“My lords, the law on sale of property by public auction seems fairly settled. By the provision of Section 19 (1) of the Sale by Auction Law 1973, it is provided thus:
19(1) No sale by auction of any land shall take place until after at least seven days public notice thereof has been given in the city of Lagos state, and also at the place of Intended sale. The notice shall be made not only by printed or written document, but also by beat of drum or such other method intelligible to uneducated persons as may be prescribed, or if not prescribed as the State Commissioner may direct, and shall state the name and place of the residence of the seller.” –PER B. A. GEORGEWILL, J.C.A.,in
