Alleged contempt: Court to hear suit against Finance Minister, others on Monday | The Guardian Nigeria News - Nigeria and World News ⚠️

The ASMEDA filed the suit against the Minister of Finance, Mrs Zainab Ahmed, over alleged disregard to court order. Also joined in the motion on notice for committal for contempt of court marked: NICN/ABJ/145/2021 before Justice Osatohanmwen Obaseki-Osaghae of the National Industrial Court, Abuja, include the Chairman, National Salaries, Incomes and Wages Commission , Mr Ekpo Nta; and Account-General of the Federation , Alhaji Ahmed Idris.

But the claimants averred that from August 2021 till date, the defendants are yet to fully comply with the said order. “An order of the honourable court for committal of the named principal officers of the defendants for their disobedience jointly and severally to the interim restraining and mandatory orders of injunctions of this court made on 23rd July, 2021, and served on all the defendants on or about the 28th day of July, 2021.”

According to them, the 1st defendant has unilaterally threatened to direct the complete stoppage of payment of monthly salary of the claimants based on the CONMESS salary structure from the month of December 2021. The court held that the order of interim injunction would subsist pending the hearing and determination of the suit. Obaseki-Osaghae then adjourned the matter until Oct. 14, 2021 for hearing of the motion on notice but on the adjourned date, issues were joined by the parties.
