Gov Ikpeazu Taxation Case The Supreme Court Real Ruling

The Supreme Court today in the lead ruling by Justice M. S Muntaka-Coomassie reads:

"...finally my lords, I hold that the lower court, with respect, misapplied the well considered decision of this court in Kakih v. PDP (supra) and came to a wrong decision by setting aside the judgment of he trial federal high court.

This appeal therefore succeeds and it is allowed.

The matter is hereby remitted back to the federal high court for trail forthwith. No. Order as to costs."

Here, the Supreme Court simply ruled that the High Court should hear the tax suit.

This which the tax evasion case against Okezie Ikpeazu, will be reopened at Umuahia High court. Not that Ikpeazu is kicked out. Although if found guilty that will be his case.
