Court strike out suit against JAMB

The national industrial court has struck out a suit filed against the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB), for failure of the claimant to prove that his dismissal was unlawful.

The claimant, Suleyman Sanmi approached the court to declare his dismissal unlawful and sought for reinstatement, payment of his salaries and entitlements.

Sanni told the court that due process of fair hearing was not accorded him before his dismissal, and therefore the terms and condition of service as stated in his employment letter was breached.

Delivering judgement, Justice Rakiya Haastrup, said that the inability of the claimant to tender his letter of employment as material evidence to determine whether or not his dismissal was unlawful truncated his case.
