Justice Inyang Ekwo of the Federal High Court, Abuja, on Tuesday, dismissed a suit seeking the prosecution of the Labour Party presidential candidate in the last general election, Mr. Peter Obi, for non-declaration of assets.
A human rights activist, Olukoya Ogungbeje, had in a suit marked: FHC/ABJ/CS/44/23 asked the Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB) to investigate and prosecute Obi for breach of the constitutional provisions on asset declaration.
In the motion on notice dated July 3 but filed on November 6 by the applicant, he sought an order of mandamus compelling the CCB to investigate and prosecute the former Anambra State governor at the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) on the same matter.
