The National Industrial Court in Abuja has dismissed a suit by former spokesperson of the Department of State Services (DSS), Marylyn Ogar challenging her retirement.
Justice Olufunke Anuwe on Monday held that Ogar’s court processes are invalid having been filed two years after President Muhammadu Buhari approved her compulsory retirement.
Marilyn Ogar and 44 others were demoted and compulsorily retired by the Federal Government in September 2015.
The ex-DSS spokesperson had demanded to be reinstated with her with all her ranks, salaries and benefits to the employment of the Federal Government.
She further asked the court to set aside her purported demotion from assistant director to chief security intelligence officer.
