 Natasha: We’re yet to receive Certified True Copy of judgment – Senate


The Senate on Sunday acknowledged the court judgment on Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan but noted it was yet to receive the Certified True Copy, CTC, of the judgment.

The Chairman, Senate Committee on Media and Public Affairs, Senator Yemi Adaramodu, said this in a statement in Abuja.

He said the CTC of the judgment was necessary for a thorough review and informed determination of the next course of action.

He stated that pending receipt of the CTC, the senate would refrain from taking any step that might prejudice its legal position regarding Akpoti-Uduaghan’s suspension.

“The senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria acknowledges that judgment was delivered on July 4th by the Federal High Court, Abuja, in the suit instituted by Sen. Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan.

“However, the senate is yet to be served with the certified true copy (CTC) of the said judgment.

“Our legal representatives, who were in attendance at the proceedings, have confirmed that the complete judgment was not read in open court.

”Consequently, we have formally applied for the CTC to enable a thorough review and informed determination of the appropriate legal response, particularly in view of the uncertainty surrounding whether the court made any direct order nullifying the suspension of Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan.

“Since no party to the case has been officially served the enrolled order of the judgement, none can enforce any perceived order or relief.

“Pending receipt and examination of the CTC, and acting on the advice of counsel, the senate shall refrain from taking any step that may prejudice its legal position,” he said.

Adaramodu expressed the senate’s commitment to upholding the rule of law, stressing that it would act strictly in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria upon full clarification of the court’s pronouncements.

While urging the public to remain patient, he assured of senate’s fidelity to due process, as it awaits CTC of the court ruling to determine the next course of action.
