October 1991
M'bama v Registered Trustees of the African International Church (Civil Cause 156 of 1988) [1991] MWHC 29 (23 October 1991)
Plaintiff failed to prove ownership of church; unreliable documents and contradictions led to dismissal with costs.
Property — church ownership — evidential burden of proof; documentary reliability — cheques and altered invoices; licence to occupy — oral licence not proved; even payment by individual does not necessarily confer ownership on individual where building serves church.
23 October 1991
