Introduction to AUN Journal of Law, Volume 1, Issue 1
It is with great pleasure that I present the maiden edition of the AUN Journal of Law (AUNJOL), the first legal journal from the School of Law and a historic milestone in the 20-year journey of the American University of Nigeria.
This inaugural issue features a rich blend of scholarly articles that explore both established and emerging areas of law. Our goal is to provide a platform that deepens legal understanding, encourages critical engagement, and contributes meaningfully to the advancement of legal education, research, and practice.
I am deeply grateful to all our contributors, reviewers, and the editorial team for their dedication, insight, and scholarly excellence. Your collective efforts have shaped this journal into a promising space for rigorous academic discourse.
We hope this first edition will serve as a trailblazer for future issues and inspire continued contributions from the broader legal and academic community. Thank you for joining us on this important journey.
