Justice Inyang Ekwo, in a judgement on Friday, held that the plaintiff, Azubuike Oko, who claimed to be a lawyer from Ebonyi, lacked the legal right to institute the matter. Justice Ekwo also affirmed the objection raised by Akinlolu Kehinde, counsel for the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Olukayode Ariwoola; the National Judicial Council; and the Chief Judge of the FCT High Court, Hussein Baba-Yusuf.
He alleged that currently, Oyo and Kogi “already had two serving judges in the FCT High Court, and the two states were given additional slots to now have three judges, despite the fact that Ebonyi State has no single serving judge in the High Court of the FCT.” Justice Ekwo, in the judgement on Friday, held that the plaintiff was not saying that he had personal injury caused by the CJN, NJC and the Chief Judge of the FCT or any other defendant in the case for which he sought remedy.
