Sanusi’s suit withdrawal: We don’t trust Sanusi’s step – says FG

SANUSI vs JONATHAN


The Federal Government on Friday expressed doubt over the withdrawal of the suit filed by the new Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, challenging his suspension as the Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria on February 20.



The FG expressed the doubt at the National Industrial Court, when its counsel, Chief Mike Ozekhome (SAN), told the court that although he was not opposing Sanusi’s notice of discontinuance, the government was not sure of the former CBN governor’s next move.


He added that he was not willing to withdraw his pending motion for stay of execution of the judgement by Justice Gabriel Kolawole of the Federal High Court, Abuja, who had made an order transferring Sanusi’s suit to the National Industrial Court.


Ozekhome said the government was not sure of the next move by Sanusi, as the former CBN governor had yet to withdraw his appeal against the judgement of the Federal High Court.
