In a preliminary objection filed by the Federal Government and Attorney General of Federation (AGF), they described the suit as an abuse of the court process, urging the court to dismiss its process.
The defendants held that Kanu had filed an earlier suit with similar facts before a Federal High Court in Umuahia.
The judge ordered that a hearing notice be issued and served on the defendants who were absent at the proceedings.
