Lawyer drags Kano Court Judge to NJC over Oshiomhole’s suspension
One lawyer named Andrew Emwanta has dragged a judge of the Federal High Court in Kano, Justice Lewis Allagoa to the National Judicial Council, NJC, for alleged misconduct as a presiding judge.
Recall that Justice Allagoa on Thursday set aside a ruling of the FCT High Court suspending the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole.
According to a petition filed by Mr Emwanta, the interim order by justice Allagoa was hurriedly granted in favour of the defendants in the suit, less than 24 hours after Mr Oshiomhole was stopped by an injunction from Justice Danlemi Senchi, from parading himself as the APC National Chairman.
He stated that justice Allagoa’s ruling has inflicted a transitional crisis in the National Headquarters of the APC.
Meanwhile, Newsflash247 had earlier reported that the Nigerian police Force had sealed the National Headquarters of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Abuja.
Both staff and journalists, who arrived at the secretariat, were turned back by heavily-armed policemen at the place.
The police also condoned off the entire road leading to the secretariat.
It was gathered that the large presence of security personnel at the place was aimed at preventing Oshiomhole from coming near the secretariat.
