In a pure master-and-servant contract of employment without statutory flavour, what is the established standard measure of damages recoverable by an employee for wrongful termination where the employer failed to give the required contractual notice?

Under Nigerian employment jurisprudence governing private contracts (master-and-servant relationship), a court will not grant reinstatement. The measure of damages for wrongful termination (i.e. termination without proper notice) is limited to the salary and entitlements the employee would have earned during the stipulated notice period had the employer lawfully exercised the right to terminate.
