“The argument of an appeal against a decision must refer to the decision being argued against and show that the decision is wrong for some reason. An argument would be ineffective and invalid if it does not refer to the decision complained against and does not demonstrate why it is wrong.” Per EMMANUEL AKOMAYE AGIM, JSC in PILLARS (NIG) LTD v. DESBORDES & ANOR (2021-LCER-40496-SC) (Pp 12 – 12; Paras B – C)
