AKEEM v. STATE
(2014) LPELR-23084(CA)

ISSUE
OBJECTION TO LANGUAGE USED DURING TRIAL : Duty of an accused or his counsel to notify the Court at the earliest opportunity that he does not understand the language used at the trial

PRINCIPLE
"It is trite law that where the accused does not understand the language used in the trial, it is his duty or the counsel's duty to notify the Court at the earliest opportunity that he does not understand the language used at the trial. The Supreme Court has held time and time again that once an accused person pleads to a charge before the Court without any objection it presupposes that he understands the charge preferred and read against him. Otherwise he would have been ordinarily expected to object and say that he does not understand the technical details of the charge or the language of the Court which is English. See Okewu v. State (2012) 2 SCNJ 126 at 144 and 145. Madu v. State (1997) 1 NWLR (Pt. 482) 386, Ogunye v. State (1999) 5 FWLR (Pt. 604) 545, Adeniji v. State (2001) 13 NWLR (Pt. 730) 375, Okeke v. State (2003) 5 SCM 131 and Solola & Anor. v. State (2005) 6 SCM 137." Per ABIRIYI, J.C.A. (P. 52, paras. A-E)

So many people have committed blunders, lost valuables and perished because they lack knowledge of their rights.

Some victims of police brutality don't know how to exercise their rights and how what to do when their rights were violated.
