Kindly share this story:
The Court of Appeal sitting in Awka, Anambra State has granted the Anambra Central senatorial candidate of the Labour Party, Victor Umeh, the permission to serve his Notice of Appeal on Senator Uche Ekwunife of the Peoples Democratic Party through substituted means. Counsel for the appellant, Alex Ejesieme, in a motion experte with Appeal No. CA/AW/24/2023, told the court that the bailiff had made several efforts to serve Ekwunife directly without success.
He accompanied the motion with a 13-paragraph affidavit to support his argument, as well as a bailiff affidavit of attempted service. Ejesieme described the trial court judgment as “rather unfortunate“ in the light of the numerous decisions of the Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court on the subject matter.
