Holding

The appeal is dismissed with no orders as to costs.

Facts

The 1st respondent inherited Land Parcel No. 1845 from his father in 1967 and sub-divided it, allocating portions to his sons and three purchasers. The appellant claimed 1.83 acres of the suit land, leading to an objection by the 1st respondent.

Issues

  1. Usurpation of powers by the 2nd respondent in hearing the objection
  2. Denial of a fair hearing to the 1st respondent
  3. Unprocedural, irregular, irrational, illegal, and improper determination of the matter by the 2nd respondent

Reasoning

The court found that the 2nd respondent did not usurp the powers of the Land Committee and that the 1st respondent was not denied a fair hearing. The determination of the matter was found to be procedurally sound.

Outcome
