Judiciary

THE Court of Appeal, Abuja, has dismissed an appeal filed by a former Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party, Olisa Metuh, for the release of his travelling documents.

The court said the appeal constituted an abuse of court process having not disclosed verifiable medical reasons for seeking to travel abroad for treatment.

The appellate court agreed with the ruling of a Federal High Court which had earlier declined his request. – Punch
