According to reports from Vanguard News, the court, presided over by Justice Inyang Ekwo, postponed the case to October 3rd, following an application by the defendant’s counsel, Prince Lateef Fagbemi, SAN. The suit, filed by El-Rufai against the AGF and others, alleges a violation of his fundamental rights during a search of his residence in Abuja in February. In a related report from Premium Times Nigeria, El-Rufai’s suit seeks a declaration that the search was unlawful, as well as N1 billion in damages. This development comes amid ongoing political and legal tussles between El-Rufai and various government agencies. As the case unfolds, Nigerians will be closely watching to see how the courts handle this matter.
