“ 35 The above principles in my respectful opinion affirm that the Court can in the exercise of its inherent power consider and determine abuse of process, an issue which both counsel have fully addressed in their respective submissions In my view, such an approach by the Court is in harmony with the view held in Application by Anderson Agiru (supra), where the Supreme Court stated among other things, that the Court can in the exercise of its inherent power summarily dismiss a proceeding which is an abuse of process In my respectful opinion, Lord Diplock stated this same principle in Hunters v Chief Constable of West Midlands Police (supra), which Hartshorn J referred to in NAE Ltd (supra) See also; Breckwoldt & Co (NG) Pty v Gnoyke
