Tobi Soniyi in Abuja
Former Acting Governor of Adamawa State, Ahmadu Umaru
(Fintiri) is pressing on with his appeal to set aside the
judgment of the Federal High Court which removed him from
office and ordered the swearing in of James Ngilari as
governor.
In a notice of appeal filed by Chief Duro Adeyele, SAN, of
Bayo Ojo and Co. Chambers, the former acting governor
raised eight grounds of appeal upon which he asked the
Appeal Court to rely and set aside the judgment of Justice
Adeniyi Ademola of the Federal High Court.
In the alternative, he is asking the court to remit the case
back to the Federal High Court, Abuja, for trial by way of writ
of summons and by another judge.
Details to follow.
