A High Court sitting in Lagos state has dismissed a suit by former Lagos State Governor, Mr Akinwunmi Ambode, seeking an injunction to restrain the State House of Assembly from probing him.

The former governor had asked the court for an order to stop his probe by the lawmakers over the purchase of 820 buses.

Ruling on the application on Thursday, Justice Yetunde Adesanya held it is not within the court’s jurisdiction to stop the lawmakers from going ahead with the probe.
