Amedu, a seamstress, also tendered her statements, which she urged the court to adopt. At the resumed hearing of the suit before Justice Ebeye Isele, the seamstress told the court that the termination of her appointment in 2015 by the school was illegal. She claimed that the procedure leading to her termination was illegal, null and void, and not in tandem with the school’s handbook. It would be recalled that the seamstress had dragged the school to court over alleged injuries sustained while performing tasks for the school. The suit indicated that Amedu was asked to get uniforms from a stack of materials in a toilet attached to the school’s dining hall, used as a store. She fell and hit her back on the wash hand slab, which affected her spinal cord. She alleged that the school terminated her appointment in December 2015, and refused to shoulder expenses for her surgeries. The seamstress, therefore, prayed the court to prevail on the school to effect her proper retirement, with all allowances and accrued benefits. In her adopted statements, she also sought the court’s intervention to prevail on the school to pay the medical bills she incurred and take care of her deteriorating health. Reacting to the claims, the school’s counsel, Mr Joseph Nwabufo, told the court he has filed three notices in response to the claimant’s earlier motion. The judge adjourned the case until Oct. 16 for continuation of hearing.]]>
