Former governor of Benue State, Gabriel Suswam, Monday
filed a suit at the state High Court to restrain his successor, Governor Samuel
Ortom, from probing his administration.
It was gathered that the counsel to the former governor,
Mr. Dave Iorhemba, filed Suswam’s suit, which contained about 10 motions
supported by affidavit.
Confirming the development to The Sun, a top official at
the High Court said the court actually received the writ and was immediately
sent to the Chief Judge’s office for assignment to a judge.
He said, “Yes, we have actually received the motion filed
by lawyers to Suswam seeking the court to issue an order stopping the probe of
his administration by the present government in the state and the file has been
forwarded to the chief judge for the purpose of assigning the case to a judge.”
