Court fines Keyamo N10 million for filing a frivolous suit against Atiku
A Federal High Court, Abuja, on Monday, June 5, 2023, awarded a N10 million fine against Mr Festus Keyamo, the immediate-past Minister of State for Labour and Employment for filing a frivolous suit against Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate in the Feb. 25 election.
In a ruling, Justice James Omotosho, awarded a N5 million fine each in favour of Abubakar and the Independent Corrupt Practices and other related offences Commission (ICPC) totalling a N10 million against Keyamo.
Justice Omotosho, who described the suit as “frivolous, vex@tious and ab¥se of court processes,” directed that the fine should be paid “at 10 per cent per annum until the cost is finally liquidated.”
The order followed an oral application by counsel for Atiku, Benson Igbanoi, and that of the ICPC, Oluwakemi Odogun, asking for cost after the matter was dismissed.
