Having lost at the Federal High Court and the Court of Appeal both in Abuja on the same grounds, that his case lacked enough merit for the court to look into it.

 

The apex court, on Thursday, also threw away the suit, stating that it was statute barred, having no life to support it and legs to stand upon, according to The News Agency of Nigeria.

 

The presiding judge, Justice Inyang Okoro, amongst other four members of Justices of the Court, dismissed the appeal after the former Minister withdrew his case when informed that the case was filed outside the time prescribed by law.
