"The point cannot be over-emphasized that all the law requires a Court to determine at the stage of a no case submission is whether the prosecution had made out a prima facie case, it is not to evaluate evidence or consider the credibility of witnesses even if the evidence adduced were that of an accomplice. See DABOH VS STATE (1977) 11 NSCC 309 at 315 and STATE VS EMEDO (supra)."

 

Per OYEWOLE, J.C.A. IN DPP v. AKPAN CITATION: (2018) LPELR-44047(CA)
