The court ruled that it lacked jurisdiction to entertain the suit, adding that the suit lacked merit and was based on speculation.
The court also held that Imansuangbon failed to exhaust internal dispute resolution mechanisms within the Labour Party before seeking legal redress, hence his action robbed the Court of jurisdiction.
The Court further said that Imansuangbon’s claim of Akpata not signing the Indemnity Form was statute-barred and, therefore, it lacked jurisdiction to entertain such suit.
