    A Critical Examination of the Enforcement of ICJ Decisions through the Organs of the United Nations
    (American Research Institute for Policy Development, 2018-06) Amuda-Kannike Abiodun SAN; Abila Sylvanus
    The basis of the establishment of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) is that its decisions should be enforceable and binding on most Nations of the World, but it has been seen that in reality, the decisions of the ICJ over the years have become extremely difficult to enforce leading to the efforts in making sure the said decisions are enforced through several methods other than cohesive or military interference. As a result, it becomes necessary to involve the organs of the United Nations in the enforcement of the ICJ decisions in order not to make the ICJ a toothless bulldog. This contribution therefore examines the usefulness of the organs of the United Nations such as the Security Council, the General Assembly and Secretary-General office among others, in the enforcement of such decisions. It concludes by stating that the usefulness of the organs in the United Nations is not adequately in the enforcement of the decisions of the International Court of Justice.
