The parks and gardens owners in Abuja have warned the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Bello Mohammed, against plans to stop the sale of alcohol in parks and gardens in the city, saying the decision is prejudicial to a pending suit in court.

In a letter addressed to the minister on the subject matter, the group of businessmen called on the Minister to uphold the rule of law and call his aides to order and stop him from the enforcement of the closure of parks and gardens by 7 pm in the Federal Capital Territory.
In the letter written through their counsel, Ifeanyi Remy Agu, the group stated:
âRe Suit No: CV/408/2008: Barrister (Mrs) Amanda Pam (Proprietor Suez Garden) & 60 Others -Plaintiffs Vs Hon Minister FCT Defendant: Enforcement of 6 pm Closing Hour by FCTA-Action Sub-Judice.
âAs solicitors to the plaintiffs in the above-stated suit pending before the FCT High Court, we draw your attention to the threatened enforcement of 6 pm closing hour by the proprietor of gardens in the FCT by your Senior Special Assistant (SSA) on Monitoring and Enforcement, Comrade Ikharo Attah which action is sub-Judice of the pending case before the court.
âSuffice it to say that we live in a Democratic society where rule of law prevails against personal desires and brigandage of public servants. The terms of settlements in the above matter has been ordered to be filed by the Honorable court after the parties agreed in terms and principlesâ he added.
Agu noted that âour clients received with the greatest shock the threatened enforcement by the SSA against the claimants. Sir as a Minister in the temple of Justice, we appeal to you to use your good office to call the SSA to order more especially as the case is before a court of law and the parties have agreed on principles.
âThat there was an issue of criminality in one of the gardens does not mean there will be criminality in all other gardens to warrant the enforcement of the regulation of closing by 6 pm.â
