Suspended
CBN Governor, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi has suffered a setback in his bid to re-gain
his position.
Sanusi
had approached a Federal High Court Abuja on Monday, contesting his suspension
from office as Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria.
Considering
the suit today, the Court dismissed an ex-parte motion that sought for his
immediate reinstatement. In a ruling, Justice
Gabriel Kolawole, said it would not be in the interest of justice for him to
grant such application without hearing from the defendants.
Justice Kolawole therefore directed Mallam Sanusi to serve the relevant court processes on President Jonathan, the Attorney General of the Federation and the Inspector General of Police, who were all listed as defendants in his suit. He subsequently adjourned to March 12 for hearing.
