"The law is settled that where there are conflicting decisions of the Supreme court, the later-in-time will prevail over the older ones.

In that wise, a lower court, this court, by way of stare decisis, is bound to follow later decisions. The recent case of Osakue v F.C.E., Asaba (2010)10 NWLR (Pt.1201) 1 is in point." Per OGBUINYA, J.C.A. in
