RESORTING TO SOCIAL MEDIA TO SET BOOBY TRAPS FOR THE COURTS

Dictum

From all I have endeavored to say above, it is seen that this appeal is one of the frivolous appeals that this court has been inundated with in recent times. And in this type of appeal, the promoters resort to social media to set booby traps for the court in order to blackmail it. This is quite unfortunate and I can only advice the perpetrators to desist from such activities. This appeal lacks merit and is dismissed by me. I abide by the order as to costs in the Lead Judgment.
