On meaning of the term, audi alteram partem
Audi Alteram Partem means please hear the other side. Natural Justice demands that a party must be heard before the case against him is determined. Once a party can satisfy the court that his right to fair hearing was infringe, he is entitled to a remedy. Akeredolu v. Akinremi (1986) 2 NWLR (Pt. 25) P 71 0; Unongo v. Aku (1983) 2 SCNLRP 332.
