The Federal High Court in Kano has granted an interim order restraining the two commissions of inquiry established by the Kano State Governor from conducting further proceedings.
The court issued the order in response to a suit filed by Dr. Umar Abdullahi Ganduje, the former Governor of Kano State and current National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Justice Simon Amobeda ordered an interim injunction restraining the 4th and 5th defendants/respondents (Hon. Justice Farouk Lawan Adamu and Hon. Justice Zuwaira Yusuf) from performing executive functions assigned to them by the Governor of Kano State, pending the hearing and determination of the suit.
The respondents were been given five days from the date of receiving the court order and documents to file their response.
The court fixed May 28, 2024, for the hearing.
