Justice Inyang Eden Ekwo of the Federal High Court in Abuja on Wednesday ordered the National Identification Management Commission, NIMC, to immediately

release the bio-data of David Ukpo to the Attorney General of the Federation, AGF, for onward transmission to the United Kingdom Court.

The court issued the order following a request to that effect by the Commission and in response to the request of the detained former Deputy President of the Nigerian Senate, Ike Ekweremadu to defend himself in a London court. Although the court had on July 1 issued an order that the four respondents sued by Ekweremadu release details of David Ukpo to him and his detained wife, Beatrice, NIMC did not obey the order.

At Wednesday’s proceedings, NIMC, represented by Mr Muazu Mohammed, informed Justice Ekwo that his client could not obey the order of the Court because it was not served with a hearing notice before the order was issued against it.In place of revocation of the order, the counsel requested that his client be directed to submit information on David Ukpo to the AGF instead of Ekweremadu for onward transmission to the United Kingdom Court detaining the Nigerian Senator.
