Post created on 9:50 am

Justice Godwin Briki-Okolosi of the Delta State High Court has adjourned the case seeking the disqualification of Prince Tsola Emiko from ascending the Olu of Warri stool to October 12.

Prince Oyowoli Emiko filed the suit.

Justice Briki-Okolosi yesterday granted all 15 applications seeking to join the suit. He ordered all parties to convert their originating processes to pleadings by way of statement of claims in view of an application filed by a defendant that the issue at stake challenges the origin of the first defendant (Tsola Emiko) and cannot be determined by originating summons.

He ordered a time limit for all parties to file their processes and struck out all applications overtaken by the ruling.
