Dangiri {2015} 2 NWLR pt 1442 p 124 - Ugwuanyi V. NICON Insurance plc {2013} 11 NWLR pt 1366 p 546 Similarly, a general denial or traverse in a counter affidavit of many paragraphs in an opponent’s main affidavit without more, is in Law ineffectual as against specific allegations of fact in the main affidavit - UBN PLC V.
