Judge Backpedals On Order Suspending Ganduje

By Kayode Sanni-Arewa

Justice Usman Na’Abba of Kano state high court has vacated an order he earlier gave restraining National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Ganduje, from parading himself as a member of the ruling party.

The judge gave the previous order after Ganduje ward executives led by one Haladu Gwanjo suspended Ganduje.

But following an ex parte motion moved by Ganduje’s counsels L O Oyewo, A Falana and J. Essiet, the judge vacated the previous order.

“An order of interim injunction is hereby granted staying the execution of the order of interim injunction contained in the ruling of this court delivered on 17th,April, 2024 directing parties to maintain status quo ante as at 15th day of April 2024 in relation to the suspension of the 4th respondent/Applicant from the 1st respondent by the Ganduje ward executive committee pending the hearing and determination of the 4th respondent motion on notice,” the judge held while making a U-turn.

The court subsequently fixed Tuesday, April 30, 2024, for hearing of the motion on notice.

Justice Na’Abba had earlier granted an interim order affirming the suspension of Ganduje by his APC ward executives on Monday April 15.

Haladu Gwanjo and Laminu Sani Barguma had joined APC, its national executive committee, Kano state APC executive committee and Abdullahi Umar Ganduje in the suit after the suspension of Ganduje from the party.
