The Ughelli zonal head , however, admonished participants to utilize the opportunity, adding that any knowledge acquired was useful.
The resource persons including H. N Edevbie , Esq and T R Anuhwin , Esq, both Deputy Directors in the Ministry exposed participants to key areas of their practice such as the Admissibility of Confessional Statement under the Administration of Criminal Justice Law 2022.
