Abstract
This case review centered on a judge’s resolve not to allow expatriates, to ruin the spirit and intent of state policy through the use of technical legal compliance, to thwart the intent and policy behind a statute. Although, the Supreme Court of Nigeria was not enamoured, it was suggested by this review that, strict interpretation of statutory provisions may not evolve a justice based economic system.
