Godwin Emefiele, the governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, has filed a lawsuit against the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, and the Attorney General of the Federation (AGF) before a Federal High Court in Abuja, seeking enforcement of his right to contest the 2023 Presidential election without resigning from his current position.
In the suit with No FHC/ABJ/CS/610/2022 instituted on his behalf by a Constitutional lawyer, Mike Ozekhome, SAN, the CBN governor argued that he would suffer irreparable damage if he is not allowed to contest in the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential primary election slated to hold on 30th of May and 1st of June, 2022.
The case has been fixed for hearing today, Monday.
