The High Court of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) in Abuja has declined to vacate an order which restricted the #endbadgovernance protesters in the FCT to Moshood Abiola Stadium known as National Stadium for the purpose of staging a protest.
Instead, the vacation judge Justice Sylvanus Oriji on Wednesday opted to return the case file to the Chief Judge of the High Court for re-assignment to another judge for hearing.
The suit was instituted by the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike against the #Endbadgovernace led by Omoyele Sowore and others.
During the proceedings, Justice Oriji requested explanations from counsel to the FCT minister, George Ibrahim whether the suit still has life in view of the fact that the August 1st to 10th protest had come and gone.
The counsel in his explanation drew the attention of the Judge to a letter written to the FCT minister by the protesters where they asserted that the protest might last longer than August 10.
