Justice Evoh Chukwu of the Federal High Court in Abuja has recused himself from a suit instituted by a House of Representatives member, Hon. Abiodun Ishiaq Akinlade, seeking to compel the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Aminu Tambuwal to vacate the seat following his defection from the PDP to the All Progressives Congress (APC).‎
The plaintiff is seeking an order declaring that Tambuwal’s deputy, Emeka Ihedioha, should take over the office of speaker. The matter was consequently assigned to Justice Chukwu.
When the matter came up on Tuesday, the trial judge announced his withdrawal from the suit on the grounds that a petition had been written against him.
Tambuwal had written a petition to the National Judicial Council NJC dated dated November 30 challenging the assignment of the case to Chukwu.
He therefore requested the judge to disqualify himself from sitting over the suit because of likelihood of bias that could prevent him from getting justice.

I'm tired of this Tambuwal issue... let them just leave the man.

Good one. A big blow below d belt for PDP.

Maturity at its peak. My man, Tambuwal; throw in the towel and focus on your gubernatorial race. The judges might differ, but the judgment remains the same even if justice salami comes.

troublesome Tambuwal
