The Federal High Court in Lagos on Tuesday adjourned hearing in a fundamental rights enforcement suit filed by a former Minister of Aviation, Senator Stella Oduah, till December 1.
The case was stalled due to the absence of her lawyer Ajibola Oluyede, who was said to be handling another case at the Court of Appeal.
Oduah sued the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), the Independent Corrupt Practices and other related offences Commission (ICPC), the Attorney General of the Federation and the Inspector-General of Police.
Justice Mohammed Yunusa had, on August 26, restrained them from questioning or arresting the ex-minister over the purchase of two bulletproof vehicles until her suit is determined.
The vehicles, bought under her watch as aviation minister, were said to have cost N255million, sparking a national outrage.

This is part evil things imposed on the country by PDP. What prompted this Soyoyo woman to buy two bulletproof vehicles except impunity rampart under the wasteful rule of President Joonatan? It is a pity some of our nationals quickly forget their family background whenever they find themselves in positions that they never dream off in life.
ReplyDeleteIn a country where State governors are reluctant to pay N18000 as minimum wage to poor Civil Servants, you find a make-up lady wasting N255million on two bulletproof vehicles. What a heartless and extravagant life?
You will definitely have your day in court, fortunately.
ReplyDeleteWhen you pay double the retail price, and the supplier returns you the overpayment, that is a Scam. Stella lost her job over this. she is currently building a 200 room hotel.
ReplyDeleteNigerian eye, should investigate this, its in the public interest.
And the Igbos are still crying marginalization with all what their kins men and women had amassed under the PDP government?
DeleteNothing igbo in the top list of Nigeria's biggest looters. Have you seen it? Is any of them being punished? If she was fulani this would have been closed as a case.
