The Federal High Court in Abuja’s Justice Binta Fatima Nyako has prohibited parties to the lawsuit brought by suspended Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan against Senate President Godswill Akpabio and three other individuals from speaking to the media about case-related topics.

Following the lawyer’s allegation to Akpabio, Kehinde Ogunwumiju (SAN), that the plaintiff was relocating from television house to television house while providing press interviews on matters about her case, which is still ongoing in court, the judge issued the order on Friday.
