Supreme Court Strikes Out Magnus Abe’s Suit On Rivers State APC Primaries

The Supreme Court has struck out the suit filed by Senator Magnus Abe
on the primaries of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers
State.
In a unanimous judgment read on Monday by the Acting Chief Justice of
Nigeria (CJN) Ibrahim Mohammed, the apex court dismissed the
application on the ground that it lacks merit.
The court also noted that the suit is incompetent and a gross
violation of order 2 rule 8 of the supreme court rules. It held that
once a notice of appeal has been found defective, it cannot be amended.
