That is to say this Court can take up and decide an issue raised before the Court of Appeal but which was not considered by that Court. See Agbo v State (2006) 6NWLR (Pt.977) 545, Ukwunnenyi v State (1989) 4 NWLR (Pt.114) p.131. Katto v CBN (1999) 6 NWLR (Pt.607) p.390” -PER O. RHODES-VIVOUR, J.S.C. in
