DAILY LAW TIPS

(Tip 157)
“Who Pays For Properties Damaged or Lost In A Riot In Nigeria”.
Most times, where there is a riot, properties are damaged, stolen and lost. It is not the duty of owners of such properties to suffer and pay for the effect of a riot. Rather Government pays compensation to owners of such properties. The compensation is subject to the consent of the Minister of Finance.
My authority is the Riot (Damages) Act, 1963.
Share this till it gets to those that need it most. Save a Nigerian today!
