A Kaduna Federal High Court had fixed February 3, 2015 for mention in a suit of alleged unlawful retirement from the Nigerian Army.

Retired Brigadier-General Abdul Qadir Abubakar had dragged the Armed Forces Council, Nigerian Army Council, the Chief of Defence Staff, the Chief of Army Staff and the Ministry of Defence before a Federal High Court challenging his retirement from the Nigerian Army without completing the normal mandatory period of service.

In a suit filed on his behalf by a Kaduna Lawyer, Tajudeen Oladoja, Brigadier Abubakar who is also a lawyer has approached the court to set aside his purported retirement from the Army by the defendants and reinstate him back into the service with all his rights and promotion to the rank of a Major-General.

The Suit No: FCH/KD/CS/56/2014 alleged that the defendants without looking into his appeal carried out the retirement against Section 178 (2) of the Armed Forces Act, CAP A 20 Laws of the Federation, 2004.

Counsel to the plaintiff said in a letter from the second defendants dated 11th December, 2014 the plaintiff was advised to apply for voluntary retirement not later than 31st January, 2014.
