The Lagos State Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Ade Ipaye, in an announcement on Friday, said an advance had been held up against the court judgment, which proclaimed as unlawful the confinement of natives’ development amid the month to month ecological sanitation exercise.
Ipaye said the state had similarly requested a stay of execution on the said judgment, including that the investigative court had settled April 16, 2015, to manage on the movement for stay of execution.
He said until the Appeal Court decides the case on way or the other, the development limitation approach stays in power.
“In accordance with the established legal principles, it is believed that the status quo will remain and environmental sanitation with movement restriction will continue until the determination of the application,” Ipaye said on Friday. “The court is deemed to know and is obliged to consider all relevant provisions of the Constitution and existing laws before arriving at its judgment. “The above provisions of the Constitution and the law of Lagos State provide for the performance of normal communal or civic obligation for the wellbeing of the community.
“The public health of the community therefore overrides the personal interest of the applicant,”Pedro argued.
According to him, the environmental sanitation exercise and the attendant movement restriction is equal to any normal communal or civil obligation recognised by law.
