The feminist groups argued that the failure of the Federal Government to implement the 35 per cent Affirmative Action Policy was a gross violation of the 1999 Constitution , the National Gender Policy 2006, and the relevant articles of the African Charter on Human and Peoples Rights. They also claimed that the predominant appointment of men into key positions in the country was unconstitutional.

When the matter came up on Wednesday before Justice Donatus Okorowo, the lawyer to the plaintiffs, Marshal Abubakar, sought leave to regularise his processes.
