Executive order 10, unlawful and unconstitutional –S/Court.

The Supreme Court on Friday declared that the Executive Order 10 on the funding of State Judiciary and Legislature is unlawful and unconstitutional.

The majority of a seven-member panel of the court agreed that the President Muhammadu Buhari exceeded his constitutional powers in issuing the EO10.

According to a report in The PUNCH, the EO10 issued by the President was then voided and set aside by six out of the seven members of the panel.

The court also dismissed the N66 billion suit filed by state governors against the Federal Government.
