The Labour Party, LP, has described Monday’s ruling of the Abuja High Court on the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) certificate forgery case involving the Governor of Enugu State, Peter Mbah as bizarre and unconventional.
The LP claimed the objective of the ruling, which it described as 'offbeat and curious,' was essentially to ambush and weaken the case of well-laid points by its gubernatorial candidate, Chijoke Edeoga. The Party's reaction is contained in a statement issued on Wednesday by Obiora Ifoh, its National Publicity Secretary.
reported that an Abuja High Court, on Monday, dismissed the allegations of forgery of a discharge certificate brought against Mbah by NYSC. According to Ifoh, the ruling of Justice Inyang Ekwo was yet another of some strange rulings of the court aimed at ridiculing the nation’s judiciary and undermining our democracy. The Party said the Judiciary should save itself from anything that will undermine the will of the people of Enugu State as freely expressed in the last gubernatorial election.
