A Federal High Court sitting in Kano, has dismissed the purported suspension of National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Ganduje, by self-acclaimed members of the party’s executive in his ward.

The ruling came on Wednesday after Ganduje filed an ex parte motion seeking to enforce his fundamental right to fair hearing.

The respondents in the application are the Police, Department of State Services (DSS), Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), and nine other individuals.

On April 16, APC executives in Dawakin ward, Tofa LGA of Kano, purportedly suspended Ganduje over alleged corruption.

Subsequently, the State Working Committee of the APC in Kano nullified the suspension and punished the ward executives.

However, Usman Na’Abba, a Kano High Court judge upheld the purported suspension on the same day.

In the ex parte order delivered on Wednesday by the Federal High Court and made available to newsmen on Thursday, A.M Liman, a judge of the Federal High Court in Kano said the purported suspension should not be implemented until the case is heard and determined.

“”That all the Respondents, their servants, agents or privies are hereby restrained from Implementing and/or giving effect to the purported decision reached during the purported emergency meeting of the alleged Executive members of APC Ganduje Ward, held at Ganduje Ward of Dawakin Tofa Local.

“That all the parties are hereby mandated to maintain status quo before the purported emergency meeting of the alleged executive members of APC Ganduje Ward, and to stay action in respect of this matter pending the hearing and determination of the substantive application,” Liman said.

The judge subsequently fixed April 30 to hear Ganduje’s appeal.

Nigeria constitution has been deliberately carved to protect politicians and oppress others not deemed among the circles. Too many laws open to interpretation.

I don't understand how any Nigerian can support this man because of partisanship.
