Appeal Court delays ruling in Agba-Agada case amid Benue APC crisis.

The court of Appel , Makurdi Division, has heard the appeal brought by Hon. Moses Agaba challenging the decision of the High Court to set aside the interim order restraining Comrade Austin Agada as the Benue State Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC.

Hon. Agaba’s Counsel argued that the Chief Judge of the lower court was wrong to retrieve the case file from another judge and set aside the interim order, as it amounted to the Chief Judge sitting on appeal over the decision of a judge of coordinate jurisdiction.

On the other hand, Counsel to Austin Agada contended that the lower court was correct in setting aside the interim injunction as it had already elapsed. The Court of Appeal reserved judgment in this case to be communicated to the parties at a later date.

Additionally, the Court of Appeal heard another appeal challenging the ruling and judgment of the National Industrial Court of Nigeria, Makurdi Division, regarding the suit filed by 23 former Local Government Council Chairmen in Benue State who were elected under the platform of the PDP. Counsel to the Appellants argued that the lower court lacked jurisdiction to hear the suit as it was not an industrial issue.

The Court of Appeal also reserved judgment in this case, and the parties will be informed of the judgment at a later date.
