A Kogi State High Court sitting in Lokoja has struck out a motion seeking to stop the provision of more evidence before it by the plaintiff in the case

between a private company, Ce triple F global services limited against the Kogi State House of Assembly over failure of the latter to pay N15,780, 920 debt.

It could be recalled that the complainant who is the Chief Executive Officer of Ce triple F Global Services Limited, Engr. Chris Edime, had told the court that the items were supplied to the Assembly when Alfa Umar Imam was the Speaker of the House, while the current Speaker, Prince Mathew Kolawole was the Majority Leader and the current Majority Leader, Abdullahi Bello was the Minority Leader.

“But surprisingly, we raised an invoice for it to be paid, up till now, nothing has been done. There was a time we were told to write letter to the Clerk of the House in which we did on several occasions. But nothing has been done up till this moment that is why we have taken the matter to court,” Edime told the Court in October 2021.

At the resumed hearing of the case, with suit number HLC/107/2020 before Hon. Justice J.J Mejebi, Counsel to the Assembly filed a statement that the job awarded to the company was not done.
