Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan
Akpoti-Uduaghan can’t enforce judgment she appealed – Legal expert
A senior lawyer, Ken Harries has faulted suspended Kogi Central Senator, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan for attempting to enforce judgment of a Federal High Court in Abuja, which she also appealed.
Harries stated this while reacting to Akpoti-Uduaghan’s alleged invasion of the National Assembly on Tuesday, claiming to enforce judgment of the Federal High Court, which she said ordered her recall.
Harries wondered if taking the laws into one’s hands, as shown by Akpoti-Uduaghan’s conduct, was the right way to enforce a judgment.
” How do you invade the national assembly, claiming to want to enforce a judgment.
“There are procedures for judgment enforcement. It is not for an individual to take the law into his or her own hands, or create crisis on excuse of wanting to enforce a judgment,” Harries stated.
He recalled that Akpoti-Uduaghan filed an appeal against the judgment about a week ago, faulting the judgment and praying the Court of Appeal to set it aside.
Harries, who queried the rationale behind Akpoti-Uduaghan’s decision to invade the senate, sought to know what judgment she was seeking to enforce.
“How do you enforce a judgment that you have said you are not satisfied with, condemned, appealed and prayed the Court of Appeal to reverse?
