A Federal High Court sitting in Lagos and presided over by Hon Justice D. E. Osiagor, has dismissed the stay of execution suit filed by Bola-Audu Innocent and his group in respect of his order issued recently in which he restored Comrade Tommy Etim Okon and Comrade Alade Bashir Lawal as the National President and Secretary-General of Association of Senior Civil Servants of Nigeria (ASCSN) respectively and emphasized that both officers remain the authentic and legal signatories to the bank accounts of the Union.
Justice Osiagor faulted the refusal of Bola-Audu and his group to obey his final order of 26th October 2022 and lambasted one Gamaliel Acho who, in a press statement described his order as “judicial advice.”
He also frowned at the attitude of Bola-Audu and his group for jumping from one court to another in an attempt to get a favourable ruling on the same matter.
The judge described as “wicked” the court processes filed by Bola-Audu and his group on 6th September 2022 which shut off the real parties to the dispute namely Comrade Tommy Etim Okon and Comrade Alade Bashir Lawal,. National President and Secretary-General of the Association respectively and presented the police authorities and the Banks of the Union as Respondents.
He said that the police and Banks have no business with the matter as they were not the organs of the Association that removed him from office.
Justice Osiagor viewed the entire stay of execution motion as baseless and hollow and accordingly dismissed it.
