The Federal High Court, Abuja has dismissed a suit by a former Minister of State for Education, Chukwuemeka Nwajiuba, and the incorporated trustees of Rights for all International (RAI) against the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate Bola Tinubu and his Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) counterpart, IgbereTV reports
Delivering judgment on Thursday, Justice Inyang Ekwo declined jurisdiction on the grounds that the plaintiffs lacked the legal right to have filed the suit.
Justice Ekwo, who also described the suit as incompetent and proceeded to dismiss it, condemned the involvement of RAI, which claimed to be a non-government organisation, in politically motivated cases.
The Judge held that, by its involvement in politically motivated cases and by extension, partisan politics, RAI went outside the objectives for which it was registered under part of the Companies and Allied Matters Act (CAMA) by the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) and taken steps inimical to public policy.
Justice Ekwo proceeded to dissolve RAI and ordered the CAC to take over the dissolved group and deal with it in accordance with the provisions of the law
