The Federal High Court, Abuja, has nullified some sections of the Companies and Allied Matters Act , 2020 which were considered to infringe on the fundamental human rights of the Nigerian citizens.
In the originating summons dated and filed on 31 August 2020, the lawyer prayed the court to determine whether he had the locus standi to institute the proceeding. He asked the court to determine whether the court had powers to grant mandatory injunctive reliefs against the defendants. He also held that the provisions of the Administrative Proceedings Committee in Section 851 of the new CAMA denied the plaintiff his constitutional rights of access to court in sections 6 and Section 36 of the constitution and also usurped the powers of the Federal High Court under Section 251 of the constitution.
