- W3192568470 abstract "There is a position that trial at the Court Martial is not covered under section 36 (9) of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (as amended) in this work referred to as1999 CFRN as amended. This position is to the effect that a defendant charged, tried, and convicted at the Court Martial can again be arraigned before a Civil Court (regular court) for the same offence having the same ingredients with the offence for which he had been convicted. The proponents of the above view believe that what the trial Civil Court will only consider is the punishment the Court Martial had already imposed on him in determining the new sentence to be imposed on the convict assuming he is convicted. The article examines this position vis-a-vis the relevant provisions of the 1999 CFRN, the Armed Forces Act and case laws. It is found that the above position is a misconception largely due to the absence of clear and lucid wordings or definition of certain words or expressions in Armed Forces Act in this regard. A Court Martial is a court recognized under the 1999 CFRN, and accordingly trial before a Court Martial is a trial by a superior court which outcome can only be appealed at the Court of Appeal. It does not matter whether the military offence for which the defendant was arraigned for at the Court Martial also constitutes a civil offence under our Criminal/Penal laws. The article recommends that the Armed Forces Act should be amended to make clear provisions in this regard in line with the 1999 CFRN. In writing this article doctrinal research method was used to collate materials." @default.
