“Sovereign Immunity” is perhaps the oldest notion of international law and has existed from when the formal development of human society had its nascence. According to Professor EH Feichbenfield, (1931) a leading scholar in the field, this goes back to the oldest norms of what was considered wrong and right. Indeed, it was premised on the fact that all collections of human beings are equal to one another and, should, be respected as such. From the most unrecorded and uncodified ancient systems of morality and international jurisprudence, it was recognised that in the same way in which men are bonded by certain standards or behaviour, various collections of human groups must conform to what is generally accepted as right in their relationships.
