File: Human rights lawyer, Femi Falana
Human rights lawyer Femi Falana has threatened to challenge the Federal Government in court over its handover of newly built luxury houses to judges in Abuja’s Katampe district.
He said the gesture was discriminatory and illegal, warning that legal action against it was imminent.
Falana spoke in a video shared by NewsCentral on Thursday, faulting the Federal Government for extending exclusive housing benefits to judges while other categories of public servants were left out.
He said he was disturbed after watching television coverage of the handover ceremony, adding that he could not place the exercise under any known law.
