An explosion has just occurred outside the Federal High Court I, Port Harcourt, where Justice Lambo Akanbi reportedly delivered a crucial ruling this morning, July 9.
The Justice in his ruling said the decision of the Amaechi-led administration to go ahead with the conduct of local government election on May 23, was a flagrant abuse of court process and a total disregard for the rule of law.
Akonbi explained that council election defiled the rule of law because it was conducted despite court order asking all parties to maintain status quo.
Speculations have it that the explosion outside the court premises might have been a reaction to the ruling.
Details of the incident are still sketchy as at the time of filing this report.
Meanwhile, Vanguard has reported that there was no casualty recorded in the blast. A source also confirmed that there is heavy presence of security operatives at station road where the High court is located.
