Supreme court dismisses suit challenging establishment of EFCC act
The Supreme Court has dismissed the suit filed by some state Attorneys General challenging the establishment of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) Act.
The suit, which was initially instituted by the Attorneys General of 16 states, asked the apex court to scrap the anti-graft agency. While some states withdrew from the suit, some others asked to be joined as co-plaintiffs.
The states that initiated the suit include Ondo, Edo, Oyo, Ogun, Nassarawa, Kebbi, Katsina, Sokoto, Jigawa, Enugu, Benue, Anambra, Plateau, Cross-River and Niger.
However, at the resumed hearing on October 22, Imo, Bauchi, and Osun states joined the suit as co-plaintiffs while Anambra, Ebonyi, and Adamawa states announced their decisions to withdraw their suits.
The trio’s suits were struck out, accordingly, by the apex court.
