From 1962 to 1994, the Nigerian Law School had only one campus, located in Lagos; today, the main campus is in Abuja; the other campuses are the old one in Lagos and two new ones in Enugu and Kano [the website gives the name variously as "Nigerian Law School" and "Nigeria Law School"] ) August 4, 2017 (The Nigerian Law School formally began operations in Igbosere road, Lagos.
