A Federal High Court in Kano has denied a request to prevent the Kano State Public Complaints and Anti-Corruption Commission from investigating the Dala Inland Dry Port project.
The case was initiated by Hassan Bello, Abubakar Bawuro Sahabo, and Adamu Aliyu Sanda, who sought a court order to restrain the commission and the state attorney general from taking any action against them until their case regarding fundamental rights is resolved.
Justice Simon Amobeda, who presided over the case, rejected the ex parte application and instructed that the respondents — the anti-corruption agency and the state attorney general — be notified to appear and justify why the request should be granted.
The judge also ordered that court documents be properly served to the respondents before the next hearing date. The case has been adjourned until October 28, 2025.
