On 10 October 2002, the International Court of Justice at The Hague delivered judgement in the contentious case between Cameroon and Nigeria (Equatorial Guinea intervening) to the effect, inter alia, that ‘sovereignty over the Bakassi Peninsula lies with the Republic of Cameroon’. The Court further decided that ‘the Federal Republic of Nigeria is under an obligation expeditiously and without condition to withdraw its administration and its military and police forces from the territories which fall within the sovereignty of the Republic of Cameroon’.
