The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has adjourned the case filed by the Deputy Governor of Ondo State, Hon. Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa, challenging his impeachment by the state House of Assembly, to October 16, 2023.
Counsel to the plaintiff also argued that the House of Assembly’s petition to the National Judicial Council against the presiding judge, Justice Emeka Nwite, had created a cloud of uncertainty over the case and that it would be in the best interest of justice to await the outcome of the NJC’s investigation.
Justice Nwite, in his ruling, said he was inclined to grant the adjournment in order to encourage the reconciliation process and to protect the integrity of the court. The judge also advised any party dissatisfied with any decision of the court to follow the appropriate channels laid down for remedy.
