Supreme Court Quashes Agbazuere’s Suit Against Ginger Onwusibe | READ DETAILS
The Supreme Court in Abuja on Thursday, March 30, dismissed the Appeal filed by Prof. A.C.B. Agbazuere and the PDP against the candidacy of the Member-Elect for the Isiala Ngwa North/Isiala Ngwa South Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Hon. Ginger Onwusibe, who is also a sitting member of the Abia State House of Assembly representing the Isiala Ngwa North State Constituency.
The Appeal No. SC/CV/420/2023 between PDP Vs. INEC; Labour Party, Onwusibe Obinna Ginger had earlier come up for hearing on Tuesday March 28, 2023.
Lead Counsel to the Appellant, Prof. Mike Ozekhome, SAN had asked for an adjournment because the time within which he was to reply to the Briefs of the Respondents was still running.
Hon. Ginger Onwusibe’s Counsel, Nnamdi Nwokocha-Ahaaiwe, Esq. however informed the Court that there was no need to adjourn the Appeal which should be dismissed in limine because it was purely AN ACADEMIC EXERCISE since the Supreme Court no longer had the jurisdiction to adjudicate the substantive issues in the Originating Summons, thus making the reliefs sought in the Appeal by the Appellant, ungrantable.
However, Prof. Ozekhome, SAN insisted on his right to an adjournment and the Supreme Court obliged him with an adjournment to March 30, 2023.
At the resumed hearing of the Appeal today, Justices of the Apex Court after hearing from the counsels, stated described the Appeal as a waste of the court’s time.
Prof. Mike Ozekhome, SAN, however applied to withdraw the Appeal which the Supreme Court thereafter dismisses the suit.
Reacting to his victory, Hon. Ginger Onwusibe, who was also present at the Supreme Court said the judiciary has upheld justice.
Onwusibe had won the same matter at the Federal High Court and Court of Appeal.
