stipulates that the court may grant an injunction by an interlocutory order in
all cases in which it appears to the court to be just or convenient to do so,

conditions as the court considers just. In deciding whether or not to grant an
order of interlocutory injunction it has been held that the court would
consider the justness and convenience of the order<a href="file:///F:/COURT%20OF%20APPEAL/New%20folder/New%20folder/New%20folder/New%20folder%20(2)/Gibson%20Poku%20V.%20Dorothy%20Opoku..docx#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1" title="">[1]</a>.<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>[2]&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Drawing
