Kano state high court judge adjourned the Kano Emirship judgement until June 24

0 321

The hearing in a suit on the Emirship tussle at the Kano state high court was stalled on Tuesday by the failure of lawyers to serve court processes on the respondents.

At the court session, the applicants’ lawyers said they could not serve papers on Aminu Ado-Bayero, the 15th Emir of Kano, and four other respondents.

Abdulsalam Saleh, counsel to the inspector-general of police (IGP), told the court that attempts to serve the first to the fifth respondent with the court processes failed.

The presiding judge, Amina Adamu-Aliyu, said the court order prohibiting the arrest of the respondents is not enough to prevent the service of documents on them.

The judge adjourned the matter until June 24 to hear the motion on notice.
