Court has ordered Kano Government to unseal Tiamin Rice mill production company in kano state.
The judgement was given after the kano state government and other respondents in the fundamental human rights suits failed to show up in court for their defence.
Tiamin Rice producer and two others had filed a suit challenging the right of the Kano state government to seal the company over allegation that the rice company was situated too close to a covid-19 isolation center, and also that the fume emitting from the mill is affecting the covid-19 patients.
The court also noted that the accused has earlier given an exemption by the government to produce more food during the lockdown to Nigerians.
Therefore, the court has ordered the state government to unseal the plaintiff’s property that subsequent sealing without proper court order makes up violation of the their fundamental human rights.
