Court Terminates Hearing on Eligibility Suits against President-Elect Buhari
According to Vanguard, the Abuja Division of the Federal High Court on Wednesday terminated two individual suits that challenged Muhammed Buhari‘s eligibility to participate in the presidential elections.
The report further states:
Justice Ademola Adeniyi struck out the suits after they were withdrawn by the plaintiffs through separate notices of discontinuance they filed before the high court.
The plaintiffs, Chukwunweike Okafor, and Max Ozoaka, through their respective lawyers, Chief Mike Ozehkome, SAN, and Dr. Chike Amobi, told the court that they decided to withdraw the matter in order to allow the President-elect, Buhari, to effectively run the affairs of the nation without distractions.
