Fed High Court Clears Saraki To Constitute Senate Standing C’ttees

The Federal High Court in Abuja has refused to grant an ex-parte order seeking to stop the Senate President Bukola Saraki from constituting the senate standing committees .

While ruling on Tuesday in an ex-parte motion filed and argued by Manman Osuman on behalf of five senators led by Senator Kabir Marafa, Justice Gabriel Kolawole held that there was nothing urgent in what the plaintiffs are asking for.

Justice kolawole said that the senate standing order 2015 as amended upon which the plaintiffs predicated their experts motion ,had been in  existence since June9 when the Senate President and Deputy Senate President Ike Ekweremadu were elected  as such the issue of urgency raised by the five senator was self inflicted .

Ruling further, the Judge  said  that rushing to the court 24hours to the resumption of the Senate Plenary will not be indulged by any law court ,because the issue of urgency has become belated.
