A Federal High Court in Abuja has refused to grant an ex-parte motion filed by the Deputy Governor of Edo State, Philip Shaibu, seeking an interim order to stop the impeachment process by the state House of Assembly.

In the motion marked: FHC/ABJ/CS/321/2024, the state government; the state governor; the state House of Assembly; the state House of Assembly Speaker; Clerk, the state Chief Judge; Inspector General of Police and Director General of the Department of State Services were listed as first to eight defendants.

Shaibu, in the suit, sought an order of the court restraining the third to fifth defendants from commencing any process by issuing a notice of allegation, holding proceedings, or setting up any panel of investigation for his removal pending the hearing of a motion on notice.

He also sought an interim injunction restraining the defendants whether by themselves or their agents, from interfering with the res/subject matter of the originating summons filed in the suit either by way of taking any adverse actions about any attempt or process targeted at his removal from office as the deputy governor pending the hearing of the motion on notice.

Other reliefs sought are, “An order of interim injunction restraining the 1st-8th defendants whether by themselves, their agents, privies, servants, officials, representatives and/or any other person or authority acting through them from preventing the plaintiff either by threat of removal from office or adverse actions capable of hindering the plaintiff from performing his official duties and discharging his responsibilities as the Deputy Governor of Edo State including, attending State Executive Council meetings/functions and other duties.

“An order of interim injunction directing the defendants herein jointly, whether by themselves, their agents, privies, servants, officials, representatives, and/or any other person or authority acting through them to maintain status quo ante bellum prevailing before the issuance of the purported notice or petition to commence removal of the Plaintiff from office pending the hearing and the final determination of the Motion on Notice. ”

However, in the ruling dated March 13, which was sighted by our correspondent on Tuesday, the trial judge, Justice James Omotosho, declined the deputy governor’s prayers.

It read, “That the motion expartee for interim injunction dated and filed 8th day of March 2024 is hereby refused.”

Meanwhile, at the proceedings on Tuesday, the judge fixed Wednesday for hearing in another motion ex-parte brought by the plaintiff seeking substituted service on the defendants due to his inability to serve them.

Interesting one. Meanwhile, I sell vintage shirts. See my thread for details

Edo no be Lagos

Why will any court intervene in the affairs of the legislature? This is the way it's supposed to be but if this had been about APC or Tinubu, the wailing wailers would be abusing the courts by now.
This is the same way that the River assembly has the right to impeach their Governor, it's perfectly legal. But the anti-Tinubu clan only reasons properly when it favors a side that they support.
Pathetic hypocrites.

Oya sope otilo

Goner

Obaseki is really dealing with this man with full force...

Honestly, I hope PDP wins, because shuib will so bee happy ehn, I'm seeing shuib working with Labour Party to win the election

Who has a problem between Shuaib, Obaseki and Oshiomole.

Four years ago Shuaib ensured he worked for the re election of him and his boss relegating Oshiomole but now it is Shuaib and Obaseki.

Bottom line, politicians only fight for what favour them

😢😢😢

The incompetent of Edo is the one behind this

The worst Governor in Nigeria

Your political carrier is over. Lesson learnt. Always be loyal to your boss

GAME OVAAAA otogbaaa

Smh

Rule number 1 of the 48laws of power is : Never Outshine the Master. There's no forgiveness in such

It's not late Philip Shuibu should quickly make peace with Obaseki and get a soft landing by ending the tenure with his principal
