A Federal High Court in Abuja has declined to resume hearing during the ongoing vacation of a suit challenging the dissolution of the Adams Oshiomhole-led National Working Committee of the All Progressives Congress .
Agu asked the FHC to, among others, declare the dissolution of the NWC, led by Oshiomhole, as unconstitutional, illegal, null and void. In another application, the party through its counsel Lateef Fagbemi asked the court to reject a motion by Agu, seeking to have the case heard during its ongoing vacation and to abridge parties’ time to file their processes.
He said: “My critical examination and consideration of the Originating Summons together with the affidavit in support reveals to me that this matter is not a pre-election matter within the meaning of Section 285 and as decided by the superior court. “Having held that this suit is not a pre-election matter to which section 285 of the Constitution, 1999 apply, this court cannot hear this suit during the Court’s vacation as same is not time bound except the parties agree that same be heard at this time.
