A Federal High Court in Abuja will on Friday hear a suit seeking to restrain Goodluck Jonathan, the former president, from contesting the 2027 presidential election.
On April 28, Peter Lifu, the presiding judge, ordered that hearing notices be issued and served on the defendants, who were yet to file their responses.
The suit was filed by Johnmary Jideobi, a lawyer, who is asking the court to declare Jonathan constitutionally ineligible to seek the presidency again.
