Such components include, Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) analysis, Fingerprint analysis, Polygraph test, Ballistics, Forensic anthropology, Forensic pathology and Computer forensics. The justification for this research arose out of the alarming rate crimes are constantly committed and the apparent difficulty faced by agencies of the criminal justice system while trying to curb the occurrence of such crimes. The sources of information relied upon here are relevant books, articles in journal publications, internet materials, statutes and judicial authorities. In the course of this research, it was found that establishing certain types of evidence such as fingerprint impressions and DNA, against accused persons was seriously hindered due to the absence of forensic labs and this hinder the conviction of such persons. In view of this, this research recommended inter alia, for proper training of law enforcement agencies in terms of how crimes and crime scenes are handled and also the establishment of sophisticated forensic labs where evidence and accused persons can be taken to in order to determine guilt or innocence in order to ease the establishment of evidence before law enforcement agencies in Nigeria.

It sets out the terms under which goods are to be delivered and received a ship for carriage. The mode of shipment varies and is dependent on the terms agreed in the Bill of Lading. It can either be from port to port or combined transport. What then happens when the Bill of Lading is unclear on the mode of shipment and a dispute arises from such ambiguity? This has been answered by the Supreme Court of Nigeria.
