BEVERLY HILLS, June 07, (THEWILL) – The Justice Danladi Umar-led Code of Conduct Tribunal, CCT, on Tuesday adjourned the false assets declaration trial of the Senate President, Bukola Saraki till June 15.
The tribunal adjourned hearing to give Saraki’s lead counsel, Kanu Agabi, time to see his physician for routine medical examination.
The prosecution had objected the defence counsel’s request for an adjournment to allow him see his doctor.
Lead Prosecution Counsel, Rotimi Jacobs, said that the court should finish with the cross-examination of its witness Micheal Wetkas this week as planned but the court resolved to give Agabi one week to attend to his health.
“This matter had to be adjourned because of the prevailing exigencies.
“I will let the counsel see his doctors, take his medication and have some rest,” Umar ruled.
