On the restraining order given by the Federal High Court Abuja, Jangebe said when that order was issued, there was no impeachment process against the Deputy Governor.

He said, “You know by the provision of the Constitution, once the impeachment process starts, no court should interfere in the matter.

“Therefore, as far as I’m concerned, that order will not affect this process.”
