</div><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>The
court must satisfy itself of the date 1st Defendant entered
appearance. Is it the 27th February, 2019 as stated by Counsel for
Plaintiff? If it is correct, then the instant application is incompetent since
it has been filed above the limitation period of 14 days. It was filed on 19th
March, 2019. This means the application is incompetent. It is filed outside the
fourteen days. See Order 9, rule 8 of C.I 47.<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>However
this court will make orders for effective determination of the matters in this
suit.<o:p></o:p>The
court will rely on Order 4, rule 5 (2) of C. I 47 and make the Attorney General
(A. G) a party and at the same time strike out 1st Defendant – NADMO
as a party.<o:p></o:p>Finally
the court will stay proceedings and order the Plaintiff to comply with section
10 of the State Proceedings Act, 1998 (Act 555).<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>Article
88(5) of the constitution mandates the A. G.&nbsp;
to be made Defendant in all actions against the state.<o:p></o:p>
