The Code of Conduct Tribunal on Wednesday, adjourned the trial of Senate President Bukola Saraki on the insistence of the prosecution counsel led byRotimi Jacobs, SAN.
According to Premium Times, the tribunal spokesman Ibrahim Alhassandisclosed that Jacobs made the request saying that his prime witness (Michael Wetkas) is to appear before another court to testify against another high-profile personality today in Abuja.
“Tribunal chairman was initially resistant to the request but we later asked them to make a formal request in writing and suggest a date which the tribunal would look into and take decision at its convenience. As I am writing you, I don’t have the knowledge of whether the letter has come to CCT or not,” Alhassan said.
Meanwhile, the House of Representatives has considered and passed an amendment to the Code of Conduct Bureau and Tribunal Act.
