The substituted service of a suit seeking the duo’s disqualification was ordered on Monday, August 11, 2020.
‘The PUNCH’ reports that Justice Taiwo Taiwo, granting the plaintiffs’ application for substituted service, ordered that Ize-Iyamu and Ganiyu be served with the suit by pasting the court documents and the hearing notice for next sitting at the residences of the duo in Benin, the Edo State capital.
Justice Taiwo Taiwo adjourned the proceedings till August 24.
The plaintiffs are also APC members, Momoh Abdul-Razak and Zibiri Muhizu, who asked the court to disqualify their party’s candidates.
