Nyako Failed His Bid To Return As A Governor

 

Federal High Court holding hearing in Yola has dropped a bid to return of the former governor Murtala Nyako.

The judgment was delivered by presiding judge, Justice Bilikus Bello Aliyu.

He said the suit brought before her by Nyako was an misuse of court procedure as three suits are undecided before a competent courts of law on the same subject and as such she cannot divert the case.

This suit is an abuse of this court and courts should protect themselves from abuse,” she said.

The judge has in the course of delivering the order maintained the objection of the counsel to first respondent Leonard Zadon that the same suit is pending before three high courts emphasizing it is an abuse of court procedure.

I cannot contuine with this case as the court runs concurrently,we will not encourage litigants abusing court processes,” she added.

Impeached former governor of Adamawa state has been announced wanted by Nigeria’s apex anti-graft agency several months ago.

Vice Admiral Murtala Nyako was elected Executive Governor of Adamawa state, Nigeria, taking office in May 2007. Prior to then he served in the Navy, at one time being military governor of Niger State, and being appointed Chief of Naval Staff in December 1989.
