BREAKING: Court Rules On Suit Seeking Buhari’s Sack From Office
A Federal High Court in Abuja has struck out a suit seeking to sack President Muhammadu Buhari from office.
former presidential candidate of Hope Democratic Party (HDP) in the 2019 elections, Chief Ambrose Albert Owuru, had approached the court to challenge Buhari, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), in the previous election.
In the suit, Owuru prayed the court to declare the presidential seat vacant and swear him in as the authentic winner of that election.
However, following hearings, the suit was on Monday thrown out by Justice Inyang Edem Ekwo on three major grounds.
Parts of the grounds are that the suit constituted a gross abuse of court process, statute barred and was an affront to the supremacy of the Supreme Court of Nigeria.
The presiding judge held that the suit was baseless, frivolous, irritating, and vexatious in its entirety.
