A suit filed by a group consisting of 15 Senior Advocates of Nigeria, SANs, challenging the selection of 21 out of 31 persons chosen by President Muhammadu Buhari for appointment as judges in the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory was on Wednesday dismissed by a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja.
Justice Okon Abang, in his judgment, held that the plaintiff lacked locus standi to institute the case in view of the fact that they have not shown any special interest as to confer on them the locus to commence the suit against the respective parties.
