the application is incompetent because order 25 r 1(3) says applicant shall attach a statement of case. That is mandatory

In the case of Okofoh estate v Modern Signs Ltd it was held that the failure of an applicant to argue his case in full which has not caused any perceptible hardships and the non compliance (of adding a Statement of case) was a mere technicality and not fatal to the application.

Per Order 25 rule 3 the non inclusion of a statement of case however would not render the interlocutory injunction void.
