A Federal High Court in Abuja has dismissed the suit by Senator Dino Melaye of Kogi West, challenging the validity of the process of recalling him by his constituents.

Justice Nnamdi Dimgba, in his judgment delivered on Monday, ordered that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) “shall proceed with the recall process”.

The judgment effectively terminated the earlier ex parte order made by another judge of the Federal High Court in Abuja, Justice John Tsoho, on July 6, 2017, directing parties to maintain status quo.

But the Justice Dimgba, to whom the case was reassigned, ordered that the process shall only proceed with the recall process, subject to the service of the petition, the full list and signatures of persons in support of the recall process.
