Happy to report that due to eternal vigilance, principled and resilient pressure, the Abuja Federal High Court today has again dismissed the application by Senate President Bukola Saraki seeking nullification of his ongoing trial at the Code of Conduct Tribunal, CCT.
Senate President, Abubakar Bukola Saraki has lost the case before Billionaire Justice Abu-Kafarati today, the court has just delivered his judgement claiming the lawsuit filed by Saraki asking to disqualify Justice Danladi Umar of the Code of Conduct Tribunal amounts to abuse of court process and that most of the reliefs sought have been decided in other courts before now. Adding that the CCT is a constitutional body, in the discharge of its legal obligation which should not be interfered with by a court of law.
“I find that none of the claims fall within chapter four of the constitution”
“This court cannot interfere with the proceedings before the tribunal; it cannot also interfere with the duties of the respondents which have been imposed on them by law,” said Mr. Kafarati
Mr. Kafarati also held that the applicant’s claims that the CCT’s trial falls short of the constitutional requirements is “a sentimental claim that has no basis in law.”
The CCT trial will resume next week Monday -April 18 2016. We'll be keeping an eye on the technicians in charge of electricity in the building as well as Judge Umar.
