Summary: Text of my presentation at the inaugural conference of the AFSIA in London on 03/12/08. My presentation examined the legal regime for enforcement and setting aside arbitral awards under the laws of OHADA, Nigeria and Sudan. I concluded that implementation of the New York Convention is still the best regime a party wishing to enforce a foreign arbitral award can hope for and should actively seek at the time of conclusion of the arbitration agreement.
