FG to appeal N20bn damages against DSS – Malami
The Federal Government will appeal the judgment of an Oyo State High Court which awarded N20 billion in damages against the Attorney-General of the Federation and the Department of State Service.
The ruling was delivered by Justice Ladiran Akintola, who described the DSS action as “arbitrary aggression and prejudices” against Igboho.
Akintola said the N20 billion will serve as exemplary and aggravated damages.
However, the AGF, Mr Abubakar Malami (SAN), announced that the judgment will be appealed in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria in Abuja on Friday.
According to NAN, Malami stated that “efforts are already being made to begin the process of appealing the judgment.”
