Deregistration of ADC, Others: Group Calls on NJC to Probe, Sanction Justice Lifu over Alleged Disregard of Appellate Court’s Order
Alex Enumah in Abuja
The National Judicial Council (NJC) has been called upon to investigate Justice Peter Lifu over his delivery of a judgment in a matter that the Court of Appeal has been seized of.
The call is predicated on the negative impact of such alleged disregard of hierarchy of court on the judiciary and democracy as the nation approaches the 2027 general election.
Justice Lifu had on Monday ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to deregister five political parties, over their alleged breach of Section 225(A) of the Constitution.
