“I agree with his lordship's reasoning and conclusion that the appeal is incompetent having been filed out of the time allowed by law and without time having been extended for the appellant to file the appeal. This Court lacks the jurisdiction to hear and determine the appeal. See Etim V. The State (1982) LPELR-1173 (SC) and Adelekan V. Ecu Line U V (2006) LPELR-113 (SC)”
