establish mechanisms for periodic judicial review of prolonged detention cases, implement a comprehensive prison decongestion policy, adopt non-custodial measures for minor and bailable offences, and submit a compliance report within six months
