The African Democratic Congress (ADC) in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) on Friday filed a suit at the Federal High Court to prevent Senator Ireti Kingibe from presenting herself as a member of the party.
New Telegraph reports that the legal action follows the senator’s indefinite suspension by the Wuse Ward Executive Committee on Thursday, March 12.
The suit, which was filed by the party’s lawyer, Maxwell Opara, seeks a judicial declaration that the Wuse Ward Executive Committee has the authority to discipline and suspend party members within its jurisdiction.
The ADC also prayed that the court confirm that Kingibe’s suspension is still valid.
