Court: Ex-Governor Omehia Not Liable to Refund Erroneous Pension Payments
-
Justice Kio ruled that Omehia cannot be held liable for pension funds erroneously paid to him as he was never officially governor.
-
The court said Omehia was an "imposter" governor and precluded from receiving governor pension benefits.
-
Omehia does not have to refund over N696 million erroneously paid to him as pension.
-
The court judgment aligns with a Supreme Court ruling that Omehia was never legitimately the governor.
-
SERAP called on President Tinubu to obey a court judgment ordering recovery of pensions collected by ex-governors.
