Chukwudiebube Bede Opata (University of Nigeria) analyzes Collective Dominance Based on Tacit Collusion in Nigerian Telecommunications Markets

This article argues that the Nigerian legal framework for regulation of collective dominance, which was modeled substantially on EU law, although an improvement on previous rules, requires refinement to provide clarity and regulatory certainty.
