Profile
The Nigeria Branch currently has over 800 members, working in a range of business sectors including law, accountancy, architecture, engineering, property development and insurance. The Nigeria Branch of CIArb was established in 1998 and covers the whole of Nigeria.
It aims to encourage and promote arbitration and ADR in Nigeria, to train professionals and aid in a better understanding of issues involved in arbitration and to provide a gateway to a worldwide network of ADR professionals.
