Enugu State Governor Peter Mbah has prayed a Federal High Court, Abuja to dismiss the preliminary objection filed by the National Youth Service Corp, NYSC, against his 20 billion naira suit over alleged certificate forgery.
Mbah’s counsel, Christopher Oshomegie, urged Justice Inyang Ekwo to dismiss the objection on the grounds that sections cited in the NYSC Act were not applicable in the instant suit. Earlier, counsel for the NYSC, Aminu Sadauki, told the court that the matter was fixed for hearing of their objection, adding that Mbah contravened the NYSC Act in the institution of the suit.
According to the counsel, the Enugu State governor did not appeal to the President before instituting the suit against them and urged the court to strike out the suit.
