By Tex Okechukwu Esq.
The Special Panel of the Court of Appeal, set up by the President of the Court of Appeal, consisted of Tsammani JCA (presiding) Maiwada Abdullahi JCA and Musale JCA.
Today, July 28th 2021, the Special Panel of the Court of Appeal took arguments on the Application for Leave to Appeal filed by APGA and the National Chairman, Ọzọnkpu Dr. Victor Ike Oye.
The APGA/Oye legal team in Kano was led by Chief Wole Olanipekun SAN with Chief P.I.N Ikwueto SAN, Chief Steve Nwoga and Ifeanyi Mbaeri Esq all appearing for APGA and Oye.
One Umaru Siad Esq. purportedly announced appearance for APGA. He attempted to challenge APGA and Oye’s authority to file the Application for Leave on APGA’s behalf.
Upon serious reprimand by the Court of Appeal not to allow himself to be used and messed up by politicians, he withdrew his Motion and vanished.
After taking arguments from the parties, the Court of Appeal adjourned to Friday 30th July 2021 for Ruling.
