</div>The application before me seeks an order of this court staying
execution of this court’s ruling delivered on 28th May, 2009 and for
review of the said ruling.<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>I have read the motion paper together with the supporting
affidavit and all the exhibits. I have also read the two supplementary
affidavits filed in support of the application and all the attached exhibits. I
have read the affidavit of the applicant/respondent in opposition to the
application.<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>It is a fact that this court gave a ruling on 28th May,
2009 against the respondent/applicant in which the court agreed with the
applicant/respondent that the termination of the appointment of the petitioner,
Happy Dabi by the respondent/applicant was wrongful. The court, therefore,
ordered the enforcement of the orders of the applicant/respondent herein.<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>Among the orders given was an order that the respondent/applicant
pays to petitioner, accrued salary, with effect from the date of termination to
the date of determination. That is from August 2006 to February 2007.<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>The respondent/applicant is dissatisfied with the said order of
this court so it has brought this application for review of the order. Its
reason being that in the course of updating the Social Security payment made on
behalf of the petitioner, it came to its notice that immediately her
appointment was terminated she secured employment with the Opportunity
International Sinapi Aba Savings Company. The petitioner was, therefore,
gainfully employed from the date of termination of her employment to the date
of determination of the matter, so the respondent/applicant should not be
ordered to pay the petitioner’s salary for that period.<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>According to the respondent/applicant, it paid the Social Security
payment on behalf of the petitioner up to July 2006 and the Opportunity
International Sinapi Aba Savings Company has since August 2006 been paying it
on behalf of the petitioner. She has, therefore, suffered no loss to warrant
been paid salary for the seven months period.<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>
