Consequently, the court quashed the interim investigation report because the applicant was not invited.“It is our understanding that the Honourable Court presided by Justice O.A. Egwuata did not stop the Commission from further investigating the case and or submitting a report after hearing from the Applicant. “Consequently, the Commission has two options for consideration: Firstly, to appeal the judgment as there are numerous grounds of appeal. “Secondly, continue with the investigation since the case has been decided and invite the Emir in compliance with the Court ruling. “The Commission is exploring suitable options available at its disposal as the matter is still under investigation,” the commission chairman disclosed. |
