The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, has said that he is not aware of an order of mandamus granted by a court for the National Assembly to begin impeachment process against President Muhammadu Buhari.
Mohammed said this on Wednesday while answering questions from State House correspondents at the end of the weekly meeting of the Federal Executive Council at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
“I’m just hearing it from you. I will have to read it myself,” the minister said.
A Federal High Court sitting in Osogbo, Osun state, presided over by Justice Maureen Onyetenu, had on Wednesday ordered the National Assembly to commence the process for Buhari’s impeachment while ruling on a motion filed before her by the Chairman, Nigeria Bar Association, Ilesa branch, Mr. Kanmi Ajibola; and a human rights activist, Mr. Suleiman Adeniyi.
