CCT adjourns till May ten as FG re-arraigns Saraki on new charges
Written by Morenike Adebayo on April 29, 2016
The Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) has adjourned till May ten, the trial of Senate President, Dr Bukola Saraki, just as the prosecution filed an amended sixteen count charge against the Senate President. Saraki pleaded not guilty to the new charges.
This came up just after the Chairman of the Code of Conduct Tribunal, Justice Danladi Umar, dismissed the application filed by Saraki seeking Umar’s withdrawal from his trial, on the ground that the application lacks absolute merit. The Senate President has however appealed against the Thursday’s ruling by the CCT chair.
