Court of Appeal, Owerri Division, has cited insecurity as the reason why it will be closing its doors to lawyers and litigants.
The court will not sit effective from Monday 28th October, to 1st of November 2024.
A press release signed by the Deputy Chief Registrar and made available to lawyers and newsmen states, “despite the fact that we have issued a HEARING Notice against 28th of October to 1st November, we are compelled by some security concerns to postpone the sitting this week, all Hearing Notices issued stand to be cancelled. We issued this information ahead of time to save your time, energy and money. We are sorry for any inconveniences this might have caused you.”
