The judge lamented, “This matter has suffered several adjournments. The delay is hurting everybody and putting the state at expense.
“We have been here since 2018 till 2022, at the instance of the defendant. I awarded a cost of N2.5 million because the delay was unwarranted. “If there is further delay, I will award another cost because I don’t see why you have an application to amend your statement of defence and you didn’t come with the amended statement to file it.”The claimant had instituted the suit on May 16, 2018 and served the defendant through the Comptroller General of Prison, Kirikiri maximum prison Lagos.
The defendant was initially represented by a lawyer in March 2019 and was accorded every opportunity to defend the suit but failed to do so. However, when the claimant closed his case on March 3, 2022, the defendant came back seeking leave of court to defend himself.All rights reserved.
