SmartPolician:
The judiciary is doing a lot of damage to this country. These folks cannot be poking their noses into everything.

How about striking out cases brought before them when the case is absurd? If the people who elected Natasha think they want to recall her, why should the judiciary stop them?

Jatuski:
The Federal High Court sitting at Lokoja on Thursday, 20th March, 2025, granted an interim injunction restraining the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) from receiving petition for the purpose of initiating a re-call process against Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan as Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.



The competent Court also restricted INEC staff, agents, privies or assigns from accepting or acting on any petition containing fictitious signatures of purported members of Kogi Central Senatorial District and conducting any referendum upon such pending the determination of the Motion on Notice to the same effect.



The court, according to the order paper made available to newsnen Friday morning, granted the application following an Ex-parte application for interim injunction supported by an Affidavit of Extreme urgency together with other court processes sworn to by Anebe Jacob Ogirima for himself and four others who are registered voters and constituents of Kogi Central Senatorial District of Kogi state.



The application was moved by Smart Nwachimere, Esq of West-Idahosa, SAN & Co.



The case has been adjourned to 6th May, 2025 for report of service and further mention.



Reacting to the development, a pressure group, Action Collective, praised the judiciary for granting the order.



The group's coordinator, Dr. Onimisi Ibrahim, said in his reaction that "the order will further expose impunity of some sponsored individuals behind the failed plot to recall Senator Natasha."

spencekat:
Good one! Let them continue.

inoki247:
Lol I thought the people lining up for her recall are deceived...


So why running to court and been scared..

At least she should be sure that the people who voted for her are ready to stand beside her and make the recall fail....

Electorate:
Good development.

Meanwhile, Nigeria doesn't have a National Assembly presently, We only have a gathering of clowns, Tinubu's slaves, Executive stooges, Breakers of the law they were supposed to protect, History will remember them as the worst rubber-stamp National Assembly Nigeria ever had.

Very anyhow people with no shame at all.

Akpakomiza2:
They will still remove her

UltraSolid:
This question should be for those who insist Natasha is an 'innocent victim' being preyed upon by 'monster' Akpabio rather than a cynical, calculative, opportunist, money-chasing, clout-worshipping and deliberately wayward Jezebel who knows how to play gullible folks, especially men, and the system to get her ways.

She has now gone to buy an injunction from a corrupt judge, as guilty Nigerian politicians do, to escape democratic justice as they have been doing since the days of Odili. What say you now supporters of Senator Jezebel jam Delilah Natasha?

Why should any judge interfere with the recall power of those who put Natasha in her Senatorial job when such is a sacrosanct aspect of democracy and the inalienably automatic right of the electorate?

The process will go on, the judgement will eventually be vacated

EmperorIsaac:
She has forgotten that the Establishment also controls the judiciary.

You're wrong. she has forgotten a court cant stop INEC from performing it's duty

EmperorIsaac:
How am I wrong?

Ikaeniyan0:
No court can stop INEC from performing it's duty

allthingsgood:

Your anger is too much. She is not responsible for your frustrations in life. Calm down

EmperorIsaac:
I didn't say they can under the Establishment.

valentineuwakwe:
See how we are getting distracted in this country with one thing or the other that is not important....

Instead of the federal Government to concentrate on giving and sending incentives to the Super Eagles in far away Kigali so as to beat Rwanda and put us back on the table for world cup qualification (since football brings joys to many Nigerians) , they are busy with playing to the gallery of one tyrant in Abuja and 27 house boy-boy!

Now its natasha case n Akpabio...na wa oo

Ikaeniyan0:
You are likely paid to post false information

EmperorIsaac:
You must be a part of the Establishment. I will counsel you to desist from it. People are truly suffering from poor leadership.
