A Magistrate Court sitting in Yola, Adamawa State, orders African Democratic Congress (ADC) governorship aspirant Omar Suleiman to pay ₦3 million in damages for pasting campaign posters on public structures. The court’s ruling is based on a finding that Suleiman violated Adamawa’s environmental regulations related to the posting of campaign materials. The decision is issued by the Chief Magistrate Court II in Yola, with one report identifying the matter as presided over by Magistrate Musa Adamu. According to the reports, the case is brought before the court over the poster placement, and the court treats the matter as an administrative issue under the relevant regulations. Suleiman’s legal team challenges aspects of the state’s role, alleging that the state government is using its authority in bringing or handling the matter. The court nevertheless rules in favour of the claim that the poster placement amounted to a regulatory violation. The order takes effect following the court’s Thursday judgment, requiring payment of ₦3 million as compensation/damages.
