295 (3) of the Criminal Procedure Law Cap. 39 Laws of Akwa Ibom State. The non certification of Exhibit B by the High Court Judge is not fatal to the case of the Respondent. The Appellant did not object to the tendering of Exhibit B during the trial and therefore cannot be heard to complain about its admissibility. See Chief Bruno Vs. Chief Oko Udo Ekpe (1983) 3 SC page 12 where the Supreme Court per Aniagolu held: "it is the cardinal rule of evidence, and practice in civil as well as in criminal cases, that an objection to the admissibility of a document sought by a party to put in evidence is taken when the document is offered in Evidence. Barring some exceptions where by law certain documents are rendered in admissible (consent or no consent of the parties not withstanding) for failing to satisfy some conditions or to meet some criteria, the rule still remain inviolate that where objection has not been raised by the opposing party to the reception in evidence of a document (or other evidence - See Chukwura Akune Vs.
