dc.description.abstractBasically, inheritance is the inalienable right of all members of the human family. It is linked to the enjoyment of all categories of rights because the wealth acquired by members of one generation usually assists the incoming generation to lay a solid foundation, build and improve upon it before handing over the baton to another set of people. Denial of inheritance rights impoverishes widows and make widows less economically secured. This paper examines widows' right of inheritance under the various laws, that is, customary, Islamic and general laws. The paper discusses different rights of widows and how those rights are exercised.
