Growth and development of the rule of law invariably affect the growth and development of the citizenry and the society at large. In order to ensure that the prejudicial tendencies of the similar facts do not outweigh their probative value the Common Law outrightly prohibited the use of similar facts for the sole purpose of proving the guilt of the accused in criminal matters. Hence it would be illogical to assert that the mere fact that an accused committed an offence earlier is enough to infer that he also committed the one for which he is standing trial. This study examines the similar facts evidence in Nigeria. The study noted that telecommunication industries could be sued in damages over poor services, and similar facts as to the knowledge of the companies as to their poor services used to get judgment against them and wake them up from their slumber. And the same tool can be used in visiting different facets of the commonwealth in enhancement of an egalitarian and enjoyable society.
