Abstract
This article undertakes a detailed examination of the attitude of Nigerian courts to illegally obtained evidence. The current Nigerian position of the law is discussed, and the only exception to the current Nigerian position is identified and evaluated. The article also embarks on a selective review of comparative approaches to the admissibility of illegally obtained evidence in England, South Africa, the United States and Canada. The need for a complete overhaul of the current judicial attitude to illegally obtained evidence in Nigeria is identified and recommendations are made in that regard.
