Justice Tsoho, after having been filed before and against an application by two members of the House, Nicholas Ossai, and Oker Jev, adopted May 10 as the day to determine if it is not possible, the Challenged proceedings in the case instituted by Jibrin. The legality of his suspension.

The lawmakers' advice said they were dissatisfied with the verdict of the court. The position of the two legislators to seek the hearing of proceedings was supported by the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr. Yakubu Dogara, and the House of Representatives.
The presiding judge interrupted the case until 10 May.
Jibrin's advice, Mr. Femi Falana (SAN), asked the court to discounted the motion for the resignation of proceedings. He said it was on the ground that those who wanted to stop the substantive matter had no locus standi (business) to do it.

He was banned from the premises of the National Assembly during the disciplinary proceedings and has since received no salary or allowance.
