“The lower Court is entitled to judicial Notice of all laws, Gazette and Statutory instruments and Legal Notice published for the information of the public. See Chief Emmanuel Olatunde Lakanmi v Peter Adebayo Adene (2003) 10 NWLR (PART 828) 353 at 374 per Kalgo, JSC who said:-

I have already found earlier in this judgment that Decree No. 28 of 1970, had completely nullified the effect of the judgment of the Supreme Court in Sc. 58/69. Therefore, the Western State of Nigeria Forfeiture Order 1967, WSLN 99 of 1967, stands valid and enforceable, and being a published legal enactment or instrument, it was not necessary in the circumstances of this case to plead it or tender it in court before a court can consider it. See S. 74 of Evidence Act and F.C.D. A. v. Naibi (1990) 3 NWLR (Pt 138) 270.” by PER P. O. IGE, J.C.A., in
