BFIGroup, the preferred bidder approved by the Supreme Court for the Aluminum Smelter Company of Nigeria has rejected the stay-of-execution of the committal order against the Director-General of the Bureau of Public Enterprises , Alex Okoh, for contempt and disobedience of the court.
“Our objection is based on the fact that Justice Adah was the original jurist who ruled on 23 November 2005 that our original claim for the purchase of ALSCON was invalid, and was subsequently dismissed by him. “The appeal of the enforcement judgment was initially scheduled to be heard by a panel led by Justice Abubakar Datti Yahaya.
“Finally, we note how Justice Adah granted the applicant’s request for a stay of execution of the ruling/committal order of Justice A.I. Chikere without having reviewed the actual Order of the court, nor giving the respondent any opportunity to respond thereto. The committal order for Mr Okoh’s imprisonment for a minimum of 30 days was issued by Justice Anwuri Chikere of the Federal High Court, Abuja for the serial disobedience of the Supreme Court order by BPE on the ownership controversy of the ALSCON.
