From the paragraphs of the supporting affidavit as reproduced above, it has disclosed cogent reasons for the delay in not appealing timeously more especially at paragraphs 3 (iv) where the applicant filed an application for leave to appeal on 3/08/2018 (Exhibit ‘MDM 3’) but same had to await assignment to a judge for hearing. Paragraph 4 (iv) also shows that the applicant is out of time owing to the costly delay in waiting for assignment of its application for leave at the lower Court. These are cogent reasons in the eyes of the law that will allow the grant of the application – Yiborku v. Republic (1968) 1 All NLR 343; Saffieddine v. C.O.P. (1965) 1 All NLR 54.
