Preliminary Objections in Litigation by Prof. Fabian Ajogwu, SAN is a comprehensive and practical guide to one of the most strategic yet frequently misunderstood tools in litigation. Written in response to the growing need for procedural rigour in an overburdened justice system, this handbook examines preliminary objections as essential instruments for safeguarding judicial time, promoting efficiency, and upholding due process.

Structured thematically, the book explores key grounds of objection—including jurisdiction, limitation periods, locus standi, abuse of court process, and procedural non-compliance—supported by case law, doctrinal analysis, and emerging judicial trends.

Designed for practitioners, judges, and students, this work serves as both a reference and a strategic companion, offering clarity, context, and practical guidance for effectively raising and responding to preliminary objections. It is an invaluable resource for those committed to improving advocacy and strengthening the rule of law.
