Justice Inyang Ekwo of the Federal High Court, Abuja, on Wednesday, dismissed the fundamental rights enforcement suit filed by the Africa Regional Manager of Binance Holdings Limited, Nadeem Anjarwalla (on the run), against the National Security Adviser and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.
Justice Ekwo, in a short ruling, dismissed the suit for lack of diligent prosecution. The judge said on March 28, which was the date of the previous sitting in the matter, Anjarwalla’s counsel, Tonye Krukrubo (SAN), had sought leave to withdraw his appearance in the matter and the application was granted. He said the matter was adjourned until Wednesday for mention, but no lawyer appeared for the applicant.
