    The National Judicial Council (NJC) has distance itself from the appointment of an acting Chief Judge for Imo State.

    The body, in a statement, emphasized that it neither gave approval to Governor Hope Uzodinma to appoint an acting CJ for the state nor was involved in the process that produced Justice Theophilus Nnamdi Nzeukwu, who is the fourth most senior judge as the Acting Chief Judge.

    NJC’s Deputy Director, Information, Kemi Babalola Ogedengbe, who issued the statement on Friday, explained that the NJC was yet to look into the issue of the appointment of an acting CJ for Imo State.

    “The attention of the Council has been drawn to the news making rounds that the Governor of Imo State, Senator Hope Uzodimma, had purportedly appointed Hon. Justice Theophilus Nnamdi Nzeukwu, who is No. 4 in the hierarchy of Judges seniority in Imo State High Court, as the acting Chief Judge of the State, in view of the recent disciplinary action taken against the erstwhile Chief Judge of the state.

    “The National Judicial Council by this press release wants to clarify to the public that the Governor of Imo State had earlier written to the Council requesting for its approval to appoint Hon. Justice Theophilus Nnamdi Nzeukwu, who is No. 4 in the hierarchy of seniority as acting Chief Judge of the state.

    “The governor in his said correspondence to the Council, gave reasons why in his own view, the three most senior Judges are not appointable.

    “The Council is informing the public that the said letter is yet to be considered, as deliberation on the request is slated for the next Council meeting, which is scheduled to hold on April 29 and 30, 2025.

    “The Council is therefore, by this press release, informing the public that:

    (i) The governor’s request is yet to be considered by the Council.

    (ii) The Council has not given approval to the governor for the appointment of the Acting Chief Judge.

    (iii) The Council is not a party to the process of the purported appointment of Hon. Justice Theophilus Nnamdi Nzeukwu as the Acting Chief Judge,” the statement read.

    A Federal High Court in Abuja has restrained the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, suspended Kogi Senator, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, and three others from speaking with the media on issues relating to the suspension issued Akpoti-Uduaghan filed before the court.

    The restraining order, issued on Friday by Justice Binta Nyako, was sequel to a complaint by Akpabio’s lawyer, Mr Kehinde Ogunwumiju (SAN).

    The senior lawyer at Friday’s proceedings had accused Akpoti-Uduaghan of going from one television house to another, granting press interviews on issues relating to her case, currently pending before the court.

    Ogunwumiju added that the Kogi Central Senator has also been to the BBC and CNN to speak on the issue.

    Reacting, Justice Nyako ordered that there shall be no press interviews by all parties and their lawyers as regard the subject matter of the case.

    While observing that the case was sub-judice, she further barred parties and their lawyers from engaging in streaming of proceedings in the case on social media.

    At the commencement of proceedings on Friday, the plaintiff’s lawyer, Jibril Okutepa (SAN), told the court that the case was coming up first, having been transferred from another court, presided over by Justice Obiora Egwuatu.

    He informed the court that parties have filed and exchanged all relevant documents, except one and prayed the court to grant a consolidated hearing of all pending applications along with the substantive suit.

    According to the senior lawyer, time was of the essence because his client’s suspension was for a limited period, adding that Akpoti-Uduaghan was desirous of expeditious determination of the case.

    Responding, the Clerk of the National Assembly represented by Mr Charles Iyiola as well as Paul Daudu (SAN), who represented the Senate, did not object to Okutepa’s application that the substantive case should be heard with the objections raised by the defendants.

    However, the application was opposed by Ogunwumiju and Umeh Kalu (SAN), representing the Chairman, Senate Committee on Ethics, Privileges and Code of Conduct, Senator Neda Imasuem.

    In a short ruling, Justice Nyako granted the application and held that the court would hear all pending applications, including preliminary objections along with the substantive suit.

    The judge subsequently adjourned till May 12 for hearing.

    Listed as defendants in the suit marked FHC/ABJ/CS/384/2025 are the Clerk of the National Assembly, the Senate, the President of the Senate and Senator Imasuem (Chairman, Senate Committee on Ethics, Privileges and Code of Conduct).

    Akpoti-Uduaghan had approached the court to challenge her investigation and subsequent suspension for six months over alleged misconduct.

    Amongst others, the plaintiff claimed that she was not given fair hearing before her suspension by the Senate.
