Officials of the Court of Appeal and lawyers to Governor Abba Yusuf of Kano State, on Wednesday, clashed over the contradictory Certified True Copy (CTC) of the judgment sacking the governor from office.

Governor Yusuf’s lawyers filed a fresh notice of appeal before the Court of Appeal in Abuja, seeking to uphold only the aspect of the judgment which is in their favour and overturn parts that are not.

However, the staff of the Court of Appeal refused service of the processes at the court, forcing the legal team to proceed to the Kano Division of the court, where the same was accepted with revenue collector’s receipt number 13164334.

Meanwhile, officials of the Court of Appeal sent letters to counsel to parties in the matter to return the CTCs for correction, which Governor Yusuf’s lawyers also refused service.

Recall that a three-member panel led by Justice Moore Adumein had on Friday reaffirmed Governor Abba Yusuf’s removal from office over alleged non-qualification like not being a member of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP).
