According to him, “the worst experience is the restraining order granted by Justice Usman Mallam Na’abba of Kano State High Court to the none APC Members who suspended the APC National Chairman, Dr Abdullahi Umar Ganduje. One began to wonder if the judiciary is now enjoying the monkey water of politics by destroying the last hope of all citizen”.
