The leadership crisis within Association of Senior Civil Servants of Nigeria (ASCSN) came to an end, when the Honourable Justice D. E. Osiagor of the Lagos High Court ordered Bola-Audu Innocent and his cohorts to vacate the National Secretariat of ASCSN in Lagos immediately or face the wrath of the law.
Even as the Court restored Comrade Tommy Etim Okon PhD and Comrade Alade Bashir Lawal, the National President and the Secretary-General of the Union respectively as the authentic and legal signatories to the bank accounts of the Association.
In a judgment handed down on Wednesday 26 October 2022, Justice Osiagor ruled that it is an abuse of court process for Bola-Audu and his fellow travellers to bring a trade union matter already being handled by the National Industrial Court (NIC) in Abuja to his court.
Justice Osiagor held that since the matter before him is an intra-union dispute, he has no jurisdiction to enter trial moreso because the Applicant himself has taken
his case to the NIC in Abuja where he is praying the court to compel appropriate
organs of the union to revoke his suspension and expulsion and reinstate him as the National President of the Association.
