An Abuja High Court
will on Thursday commence hearing of an application brought before it by eight
women seeking to restrain the First Lady, Mrs Patience Jonathan, from holding
an emergency meeting of African First Ladies Peace Mission (AFLPM) in Abuja on Friday.
The
plaintiffs, who include Nana Module Onwodi, Ekemma Ugborough Arisa, Louisa Ono
Eikhomun and Deborah Oboh, claimed that the said emergency meeting called by
Mrs. Jonathan was called in 'bad faith' as it is aimed at scuttling any chance
of the incoming First Lady, Mrs. Aisha Buhari, becoming the President of AFLPM.
Joined
as defendants in the matter were Juliet Mene, Juliet Pearce, Sonia Adolf and
Kate Duru.
The
matter, which was supposed to come on Wednesday for hearing, could not go on
because the procedure for proof of service was not completed.
