A Federal High Court sitting in Kano, presided over by Justice Simon Amobeda, has granted an interim order restraining the two commissions of inquiry established by Kano State Governor, Abba Yusuf, from conducting further proceedings until the determination of a suit filed by former Kano State Governor and current APC National Chairman, Dr. Umar Abdullahi Ganduje.
The judge issued an order of interim injunction, stating: “The 4th and 5th Defendants/Respondents are restrained from performing executive functions assigned to them by the Governor of Kano State in court rooms meant to adjudicate disputes between persons and authorities in Kano, pending the hearing and determination of the instant suit.”
The interim order was issued after reviewing the affidavit supporting the ex parte application, sworn to by Idris Abdullahi Dawakin Tofa, and annexures labeled as Exhibits A-C, as well as a written address by the applicant’s counsel, Abdulrrazaq A. Ahmed, Esq.
The respondents, including the National Judicial Council, Revenue Mobilisation Allocation and Fiscal Commission, Attorney-General of Kano State, Hon. Justice Farouk Lawan Adamu, and Hon. Justice Zuwaira Yusuf, have been given five days from the date of receiving the court order and documents to file their response.
