CCT trial: Saraki get Nov 12 date at Supreme Court
The Supreme Court has fixed Thursday November 12 for hearing of appeal case of the Senate President Dr. Olubukola Saraki challenging the legality of his trial by federal government at the Code of Conduct Tribunal on alleged false asset declaration.
Saraki is facing a 13-count charge on false assets declaration during the period he was the governor of Kwara State between 2003 and 2011.
At the resumed trial last Thursday, the three Senior Advocates of Nigeria (SAN), Mahmoud Magaji, Ahmed Raji, and Saka Abimbola Isau, were said to have withdrawn their services and left the Justice Danladi Umar-led tribunal abruptly. However, Raji in a statement over the weekend in Abuja, debunked claims that the Saraki legal team walked out on the tribunal.
He clarified that the team only sought and obtained permission to leave the tribunal pending when the issues at the Supreme Court would be settled, which he noted, was granted by the tribunal chairman.
