"The purpose of Sections 2(1) and 24 of the Legal Practitioners Act, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 2004, is to ensure that only a Legal Practitioner whose name is on the roll of the Supreme Court should sign Court processes. It is to ensure responsibility and accountability on the part of a legal practitioner who signs a Court process. It is to ensure that fake lawyers do not invade the profession. See:- Ibrahim Vs Barde (1996) 9 NWLR (Pt.474) 513; U.A. Ventures VS FCMB (1998) 4 NWLR (Pt.547) 546 IBWA VS Imano (Nig.) Ltd. & Anor (1988) 7 S.C. (Reprint) (Pt.III)l 14. The words employed in drafting Sections 2(1) and 24 of the Legal Practitioners Act, Law of the Federation of Nigeria 2004, are simple and straight forward. The literal construction of the Law is that Legal Practitioners who are animate personalities should sign Court processes and not a firm of Legal Practitioners which is in animate and cannot be found in the roll of this Court. See:- F.B.N. Plc & 3 Ors Vs Maiwade & 2 Ors (2012) 5 S.C. (Pt.11I) 1; Alawiye Vs Ogunsanya 2012) 12 S.C. (Pt.III)l." PER. S. D. BAGE, J.S.C
