The judgment, delivered by a three-member panel, also upheld an earlier decision by the National Industrial Court and awarded N100,000 against MC Oluomo.

He called on the Attorney-General of the Federation, Lateef Fagbemi, and the Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, to ensure compliance with the judgment.

However, as of press time, no official statement had been issued by the federal government recognizing Baruwa’s leadership.
