Human rights lawyer Femi Falana (SAN) clarified on Monday that the Supreme Court’s appeal decision against Rivers Governor Siminalayi Fubara against the House of Representatives led by Martin Amaewhule has nothing to do with who is the identity verification person. The spokesperson for the house.
Naija News It was reported that Farana knew this when she was interviewed on Channel TV today after the Supreme Court rejected the governor’s appeal.
He said “The celebration problem does not arise when the appeal is dismissed rather than dismissed based on the appellant’s dismissal. What happened in this case was that the Governor of Rivers directed his attorney to withdraw the appeal on the grounds that it had become an academic exercise.
“In other words, the question is no longer alive, so why waste the court’s time? This is not contradictory to what the colleague said, the court has not determined who is the spokesperson or who is not the Speaker, no, it has not appeared.”
According to Falana, the ruling appealed in the Federal High Court was a budget proposal for 2024, which the governor said had passed, and had passed the law, so there was no need to continue litigation.
The five-member Supreme Court team led by Justice Uwani Abba-Aji dismissed the appeal against the group led by Amaewhule and withdrew the lawsuit with Fubara’s lawyer Yusuf Ali.
