WHAT IS THE ALLOWED PRESUMABLE ORDER OF DEATH OF PERSONS
IN NIGERIA.

No one knows when he/she will die but we all must die some day!
Well, for the sake of sharing property and determining ownership of
property, where two (2) or more persons died in circumstances that
have made it impossible to determine who died before the other,
they would be presumed to have died according to their order of
seniority, with the eldest dying first. The first to come to life
is presumed to be first to die.

My authorities are sections 164 (2) and 259 of the Evidence Act,
2011.
