COURT STRIKES OUT SUIT AGAINST #ENDBADGOVERNANCE PROTESTERS.
The Federal High Court Sitting in Abuja has struck out a suit instituted against the #Endbadgovernance protesters, the Attorney General of the Federation (AGF), the Inspector General of Police (IGP), the Department Of State Services (DSS), and the Chiefs of Army and Defence Staff.
The suit filed by 17 Nigerians against the last nationwide protests was dismissed by the court for want of diligent prosecution.
Justice Peter Lifu terminated the suit on Thursday following the absence of the 17 plaintiffs and 26 defendants in court and without legal representation from the two parties.
Although the suit was fixed for hearing, the judge expressed shock that none of the 17 plaintiffs showed up nor were they represented by any legal practitioner.
