Yes, when a case is in court, it will be prejudicial for a committee to sit on that matter.
Which case? The case in court is sexual harassment and not indiscipline or disregard for Senate rules.

When did a court stop the legislature from carrying out it's business? This overreach of the arms of government in Nigeria is just funny

You all talking trash here, have you forgotten a certain lady an MD in NNDC, couple of years complained about Akpabio's harassment up to a point she had to slap Akpabio. Take a look at the below link and think twice why you must defend and extol evil.

Why not probing Akpabio. Is he a god or above the law that can't be probe?
It is the accuser (Natasha) that needs to proof her allegations. Then the investigation takes place. The accused (Akpabio) only needs to defend himself

No Court has the power to stop the Senate, the House of Representatives or any sub-group thereof from performing any of their Constitutional duties. You can only go to court to challenge the outcome or result of such duty.

Natasha is digging her hole deeper than it is.
one day your daughter will have same case as hers

Now people will tell you "your daughter is digging her hole deeper than it is"

Maxymilliano:
The court doesn't have any jurisdiction over senate plenary ...
Yes, the court has the right to stop the Senate Committee from probing Senator Natasha, based on its power of judicial review and its responsibility to address potentially unlawful or unconstitutional actions. The final legitimacy of this decision will depend on the details of the case, which would be clarified through further judicial proceedings. This is an interim order, meaning it is a temporary measure while the court further reviews the case. This is a common judicial practice when there is a need to prevent potential harm or injustice before a final ruling is made.
This intervention does not necessarily mean the matter is fully resolved. The Senate could appeal the decision, potentially leading to a broader legal dispute about the balance of power between the judiciary and the legislature. For now, though, the court's authority to step in aligns with its role in upholding the rule of law and ensuring that legislative actions comply with constitutional and legal standards.

The court cannot interfere in that manner. Just as the National Assembly cannot pass a motion compelling the judiciary to assign a court case to a particular judge.

This is why the Courts is not receiving enough backing from the Public!
Why can't you allow the Legislative arms of government to do their jobs?
Is the Sexual Harassment by this Natasha the first time in her life? NO
Why is she now using it as a weapon 🔫 against the Male opposition?
Definitely,😁 they are using her to disrupt the Workings in the National Assembly!
NIGERIANS are Watching!

It's just an Ex-parte order.
The Court will vacate the order once the Senate enters defence and shows cause why she should appear before the ethics committee.
If you don't know how court processes work, just shut up.
Enters defense with who exactly? What's the court's business with the Senate in the first place?

As different men have drilled her two holes, she herself is drilling them deeper. And has fallen into Yahaya Bello’s trap and she will be suspended indefinitely

I repeat she's most foolish. There has been cases of her riding on sexual harassment as a weapon even against her present husband in 2020. I m not a fan of Akpabio however this Natasha gimmick don cast . Nothing will happen on the case against Akpabio.

Going to Google AI chat to copy and paste a matter you obviously has no knowledge about is something else.

The Court cannot interfere in a matter that arose out of the internal affairs of the Senate or any Legislative body. The Constitutional principle of separate of powers dictates that. Why any arm of government is acting within its constructional functions,no other arm of government can stop the function. In this case, the Committee''s duty to look into issues that arose during the plenary or sitting of the Senate.

The only way the Court can come in under the principle of checks and balances is to subject that function or action of the Senate to review, after the action has been completed.

That is what judicial review is all about. Judicial review does not prevent or restrain an action of an arm of Government from being carried out; it only subjects the function to review after it has been done, whether it is legal or done according to law and due process. That is why it is called 'review', which means being viewed or reconsidered again. It is not a judicial 'pre-view' that would have been to consider an act before it it is done.

Have you seen the prayers thereof?

Can any institution probe a matter that is already before a court of competent jurisdiction?
So if a Senate wants to seat on a particular bill that'll eventually translate to law, anyone can easily go court to stop it because he or she doesn't like it?

The judge who gave this injunction should be sacked. What are we doing to our future?

Let her go and face the ethics committee of the Nigerian Senate which she is a part of.

Why is she afraid of being asked questions about her allegations?

And why didn't she report the sexual allegations to the authorities if she didn't trust the Senate itself? instead of defaming another member (the Senate President for that matter) on live television.

This whole mess ridicules the Legislature as an arm of the government, making other countries around the world to take Nigeria as a joke.

Are we saying she should rubbish the Senate and not be probed.

Why do we have so many unintelligent people in this country? It is people who have such brains like those that believed that Buhari was dead and later cloned will be shameless saying that court has power to stop the Senate committee from carrying out the investigation. Why did many of you just go to school but never educated. You just waste your family money in your useless education if you still dont know that No court can stop the Senate from carrying out their functions in any capacity. What a shame!
