Justice Yetunde Adesanya of the Lagos State High Court on Wednesday ordered the state House of Assembly to maintain status quo in the ongoing investigation of the immediate past governor of the state, Akinwunmi Ambode.
Justice Adesanya gave the order on while ruling on an exparte motion filed by Ambode through his counsel, Tayo Oyetibo(SAN).
The court had on Tuesday ordered Oyetibo to put the respondents on notice before hearing the exparte application.
This is contrary to earlier reports in the media which states that the court had ordered the respondents to appear in court on Wednesday.
The respondents are the Speaker of the Assembly, Mudashiru Obasa; Clerk of the House, Mr A.A. Sanni; Chairman of the Adhoc Committee set up by the Assembly to probe the former governor, Fatai Mojeed and members of the committee.
