called as Witnesses. I shall therefore not attach any probative value to them. See LAMBERT VS. NIGERIAN NAVY (2006) 7 NWLR (PT. 980) 525. The evidence of the Prosecuting Witness is that the Defendant hit the deceased with a plank infested with nail on the back head. The Defendant fell down and was bleeding profusely. He was rushed to the General Hospital where he died while receiving treatment. The above evidence is hearsay. The Complainant was not called to testify neither were all other Witnesses listed. However, the only piece of evidence that threw some light on the ingredient is the Statement of the Defendant. I have earlier reproduced that part of the evidence. 27
