Ministerial screening: Taraba Nominee debunks 10 year ban by Supreme Court

***As Akpabio insists Senate will study the case

The screening of the nominee from Taraba a former deputy Governor of the state, Abubakar Sani Danladi has debunked any Supreme Court Judgement that barred him from holding any position for 10 years.
“There was nothing in the Appeal Court, they just struck out the case for lack of merit.
“At the Supreme Court, the same thing happened as Mrs Odili said that the Federal High Court Jalingo was wrong to have passed the judgement in that manner because when I was a deputy Governor in 2007, they used their executive power at that time to nullify me.
“So from Supreme Court, I had to go back to the Federal High Court Jalingo since the Supreme Court said there was no bases for the Federal High Court Jalingo to have give that judgement.
“Then the same Federal High Court in Jalingo sat on the same judgement and set aside that judgement that was hanging on me.”
At that point the senate President Godswill Akpabio cut in and interrogated the nominee,
“The Federal High Court Jalingo gave a judgement against you that you were not qualified to contest on the bases of perjury that you lied on oath in respect of your date of birth, then later the Federal High Court sat on the same matter and cleared you?
“What we are saying is that the moment the Federal High Court gave the first judgement they become Fontus Officio in Law and can no longer sit as appellate Court over its own judgement, so you will definitely say what you want to say we will study this because it is in the interest of Nigeria and it is of Public interest.

“We will give him chance to finish, as soon as he finishes he can take a bow.

Not done the nominee continued saying that Senator Shaibu Lau took the case to Federal High Court Abuja on the same matter.
“”The Federal High Court gave me the judgement and he now went to the appeal Court, it affirmed the judgement of the Federal High Court.
“He now went to the Supreme Court the court gave me the judgement so there was no any judgement from Supreme Court, as I am talking, the Supreme Court is hearing me, there was no any judgement from Supreme Court barring me from taking any position.”
