Keywords:
SECTION 84, , LAWS OF THE FEDERATION OF NIGERIAAbstract
“appropriate officer” in this case, the Attorney General’s consent as required by statute, against
a public financial institution like the Central Bank of Nigeria who is a banker to the
government. Thus, the interpretation of Section 84(3) of the Sheriffs and Civil Process Act by
the various Courts of Appeal in Nigeria with coordinate jurisdiction is conflicting and
uncertain, thereby occasioning miscarriage of justice to the litigants. This paper seeks to
streamline this position by proffering recommendations that will aid good business relationship
between the citizens and the government.
