A civil society group known as the Kingdom
Human Rights Foundation International, has
filed a lawsuit against members of the
Federal Executive Council, asking the court to
compel the FEC members to declare ailing
President Muhammadu Buhari unfit to
continue to hold office and another order
that will mandate the National Assembly to
constitute a medical panel to ascertain his
fitness.
In the suit marked FHC/ABJ/CS/671/2017,
the group named Acting President Yemi
Osinbajo, the Executive Council of the
Federation (otherwise known as the Federal
Executive Council), the Attorney-General of
the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mr.
Abubakar Malami (SAN), and the National
Assembly as respondents.
No date has been fixed for hearing neither
has any judge been assigned to the case.
Recall that Mr Toyin Dawodu, a Nigerian
based in the US, had in June filed a lawsuit
in which he asked the court to compel
Saraki to constitute a medical panel that will
ascertain the true state of President Buhari’s
health.
