An investigative committee set up by the management of the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory in Abuja has recommended the dismissal of three of the court’s officials and the demotion of thre

e others for fraud which they allegedly perpetrated in a suit seeking the removal of Senator Ifeanyi Ubah as the lawmaker representing Anambra South Senatorial District.

Ubah, who petitioned the management of the FCT High Court alleging fraud and forgery of documents used in the suit, had appealed against the judgment.However, in the report issued after investigating Ubah’s petition, the FCT High Court’s seven-man committee headed by the court’s Deputy Chief Registrar, Administration, Madugu Alhaji, stated that it found out that “the entire suit contracted in CV/3044/18 was a fraud and does not exist in FCT High Court record”.

The committee which sat from March 10 to 12, 2020, also stated, “The Honourable Chief Judge’s signature on the assignment directive was forged and dates on the receipt of payment, processes were all altered to October 2018 to make the purported suit filed September 25, 2019 look like a pre-election matter.

The committee, which concluded that that various allegations of gross misconduct were established against some of the members of staff, recommended for dismissal, the Court Registrar of Court 25, Kingsley Ebibrah, an officer in charge of processes, Michael Uche, and a revenue officer, Michael Felix.
