“Please note that the earlier Order of the FCT High Court, suspending Comrade Adams Oshiomhole from office on March 4th, 2020 was affirmed by the Court of Appeal, Abuja on June 16th, 2020.
“Mr. Oshiomhole’s appeals were dismissed in that date. Copies of the orders of the Court in the two cases are herewith attached for your perusal,” he said.
