The Chairman of Innoson Motors, Innocent Chukwuma, on Friday, withdrew a fundamental right enforcement suit filed against the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and five other respondents.
Other respondents in the ex-parte application suit marked FHC/L/CS/1962/17, are: Federal Government, Attorney-General of the Federation (AGF), Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Nigeria Police Force, and Guaranty Trust Bank (GTB).
At Friday’s proceedings, Innoson’s lawyer, Professor MacCharty Mbaduagha, told the court of his clients’ intention to withdraw the suit, due to the filing of a counter by the sixth respondent, Guaranty Trust Bank.
In response, GTB lawyer, Adebowale Kamoru, said they are not opposing the withdrawal of the suit.
He, however, stated that they will await the applicant’s investigation how his clients got to know about the suit.
Ruling on the application, the presiding judge, Justice Hadizat Rabiu-Shagari, granted Innoson’s request.
