A Federal High Court in Abuja has issued a gag order, prohibiting parties involved in the lawsuit filed by suspended Sen. Natasha Akpoti-uduaghan against Senate President Godswill Akpabio and three others from granting press interviews related to the case.

Justice Binta Nyako issued the order on Friday following a complaint by lawyer to Akpabio, Mr. Kehinde Ogunwumiju (SAN) that the plaintiff was moving from one television house to another, granting press interviews on issues relating to her case, currently pending before the court.

The judge, in her ruling, held that there shall be no press interviews by all parties and their lawyers as regards the subject matter of the case.

She further prohibited parties and their lawyers from live-streaming court proceedings related to the case on social media platforms.
