EXPLAINER: How Are Laws Gazetted in Nigeria?
In Nigeria, the process of gazetting laws formalizes them and makes them enforceable. After a bill is passed by the National Assembly and receives presidential assent, it is sent to the Federal Government Printer. The law is then published in the Official Gazette, an official government publication. Gazetting ensures public awareness, provides legal proof, and signals that the law is now active and binding. Without gazetting, even signed laws may not be fully enforceable, highlighting its critical role in the legislative process.
