The
Federal High Court sitting in Lagos has restated the validity of the
judgment which restrained the commencement of any extradition process
against Senator Buruji Kashamu.
Justice Ibrahim Buba, in a
judgment delivered today (Tuesday) on a contempt application filed by
Senator Kashamu against the Attorney General of the Federation (AGF) and
the Chairman of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA),
Ahmadu Giade, held that the order made by another judge of the court,
Justice Okon Abang “is still subsisting and must be complied with until
it is set aside by a superior court.”
Justice
Buba dismissed a preliminary objection filed by the NDLEA and then
warned the AGF and the NDLEA Chairman to be of good conduct and obey the
subsisting order of the court.
Counsel on both sides spoke to
our judiciary correspondent, Shola Soyele about the import of this
judgment on the extradition suit pending against Senator Kashamu before
Justice Gabriel Kolawole of the Federal high court in Abuja.
