Hakeem O. Yusuf is a lecturer in Law at Queen's University, Belfast.
'In less than 200 pages, the author covers general questions of judicial accountability and the judicialisation of politics (Chapters 1 and 6); applies these questions to transitional contexts (Chapters 3 and 5); analyzes the specifics of judicial accountability in the Nigerian case (Chapters 4 and 7) and advances an analysis about the appropriateness of truth commissions for delivering judicial accountability (Chapter 2). In this respect, the book is a tour de force' - Catherine O'Rourke, University of Ulster, UK for Social & Legal Studies (2013)
