evidence: Following a lengthy period of intense disagreement and occasional clashes over ownership of Bakassi, a peninsula on the Gulf of Guinea lying between the Cross River estuary in the west, and the Rio del Ray estuary on the east, in 2002, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruled in Cameroon’s favour over the disputed territory. [...] However, despite the formal handover of Bakassi to Cameroon in 2006, the territory of Bakassi is still reflected as part of the 774 local governments in Nigeria as contained in the First Schedule, Part I of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. [...] On June 18, 2008, few weeks to the August deadline for the handing over of the remaining areas of Bakassi Peninsula to Cameroon by Nigeria, the Bakassi Resettlement Committee established during the Imoke-led administration made its findings, and rejected the resettlement of the people in Ikang.
