Enugu Governor-Elect: court asked NYSC not to deny issuing a certificate to the Enugu governor-elect
The Federal High Court, Abuja, has asked the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) not to publish a disclaimer against Enugu governor-elect, Mr Peter Mbah.
Specifically, the court asked NYSC not to deny issuing a certificate to the Enugu governor-elect
NYSC had issued the certificate to Mr Peter Mbah dated January 6, 2003.
Justice Inyang Ekwo issued the restraining order while ruling on an expert motion filed by Mr Mbah
Mr Mbah told the court that he returned to Nigeria after graduating in Law from the University of East London in 2000.
He explained that as a prerequisite to practise as a barrister and solicitor of the Supreme Court of Nigeria, he applied and was admitted into the Bar Part I programme of the Nigerian Law School.
Mr Mbah said upon completing the Bar Part 1 Exam, he had to wait for the Bar Part 2 programme,
He said, he was advised that instead of spending time idling around, he should proceed to the mandatory one year National Youth Service Corps programme.
The plaintiff said he was called up for the NYSC and was deployed initially to Nigerian Ports Authority Apapa Quays for his primary assignment but was rejected by NPA, before securing the law firm of Ude & Associates.
The plaintiff in the course of his service year and after six months of NYSC, applied and was admitted approval to defer the NYSC in other to enable him complete the Bar final exam.
“Thereafter, the plaintiff was re mobilized to finish the NYSC programme, which he did complete”.
Mr Mbah averred that upon completion of the NYSC service, he was issued the certificate of National Service on January, 2003.
As a result, justice Ekwo after granting the restraining order also ordered the applicant to serve the defendants with court processes within two days of the order.
