The Federal High Court has declared as unlawful
the defection of 53 lawmakers in the National
Assembly to other political parties.


Delivering the judgement today, Justice Okon
Abang held that based on the judgement of the
Supreme Court, which gave reasons that would
allow for defection, the lawmakers did not meet
that requirement.

The judgement followed a suit filed by the Legal
Defence Assistance Project (LEDAP), challenging
the defection of the Senate President Dr Bukola
Saraki, the Speaker of the House of
Representatives, Yakubu Dogara and 51 other
lawmakers and Senator Godswill Akpabio.


LEDAP had asked the court to order the
lawmakers to vacate their seats in the National
Assembly and return all salaries and allowances
earned since their defection, arguing that the
lawmakers defected from their political parties for
selfish reasons other than division in their parties
as prescribed by law.

But in the case of Senator Godswill Akpabio,
Justice Abang held that he did not violate the law
because he neither decamped nor defected to the
All Progressives Congress (APC) with the facts
before the court.

The court had on Monday, granted leave to the
senator to file an application challenging the suit
by LEDAP, saying that there is no evidence before
it that he was personally served, since the suit is
not a class act against the Senate.

So with the exception of apkabio.. His sins were washed away after all

Hello � House, is anybody from Ijebu, Ogun State using 9mobile Data.. I want to ask about there Internet Network there? I want to know how good 9mobile Internet Network presently there. THANKS

All these quack lawyers, this foolish judgment is ironical, everybody in this country even this blind charge and bail lawyers, was aware the deep crises APC was into that led to saraki and his colleagues defection unlike akpoabio that defected in order for his sins to be forgiven according to adam oshiomole.

Everything is spoilt in this country
