PROCEEDING FROM THE FEDERAL HIGH COURT (ABUJA DIVISION) ON STAY OF EXECUTION OF JUDGEMENT FILED BY DISTINGUISHED SENATOR PETER NWAOBOSHI

At the Abuja Division of the Federal High Court today, the trial judge Justice Ahmed.R. Mohammed accepted the oral application   to  transfer the motion for the stay of execution, in the case between Senator Peter Nwaoboshi and Ned Nwoko, to the court of Appeal.  The oral application was made by the counsel to senator Nwaoboshi. Like  Pontius Piliate, the judge washed his hands off the case because  he  has become Functus Officio.


To lay the term (FUNCTUS OFFICIO) bare for the consumption and understanding of the general public, it refers to an Officer whose mandate has expired due to an expiry date, or  an agency that  has accomplished the purpose for which it was created. When FUNCTUS OFFICIO is used in relation to the court of law, it means that the authority of the court on a case before it has expired and the court can no longer make an order on the  case.


Consequently, the Judge has ordered all the parties involved in the case to proceed to
 Appeal court since all records of proceedings on the case have been transmitted to the appellate court.

On the issue of who is the senator elect of Delta north, Senator Peter Nwaoboshi remains the authentic senator elect. The certificate of Return, duly issued to him by INEC is published below. We challenge anybody that has embarked on self delusion and wishful thinking to publish for public consumption his/her certificate of Return.

Distinguished Senator Peter Nwaoboshi reiterates his absolute faith in the Nigerian judicial system and urges thousands of his supporters not to fret as he is  deeply certain  of getting a deserved justice at the Appellate court in no distant time.
