The
controversy over a Federal High Court judgement sacking ten members of the
national assembly from Katsina state is still generating controversy.
Justice Gladys Olotu of a Federal
High Court in Abuja had directed the Independent National Electoral
Commission to withdraw the Certificate of Return recently issued to ten
lawmakers in obedience to a Supreme Court Judgement in December, 2012.
The ten affected lawmakers,
led by Senator Serika Hadi, have raised concern over what they described as the
current plans to discredit the Judiciary.
Speaking at a media parley
in Abuja, the lawmakers particularly faulted the judgement of Justice Gladys Olotu,
saying it has violated all principles judicial hierarchy in the country.
They described the
Judgement of Justice Olotu has a direct confrontation with the Judgement
delivered by the Supreme Court.
