Nigeria: Infrastructure development in emerging markets increasingly depends on complex financing arrangements combining sovereign support, export credit agency guarantees, and commercial lending. Within these structures, procurement is no longer a purely administrative exercise; rather, it is a foundational legal element that directly affects the enforceability and bankability of the underlying transaction.

Under this approach, ratification of an international agreement does not automatically render its provisions directly applicable within the national legal system.

While this framework preserves parliamentary sovereignty, it has at times created tension in areas where international cooperation is critical, particularly in intellectual property protection.
