"It is settled law that where a charge of a single count is altered or amended, it is mandatory for the Court to take a fresh plea of the accused and it is imperative on the accused to plead to the amended charge. This procedure is fundamental and failure to comply with it renders the conviction based on the amended count invalid." In ALONGE TEMITOPE V. THE STATE Suit No; CA/B/291C(A)/2008 Per Adumein, J.C.A. (P.21, Paras.A-B)
