Breaking News : 36 State Governors Drag President Muhammadu Buhari To Supreme Court.

President Muhammadu Buhari has been dragged to Supreme Court by thirty-six state governors (36) over his Presidential Executive Order No. 00-10 of 2020 sign in May, 2020.

The state averred that the Executive Order Buhari signed had pushed the Federal Government's responsibility of funding both the capital and recurrent expenditures of the state high Court, Sharia Court of Appeal and Customary Court of Appeal, to the state governments.

 They equally argued that except paying the salaries  of judicial officers of the above mentioned Courts, Buhari had since 5th May, 2009, abandoned his responsibility of funding the capital and recurrent expenditure of the respective Courts. 

"Since the 5th of May 2009, the defendant had not funded the capital and recurrent expenditures of the state high Court, Sharia Court of Appeal and the Customary Court of Appeal of the Plaintiff's States, apart from paying only the salaries of the  judicial officers of the said Courts.

The Plaintiff's States have been soley responsible for funding the capital and recurrent expenditures of the state high Court, Sharia Court of Appeal and the Customary Court of Appeal of the Plaintiff's States, which the defendant has failed and /or refused to fund".
