The Hon. Justice Rakiya Haastrup of the Abuja Judicial Division of the National Industrial Court of Nigeria has rejected the interlocutory injunction brought before it to halt the process for the appointment of a new Accountant General of the Federation until the main case is determined.
The Court on Wednesday, averred that many issues in the application will be decided in line with the substantive case, hence, it is unnecessary to stop the process.
Meanwhile, Joshua Kadmi Luka, who is the claimant in the case represented in court by his attorney, Ibrahim Angulu, SAN, called for an accelerated hearing because of the importance of the matter and its timing.
Justice Haastrup, however, adjourned the case until March 25, 2025, for the continuation of the hearing on the matter.
